Kybella™ FAQ
Kybella™ is the only FDA approved injectable designed to eliminate submental fat, also known as a double chin. It can also be injected into bra bulge, saddle bag area, love handle area and upper back.
Approved by the FDA to safely eliminate submental fat, Kybella™ holds few risks when used by an experienced provider. The most common side effects of a Kybella™ treatment can include swelling, bruising, and temporary numbness.
While Kybella™ is not considered painful; there may be mild discomfort and pressure below the chin. For this reason, a topical or local anesthetic can be used prior to treatment.
Depending on the desired results and severity of submental fat, between two and six Kybella™ treatments are necessary for optimal results.
Kybella™ contains Deoxycholic Acid, a naturally occurring molecule, used by the body to rid unwanted fat. When applied to the target area, Kybella™ will dissolve fat cells, which are then safely metabolized by the body.
Kybella™ has been approved by the FDA for patients over the age of 18. The ideal candidate for Kybella™ will be in good health, fully understand the treatment, and hold reasonable expectations for their results.
At The Skin Loft Med Spa, a Kybella™ treatment session will take less than 30 minutes to perform.
