Kybella is an injection that reduces fat beneath the chin, commonly known as submental fullness or a double chin. This FDA-approved treatment uses deoxycholic acid, which aids the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. Kybella targets and destroys fat cells, which are then metabolized by the body, resulting in a more contoured jawline and neck. The treatment is designed explicitly for submental fat but can also be used in other small fat pockets in the body under professional guidance.
Kybella is suitable for adults suffering from moderate to severe submental fat who prefer a nonsurgical solution. The ideal candidate will be healthy overall and have realistic expectations about the outcome. Most patients see noticeable improvements after two to four sessions, spaced about a month apart. Typically, the results last a long time since the fat cells are permanently destroyed. The results must be maintained, however, by maintaining a stable weight.

Good candidates for Kybella are adults with moderate to severe submental fat who prefer a non-surgical solution and are in good overall health. We can help you determine if this treatment is proper for you.
Patients typically start seeing results after two to four sessions spaced about a month apart. The total effect is usually visible within 2-4 months after the final treatment.
The results of Kybella are long-lasting, as the treated fat cells are permanently destroyed. To preserve the results, it’s essential to maintain a stable weight over time.
After the injection, the treated area may experience swelling, bruising, or numbness, but these side effects typically subside within a few days. In most cases, patients are able to resume their normal activities shortly after the treatment.
Before your Kybella treatment at The Aestheticify, avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements to minimize bruising. After the treatment, apply ice packs to the treated area to reduce swelling and avoid strenuous activities for a few days.
Small injections will be administered to the submental area during your Kybella treatment at The Aestheticify in Watchung, NJ. The procedure usually takes about 15-20 minutes. You may experience some discomfort, but it is generally well-tolerated.
