Kybella ®

What is Kybella:

Kybella is a FDA approved prescription injectable medication that reduces the appearance of excess fat under the chin, also known as a double chin. it is safely and successfully on those seeking a non-surgical method of removing their double chin. Kybella is a synthetic formulation of deoxycholic acid, bile found naturally within the intestinal tract.

Once fat cells have been destroyed, neocollagenesis (the creation of new collagen) is kickstarted. Increased collagen production in the treated area results in firmer skin beneath the chin, creating a subtle lift.

Best for:

People with mild to moderate skin excess and a double chin caused.

Contraindication:

People with significant excess skin, those who are pregnant or nursing, or those with infections or medical conditions at the injection site.

Results:

🍃 Results are usually noticeable after several weeks.

🍃 Permanent results after a series of treatments.
