What is

KYBELLA?

Kybella is the only FDA-approved injectable treatment that destroys fat cells in the treatment area under the chin to improve your profile. In just one appointment, Kybella significantly reduces unsightly fat under the chin area. The result? A younger, more contoured and defined appearance.

How Does

KYBELLA WORK?

Kybella is a simple, non-surgical procedure that permanently destroys fat cells under the chin with a synthetic version of your body’s own digestive enzymes. By working directly at the source of submental fat, Kybella destroys unwanted fat cells while leaving your healthy tissue intact. Once Kybella is injected into these fat cells, they are no longer able to store or accumulate fat, leaving you with a beautifully sculpted neck as a result.

How many Treatments of

KYBELLA WILL I NEED?

Some patients achieve their desired results after just one treatment; however, most patients need two treatments to achieve optimal results. After the first treatment, any additional treatment will be spaced six weeks apart.

FOR KYBELLA?

  • Is over the age of 18
  • Frustrated with a lack of results from diet and exercise

What To Expect From

YOUR KYBELLA TREATMENT

During your consultation, our highly-trained medical experts will assess your concerns and walk you through the process from treatment expectations to aftercare instructions. This treatment takes about 20 minutes and is always performed by a Nurse Practitioner or Physician’s Assistant. Immediately after receiving a Kybella treatment, it is likely to experience swelling in the area, minor redness around the injection sites and some possible bruising. Any post-procedure discomfort that may occur is easily managed with over the counter pain medications and all post treatment side effects will resolve within 7-10 days.

Pre & Post

TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE YOUR TREATMENT

  • Avoid alcoholic beverages at least 24 hours prior to injection to decrease your risk of bruising
  • Avoid taking aspirin or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as Ibuprofen, Advil, Aleve, Fish oil, St. John’s Wort, Ginkgo Biloba, and high doses of vitamin E for 2 weeks prior to procedure if possible, as these may increase your risk of bleeding and bruising with injection
  • It is best to schedule appointments at least 4-6 weeks prior to any important events, such as weddings, vacations, or reunions
  • Eat a small meal or snack and hydrate prior to your appointment as this can help with nerves and decrease the risk of feeling lightheaded
  • Arnica may be taken 3-5 days prior to treatment to reduce the risk of bruising and swelling

AFTER YOUR TREATMENT

  • Common side effects include swelling and bruising to the treatment area. Applying cold compresses, using makeup to cover bruising, and wearing a scarf or turtleneck can help cover these side effects until they subside
  • For minor pain and swelling, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen, Advil, Motrin or Aleve can be taken, as long as an individual’s personal medical history allows for these medications
  • Ice may be applied to the area for 15 minutes every couple of hours to help reduce minor pain and swelling
  • Do not apply makeup to the area treated for the first 24 hours following treatment
