What is Kybella®?

Double Chin Removal Solutions in Connecticut

Kybella® is a groundbreaking injectable treatment specifically designed to reduce submental fat, commonly known as a "double chin." Kybella® uses a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that helps break down and absorb dietary fat. This FDA-approved treatment targets and destroys fat cells under the chin, resulting in a more defined and contoured jawline without the need for surgery.

More About Kybella®

How long does it take for Kybella to work?

Kybella results typically begin to appear within 4 to 8 weeks after the first treatment. The active ingredient, deoxycholic acid, works by breaking down fat cells in the treated area, which are then naturally eliminated by the body. While some improvement may be noticeable after one session, most people require multiple treatments (usually 2 to 4) spaced about a month apart to achieve optimal results. Full effects are usually visible around 3 to 6 months after completing the recommended course of treatments.


What is better: Kybella or CoolSculpting®?

The choice between Kybella and CoolSculpting® depends on your specific goals and the area being treated. Kybella is an injectable treatment specifically designed to reduce fat under the chin (submental fat) and is ideal for patients looking to eliminate a double chin. CoolSculpting®, on the other hand, is a non-invasive procedure that uses controlled cooling to freeze and eliminate fat cells in larger areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks.

Kybella is better for targeting small, specific areas like the chin, while CoolSculpting® is more versatile and can treat larger areas. Both treatments provide permanent fat reduction, but Kybella requires multiple injections, while CoolSculpting® involves applying an external device. Consulting with a provider will help you determine which treatment is best based on your needs.


How many Kybella treatments are needed?

The number of Kybella treatments needed varies from person to person based on the amount of fat under the chin and the desired outcome. Most people require 2 to 4 sessions for noticeable results, but some may need up to 6 treatments. Sessions are spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart to allow the body time to naturally eliminate the fat cells. Each session involves multiple injections, and your provider will assess your progress after each treatment to determine if additional sessions are necessary. Once the desired fat reduction is achieved, no further treatments are typically required.
