Kybella Injections to Remove a Double Chin

A double chin can make you look older and heavier; it can be almost impossible to remove chin and upper neck fat with diet or exercise.

KYBELLA® is a new FDA approved injectable double chin treatment for submental fullness (double chin) that can significantly improve chin and neck contouring without the invasiveness and downtime of surgical options.

What is KYBELLA®?

The active ingredient in KYBELLA® is synthetic Deoxycholic acid. It is naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of fat. When injected into the fat below the chin, Kybella destroys fat cells, resulting in a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin and upper neck. Once destroyed, these cells can no longer store or accumulate fat, so further treatment is not expected once you reach your desired aesthetic goal.

What to expect with KYBELLA®?

Before starting treatment, Dr Goulko will examine the area under and around your chin to determine if Kybella is right for you. Then, she will tailor your treatment to the amount of fat under the chin and your aesthetic goals.

How is KYBELLA® administered?

This double chin treatment can only be administered by a KYBELLA® – trained doctor. Dr Goulko from Dermatology & Laser Surgery Center, Fort Lee, New Jersey has extensive training and years of experience performing Kybella treatment.

At each treatment, you will receive multiple small injections under your chin, and the injection process takes about 15 to 20 minutes. The exact number of injections will depend on the amount of fat you have under your chin and your desired profile.

A topical numbing cream is applied thirty minutes before the procedure to attain minimal discomfort for patient.

How many KYBELLA® double chin treatments needed?

Since everyone’s chin profile is different, the number of treatments varies from patient to patient. Many patients experience visible results in two to four KYBELLA® double chin treatments spaced at least one month apart.

Potential side affects KYBELLA® may include some localized swelling at the treated area, minor discomfort, bruising and numbness for few days
