Kybella is a prescription medicine used in adults to improve the appearance and profile of moderate to severe fat below the chin also called double chin.
It is not known if Kybella is safe and effective for the treatment of fat outside of the submental area or in children under 18 years of age.
Function and Use: Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment specifically designed to reduce submental fat, commonly known as a double chin.
It contains deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat.
When injected into the submental area, Kybella targets and destroys fat cells, resulting in a noticeable reduction in chin fullness and improved contouring of the jawline.
Method: The treatment involves a series of injections administered directly into the submental fat pad using a fine needle.
The injections are strategically placed to target the areas of excess fat.
Kybella works by disrupting the fat cell membrane, causing them to break down and be absorbed by the body’s natural metabolic processes over time.
