Sculpt a more defined profile with KYBELLA®, the only FDA-approved injectable treatment that permanently reduces fat beneath your chin. At Advanced Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Center, you can target stubborn areas of fullness without surgery. This quick, non-invasive solution helps you achieve a slimmer, more balanced look with a few simple injections.
Refine Your Jawline Without Surgery
KYBELLA is an FDA-approved injectable formulated to permanently reduce fat beneath your chin, often referred to as a “double chin.” It contains a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in your body that helps break down and absorb dietary fat. When injected into the targeted areas, KYBELLA destroys fat cells, preventing them from storing or accumulating fat. This non-surgical treatment provides a safe and effective way to refine your jawline and achieve a more contoured, youthful profile.
What Does KYBELLA Treat?
- Submental fullness, often referred to as a “double chin”
- Stubborn fat beneath the chin that does not respond to diet or exercise
- Excess fat creating a less defined jawline or profile
How Does KYBELLA Work?
KYBELLA works by using deoxycholic acid, a substance your body naturally produces to break down dietary fat. When injected into the area beneath your chin, it targets and destroys fat cells.
Once these cells are broken down, your body naturally processes and eliminates them through its metabolic system. Because the treated fat cells can no longer store or accumulate fat, the results are permanent. Over time, you’ll achieve a more defined and contoured jawline.
What Are the Benefits Of KYBELLA?

What Happens During the KYBELLA Procedure?
During your KYBELLA procedure, our providers first examine the area beneath your chin and mark precise injection sites to ensure accuracy. A topical numbing agent or ice may be applied to maximize comfort. Using a fine needle, KYBELLA is then carefully injected into the targeted fat beneath your chin. The process typically takes 15 to 20 minutes, following which you can return home the same day with little to no interruption to your usual routine.
What Is the Recovery Process Like After KYBELLA?
After KYBELLA, you may notice swelling, bruising, or tenderness under your chin, which typically resolves within a week. Most patients can return to daily activities right away, though you should avoid strenuous exercise for 24 to 48 hours. The results appear gradually as your body eliminates the destroyed fat cells over several weeks. You may need two to four sessions spaced a few weeks apart for optimal results. The treated fat cells cannot return, but the existing fat cells can still expand, so you must maintain a healthy lifestyle.
