What is KYBELLA?

Many adults dislike their "double chin" but are reluctant to try surgery. KYBELLA is an FDA-approved nonsurgical treatment that can eliminate fat without invasive surgery. KYBELLA is injected into the skin beneath your chin, where it works to dissolve stubborn fat pockets.

How can KYBELLA improve my appearance?

The medical term for fat beneath the chin is "submental fullness." While submental fullness is a normal phenomenon, it can significantly impact your self-confidence. A double chin can be embarrassing and frustrating. You may feel that submental fullness alters the shape of your face or makes you look older than you really are.

KYBELLA can help. This prescription medication contains a substance called deoxycholic acid (DA). DA occurs naturally in your body, where it helps break down and reabsorb fat.

When injected into the chin area, KYBELLA destroys unwanted fat cells. Your body then clears the damaged cells away. After a KYBELLA treatment, you can enjoy a smoother, more contoured jawline.

What happens during a KYBELLA treatment?

Before receiving KYBELLA at Wellness Med Art, you meet with your provider. They examine your skin and discuss your treatment goals. You receive a customized care plan if they agree that KYBELLA is right for you.

It doesn't take long to complete a KYBELLA treatment. Most patients receive several shots at once, but the process only takes about 15 minutes. Depending on your treatment goals, you may need up to six treatments. KYBELLA treatments are generally scheduled at least one month apart to allow your body time to clear away destroyed fat cells. 

Your provider can help you decide how many treatments you need. Wellness Med Art’s friendly, helpful office staff will assist you in scheduling your future treatments.

What results can I expect?

Individual results may vary and can take some time to appear. But most KYBELLA patients notice significant improvements within just a few weeks. Many patients are surprised to discover how jawline enhancement improves the appearance of their entire face. 

KYBELLA can also be combined with other aesthetic treatments, and the team at Wellness Med Art can develop a treatment strategy that addresses all your concerns.
