Patients struggling with a double chin will want to learn about the benefits of a reliable treatment known as Kybella. Kybella is the first—and only—injectable treatment that has been approved by the FDA to treat and reduce submental fullness. This injectable, formulated with deoxycholic acid, can greatly enhance one’s appearance from the front as well as from a profile position. The deoxycholic acid breaks down the fat cells underneath the chin and allows the body to naturally flush them out over the course of several months. Patients will notice a gradual improvement in the fat underneath the chin and over time, can achieve the desired results of a more chiseled, less full chin and neck area.

Most patients will benefit from two to three sessions of Kybella injections spaced several weeks apart to achieve the most desired effects. Each session will dramatically reduce fat in the area, but the results do take time to achieve. Patients may visit Rêvée Aesthetics for their treatments and have photos taken by our team so they can physically see the changes that have occurred.

Because fat cells are not replenished once they are lost, the results of Kybella are long-lasting. The existing fat cells can still increase in size, so patients should be active and following a healthy diet to ensure the results of the initial injections are permanent.
