What is Kybella?
Kybella is a naturally occurring injectable substance that permanently destroys fat cells without invasive surgery! It is made out of deoxycholic acid, which is the same acid our gut system uses to break down fat. Kybella is injected under the neck to improve neck contour. Treatments involve multiple small injections of material over the target area and fat slowly dissolves over 4 to 8 weeks. Some swelling is normal, which typically resolves in 1-2 weeks. We recommend repeat injections every 6 weeks until your desired contour is achieved. No scarring or post-treatment surgical garments are needed with Kybella!
