Kybella

The active ingredient in Kybella is deoxycholic acid, a naturally-occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into the fat beneath your chin, Kybella causes the destruction of these fat cells. Once destroyed, those cells cannot store or accumulate fat.

Many patients experience visible results in 2 to 4 weeks. During your treatment sessions, the Beauty Now professionals will administer Kybella into the fat under your chin using multiple injections and a very tiny needle. Most patients find the injections themselves nearly painless but there is a mild warm or “throbbing” sensation in the neck/ chin area for about 5-15 minutes after the injection. Cold compresses are very helpful and given right after the injection.

Once the desired aesthetic response is achieved with Kybella, re-treatment is not expected.

A professional consultation is necessary to determine the exact cost of a Kybella treatment, as each patient has different needs and preferences.

Kybella is priced by the vial, and each costs about $600. Some patients require only one vial to complete their treatment, but those with a greater amount of submental fullness may need up to three to four vials to achieve the desired results.

In addition, the number of treatment sessions varies. Most patients need more than a single Kybella session to erase a double chin or treat sagging jowls. We recommend patients plan for three treatments spaced about six to eight weeks apart. Kybella is ideal for patients with mild to moderate fat, for those with moderate to more severe fat, liposuction of the neck will provide a more effective result. The cost of Kybella for multiple treatments is often similar to the cost of a neck liposuction procedure.

Kybella injections are safe and effective and can help you get rid of excess under-chin fat and provide a more contoured jawline. Contact us today to schedule a consultation to learn more about Kybella treatments.
