Kybella®
NO DOUBLE CHIN SURGERY
A double chin (medically known as submental fullness) is a common yet under treated issue that affects facial symmetry. It is caused by an accumulation of fat in the front of the neck and just under the chin, making a person look older and heavier. Submental fullness affects men and women of all ages, and can be influenced by factors such as aging, genetics and weight gain. Unfortunately, double chins are extremely resistant to diet and exercise.
Now there is Kybella—the first and only FDA approved double chin injection drug that safely and effectively reduces excess fat under the chin, leaving a smooth and contoured jawline without the necessary recovery time of another double chin fat reduction like liposuction or double chin surgery.

How Kybella Double Chin Reduction Works
The active ingredient in Kybella double chin injection is identical to deoxycholic acid which is a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When the double chin injection is injected into the fat beneath your chin, Kybella causes the destruction of fat cells. The cells die and are absorbed by your body for reduction.
