After much anticipation, Kybella has received FDA approval and is now available at our clinic.
Individuals dealing with a double chin no longer have to undergo invasive surgery or liposuction to enhance their appearance.
Kybella offers a permanent reduction in fat in the submental area. Eligible candidates can bid farewell to their double chin, revealing a more youthful profile.
During the procedure, one of our dermatologists administers a solution that dissolves fat cells after applying local anesthesia. The dissolved fat is naturally absorbed by the body. Most individuals will require 2-4 treatments, spaced four to six weeks apart, to achieve their desired results.
Common Temporary Side Effects: Local swelling, bruising, discomfort, numbness, redness, and firmness
Lasting Results: The treated fat cells are permanently eliminated
Number of Treatments: Typically 2-4 sessions on average
Cost: $1200 per treatment
