Kybella®

At SoCal MD + Aesthetics in Fullerton, California, we offer Kybella® treatments to help you achieve a more defined and contoured jawline by reducing submental fat, commonly known as a double chin. Kybella® is a non-surgical, FDA-approved injectable treatment that effectively destroys fat cells under the chin, resulting in a slimmer and more sculpted appearance. Our experienced healthcare team provides personalized Kybella® treatments to ensure optimal results and enhance your natural beauty.

Understanding Kybella®

What is Kybella®?

Kybella® (deoxycholic acid) is a synthetic form of a naturally occurring molecule in the body that helps break down and absorb dietary fat. When injected into the submental area, Kybella® destroys fat cells, preventing them from storing or accumulating fat. Once these fat cells are destroyed, they are naturally metabolized and eliminated by the body, resulting in a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin.

Benefits of Kybella®

Kybella® offers numerous benefits, including:

• Non-Surgical: A minimally invasive treatment that requires no surgery or downtime.
• Permanent Results: Once the fat cells are destroyed, they do not regenerate, providing long-lasting results.
• Customized Treatment: Tailored to meet your specific aesthetic goals and needs.
• Quick and Convenient: Treatments typically take about 15-30 minutes, making it easy to fit into your busy schedule.
• Boosts Confidence: Enhances your profile and boosts your confidence by eliminating unwanted submental fat.

Initial Consultation

Your Kybella® journey begins with an initial consultation, where we will:

• Discuss Your Goals: Talk about your aesthetic goals and expectations for the treatment.
• Review Medical History: Assess your medical history to ensure Kybella® is a safe and suitable option for you.
• Examine Your Submental Area: Evaluate the submental area to determine the appropriate treatment plan.

Personalized Treatment Plan

Based on your consultation, we will develop a personalized treatment plan that may include:

• Targeted Injections: Administering Kybella® to specific areas under the chin to reduce fat.
• Customized Dosage: Determining the appropriate dosage to achieve optimal results while minimizing the risk of side effects.
• Follow-Up Appointments: Scheduling follow-up visits to monitor your results and make any necessary adjustments.

The Kybella® Procedure

The Kybella® procedure is quick and straightforward. During your treatment, you can expect:

• Preparation: Cleaning the treatment area and applying a topical anesthetic if needed to ensure your comfort.
• Injection: Using a fine needle, our skilled healthcare provider will administer small amounts of Kybella® into the targeted fat cells under the chin.
• Post-Treatment Care: Providing post-treatment care instructions to help you achieve the best results and minimize any potential side effects.

Aftercare and Results

After your Kybella® treatment, you can return to your normal activities immediately. Some aftercare tips include:

• Avoid Touching the Area: Refrain from touching or massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours.
• Stay Upright: Avoid lying down for a few hours after the treatment to prevent Kybella® from migrating to unintended areas.
• Apply Ice Packs: Use ice packs to reduce swelling and discomfort.

Results typically become visible within a few weeks, with optimal results appearing after multiple treatment sessions. Most patients require two to four treatments spaced at least one month apart to achieve their desired results.
