THE KYBELLA® TREATMENT SESSION

Each procedure is relatively quick and takes about a few minutes. The treatment sites will be carefully cleaned and marked out, and then Kybella® injections will be delivered to the marked sites. Each Kybella® injection has 10 mg of deoxycholic acid. The number of injections and dose of product required will depend on the amount of fat under the chin and the profile you would like to achieve.

Keep in mind that you will need multiple treatment sessions to adequately reduce the fat under the chin. Sessions must be spaced at least a month apart and a minimum of 3-6 sessions may be required.

KYBELLA® AFTERCARE

There is minimal downtime required after each Kybella® session. Patients should avoid strenuous activity and exercise for 24 hours following treatment. Swelling and bruising may be present at the injection sites, but these are temporary and will go away within a few weeks. Some patients do experience bullfrog-like swelling immediately after the procedure that will subside as the treatment takes effect. Swelling and bruising can be controlled with icing of the treatment area for 48 hours after the procedure.



RESULTS

Results are noticeable within 4 to 6 weeks following your treatment. You will start to see full results over a three to sixth month period. Since the results are permanent, there is no need for any maintenance visits later.
