KYBELLA Injectable for Double Chin Reduction
KYBELLA® is an injection that is used to reduce the appearance of a double chin. This innovative product offers patients an option for reducing stubborn chin fat and obtaining a more defined facial profile. KYBELLA is the first and only FDA-approved injectable used to treat and reduce fat beneath the chin. KYBELLA’s non-invasive nature can give patients the results they desire without having to go through surgery.
How KYBELLA Works
KYBELLA’s active ingredient, synthetic deoxycholic acid, acts as a replacement to the body’s naturally occurring deoxycholic acid, which aids in the breakdown and absorption of fat. KYBELLA’s revolutionary formula works by targeting submental fat cells underneath the chin, ensuring they can no longer store or accumulate fat.
KYBELLA® is injected into the fat underneath the chin by one of our injection specialists. Most patients will require 2-5 treatments to get their desired results and the fat cell removal is permanent. A KYBELLA® injection requires little to no downtime, and most patients are able to return to their daily activities immediately following the procedure.

KYBELLA® Reviews
Dr. Singh is outstanding. I feel incredibly blessed to have been referred to her for my breast reconstruction surgery after a bilateral mastectomy for breast cancer. Not only is she a highly-skilled and talented surgeon, but she a loving and compassionate human being who truly cares about her patients. She made the process comfortable and easy. I feel and look fantastic and owe it all to her. I subsequently saw her for a short series of Kybella treatments and am very happy with the results. She is an expert, a professional and if I could score her ten stars, I would!
Fantastic! I had a wonderful experience with the staff and doctors. I would definitely recommend for anyone who is looking for a surgeon or just light maintenance like Medical Spa treatments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does KYBELLA hurt?
The injections themselves feel like a quick pinch, but you may experience a mild burning or stinging sensation as the product starts working on the fat cells. This discomfort typically lasts a few minutes and can be managed with ice packs or over-the-counter pain relievers. Some swelling and tenderness in the area are completely normal and actually indicate that the treatment is working. Most people find that any discomfort fades within a few days, making the experience well worth the results.
Can KYBELLA be used on areas other than the chin?
Although KYBELLA is FDA-approved for treating submental fat under the chin, some providers may use it off-label for other small pockets of stubborn fat. Areas like bra bulges, jowls, and even the lower abdomen have been treated with KYBELLA, but you should consult with an experienced injector to determine if it's safe and effective for your specific needs. Since KYBELLA is designed for small, localized fat deposits, it's not a replacement for traditional fat reduction procedures like liposuction.
How long does it take to see results after KYBELLA injections?
KYBELLA doesn't provide instant results, so patience is key. Most people start to see a noticeable reduction in fat around four to six weeks after their first treatment as the body naturally eliminates the destroyed fat cells. Because the process is gradual, it allows for a more natural-looking change, avoiding the dramatic shift that can come with surgery. After completing the recommended number of treatments, your results can last indefinitely as long as you maintain a stable weight.
