Below are commonly asked questions about Kybella
What is Kybella and how does it work?
Kybella is an injectable treatment that uses synthetic deoxycholic acid to break down and destroy fat cells under the chin, helping reduce the appearance of a double chin.
How many Kybella treatments will I need?
Most patients see optimal results after 2 to 4 treatments, but up to 6 sessions may be recommended depending on the amount of submental fat and desired outcome.
Is Kybella a permanent solution?
Yes — once the fat cells are destroyed, they can no longer store or accumulate fat, meaning the results are permanent with a stable weight.

Downtime is minimal, though swelling, redness, and tenderness are common for a few days post-treatment. Some people experience swelling that lasts up to a week or more.
Who is a good candidate for Kybella?
Healthy adults with moderate fat beneath the chin who are looking for a non-surgical solution are ideal candidates. It’s not recommended for those with loose skin or poor skin elasticity.
Are there any side effects or risks?
The most common side effects include swelling, bruising, numbness, and mild discomfort. Serious side effects are rare but can include nerve injury or trouble swallowing — your provider will discuss all risks during your consultation.
