What Is Kybella?

Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment specifically designed to target and eliminate submental fat beneath the chin, commonly known as a "double chin." 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 targeted area, Kybella destroys fat cells permanently, resulting in a more contoured and defined jawline without the need for surgery or extensive downtime.

Benefits of Kybella

Kybella in Boston at Ahn Point Aesthetic Medicine offers numerous advantages for those looking to enhance their facial profile:

  • Permanent Fat Reduction: Kybella destroys fat cells under the chin, providing a lasting solution to submental fullness.
  • Non-Surgical Procedure: Achieve a more sculpted jawline without invasive surgery or incisions.
  • Minimal Downtime: With Kybella, you can resume your regular activities shortly after treatment.
  • Customized Treatment Plans: Each Kybella session is tailored to your specific needs and aesthetic goals.

  • Safe and Effective: Kybella is FDA-approved and has been proven to be a safe method for reducing chin fat.

What to Expect During Your Kybella Treatment in Boston

Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Ahn to discuss your aesthetic goals and assess your facial anatomy. During the treatment session, a series of small injections of Kybella are administered into the targeted fat beneath your chin. The procedure typically takes about 15 to 20 minutes and may involve multiple sessions spaced about a month apart, depending on your individual needs. Mild discomfort, swelling, or bruising at the injection site is common but usually subsides within a few days. There is minimal downtime, allowing you to return to your daily activities shortly after the procedure. Over the following weeks, your body naturally eliminates the destroyed fat cells, revealing a more contoured and defined jawline.
