Kybella $450 / Vial
Kybella is an injectable used to improve the appearance of moderate to severe fat below the chin – commonly known as the double chin. Kybella is the first-of-its-kind, nonsurgical option to permanently destroy fat cells in the treated area improving the chin profile. A series of treatments are individually tailored to you and your aesthetic goals.
The active ingredient in Kybella is synthetic deoxycholic acid – which is a naturally occurring molecule that helps break down fat in the body. Fat cells beneath the chin are broken down with each injection. Over time these cells are cleared away through the natural processes of your body – leaving you with a noticeable reduction of fullness under the chin.
Recommended 1-4 treatments based on individual, averaging 1-2 vials per treatment.
