Kybella

Reduce 'double chin' and contour along the jawline with the only FDA-approved injectable designed to permanently diminish and enhance the appearance of resistant fat beneath the chin.

What is it?

Kybella® is an FDA-approved treatment designed to target and eliminate stubborn submental fat, commonly known as a double chin. Kybella's active ingredient, synthetic deoxycholic acid, dissolves fat cells, resulting in a more contoured and defined jawline. This FDA-approved injectable treatment offers a non-surgical alternative to traditional liposuction, providing lasting results with minimal downtime.


Once destroyed, these cells can no longer store or accumulate fat, providing lasting results without the need for further treatment once your aesthetic goals are achieved.

What to expect

One of our skilled injectors at The Skin Care Center will perform your Kybella treatment, which involves administering small injections beneath the chin, typically completed in under 30 minutes. Following the treatment, Kybella gradually breaks down fat cells over several weeks, with most patients require 2 to 3 treatments to achieve their desired outcome.


Contact us today at our Lake Forest, Glenview or Chicago, Illinois, clinics to see if Kybella is right for you.

KYBELLA CAN HELP WITH THESE CONDITIONS:

If you’re self-conscious about under-chin fullness and would like to have a more defined profile sans surgery, Kybella® may be right for you. Treatments help you look pounds-thinner and years younger. Consultation is required prior to treatment.

Patients who also have lax skin below the chin may want to consider adding skin tightening treatments for more dramatic results.

The actual injection process usually takes only 15-20 minutes.

Although there is minimal downtime required after your Kybella® appointment, many patients find themselves self-conscious about post-treatment swelling. We often recommend having the treatment done on a Thursday or Friday afternoon to allow swelling, bruising, and numbness to subside over the weekend. Swelling typically peaks at 20-28 hours post-treatment. Occasionally swelling can take up to 1 week to 10 days to resolve.
