KYBELLA
What is Kybella?
Kybella is an FDA approved injectable made of deoxycholic acid, used in the submental fat (below the chin) to gradually dissolve fat cells. It will not destroy fat cells that develop after the procedure, so it is important to also commit to a healthy diet and exercise to see the best results.
Swelling is an expected side effect of Kybella and is generally the worst after the first injection. The swelling should subside within 4 weeks from injection. Most patients achieve desired results with 2-4 sessions, with as many as 6 required depending on patient goals and provider discretion.
TREATMENT
​The best results are seen with multiple treatments and a personalized treatment plan will be created for each individual based on amount of submental fat. An average of 2-4 treatments are needed in order to see optimal results but it can take up to 6 treatments. These treatments are spaced out by at least 4 weeks. The number of vials needed will depend on the patient, but in general a higher number of vials are needed at the beginning of treatment and then decrease with each session. For example, a patient may require 4 vials for the first treatment, 3 vials for the second treatment, and then 2 vials for subsequent treatments. Again, this is different for each person based on depth of submental fat, area of submental fat, and desired treatment effects.
