Kybella for a Defined Chin

One of the most flattering features of a person’s profile is a chiseled, defined chin. If you have excess fat under your chin or a double chin, you may feel self-conscious about your profile and overall appearance. While surgery is an option, there is a non-surgical alternative: Kybella.

What Is Kybella?

Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable designed to destroy fat cells under the chin. When injected into the submental fat, Kybella dissolves the fat, leaving a more defined and contoured profile.

How Many Kybella Treatments Will I Need?

During your initial consultation, our staff will determine how many treatments are needed. While some patients may require up to six treatments, most see visible results in two to four sessions spaced one month apart.

Is Kybella Right for Me?

Kybella is typically suitable for healthy patients who:

  • Are bothered by the fat under their chin
  • Feel their double chin makes them look older or heavier than they are
  • Do not want surgery
  • Maintain a healthy lifestyle but cannot eliminate the double chin through diet and exercise

How Does Kybella Work?

The main ingredient in Kybella is synthetic deoxycholic acid, which naturally breaks down and absorbs dietary fat. When injected beneath the chin, it destroys fat cells to create a noticeably thinner profile.

How Many People Have Been Treated With Kybella?

Kybella has been the focus of over 20 clinical studies involving more than 1,600 patients.

How Long Does Kybella Last?

One major benefit of Kybella is that it destroys fat cells, making the results permanent in most cases. Maintenance treatments are generally not required.

Is Kybella Expensive?

The cost of Kybella varies by provider. To save on treatments, consider enrolling in the Brilliant Distinctions Rewards Program, which allows you to earn points on each session and redeem them for future savings.

What Are the Side Effects of Kybella?

Common side effects include swelling, pain, numbness, bruising, redness, and firmness around the injection site. Less common complications may include ulcers, hair loss, difficulty swallowing, jaw injury causing uneven smile or facial weakness, and tissue necrosis at the injection site.
