KYBELLA®

About KYBELLA®

KYBELLA® is the only FDA-approved injectable treatment that destroys fat cells in the treatment area under the chin to improve your profile.

KYBELLA® may be right for you if:

  • You’re bothered (unhappy, self-conscious, embarrassed) by fat under the chin, also known as submental fullness
  • You feel the condition makes you look older or heavier than you actually are
  • You don’t want to have surgery
  • You eat well and exercise, but submental fullness does not go away

How KYBELLA® Works

KYBELLA® destroys fat cells when injected into the fat beneath the chin. This results in a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin. Once destroyed, these cells can no longer store or accumulate fat, allowing you to reach your desired aesthetic.

What to Expect with KYBELLA®

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

How Many KYBELLA® Treatment Sessions Will I Need?

Since everyone’s chin profile is different, the number of treatments varies from patient to patient. Your healthcare specialist will help determine how many treatment sessions you need based on the amount and distribution of your submental fat and your personal treatment goals. Each KYBELLA® treatment session is given at least 1 month apart, and you should not receive more than 6 treatments. In clinical studies, 59% of patients received 6 treatments.

About Submental Fullness

Do you have some extra fullness beneath your chin? Maybe it’s something you’ve had your whole life, something that developed over the years, or something you noticed recently. This is a condition called submental fullness, which some people refer to as “double chin.”

What Causes Submental Fullness?

Both men and women may be affected by submental fullness, which can be caused by:

  • Weight gain
  • Genetics
  • Aging

 

You don’t have to be overweight to have fullness under your chin. And sometimes, no matter how much you exercise or diet, the condition may not go away.

If you’re interested in a nonsurgical way to reduce submental fullness, also known as a double chin, KYBELLA® may be right for you. KYBELLA® is a first-of-its-kind injectable treatment for adults with submental fullness that destroys fat cells under the chin to improve your profile.
