What is Kybella?

Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment composed of synthetic deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance that helps break down dietary fat.

When injected, Kybella destroys fat cells in the chin. Once these cells are eliminated, they cannot store or accumulate fat again, providing clients with long-lasting results.

Good Candidates for Kybella?

In most cases, anyone seeking to eliminate stubborn, unattractive fat under the chin is an ideal candidate for the Kybella® procedure. However, it’s important that candidates have no major physical or psychological health issues, have reasonable expectations for treatment outcomes, and have a thorough understanding of how Kybella® works.

People of any age, gender, ethnicity, and skin type can experience good results with Kybella®. The only people who are not ideal candidates for the procedure are nursing or pregnant women, people with clotting disorders, and those with suppressed immunity or active infections.

If you’ve had other injections or cosmetic surgery in the treatment area within the past 4 months, Dr. Batniji may recommend an alternative treatment. plan In addition, if you have excess skin or significant scarring in the area, the procedure may not be a good fit for you, and Dr. Batniji may suggest a different avenue for addressing your submental fat.

Why Undergo a Kybella Treatment?

There are several reasons why you should consider treatment with Kybella® at Batniji Facial Plastic Surgery in Newport Beach:

  • It melts fat quickly, comfortably, and effectively, without the need for general anesthesia or downtime.
  • Kybella® will help to accentuate the natural beauty and shape of your face, creating a smoother, younger, and more attractive appearance.
  • It has a high success rate. In clinical studies, approximately 80% of people who received a Kybella® treatment rated their results very positively.
  • Kybella® injection cost is much more affordable than plastic surgery.
  • The treatment requires no recovery period and will not disrupt your routine.
  • After Kybella® has eliminated the unwanted fat cells, you’ll no longer be able to accumulate fat in the treated area. For this reason, no additional treatments are necessary.
  • With Kybella® injections, side effects are normally mild and short-lived.

A Breakdown of a Kybella Treatment

Before starting your treatment, your face will be thoroughly cleansed, and, if you choose, a topical anesthetic will be applied. However, while the injections may cause brief localized discomfort, it is usually mild enough that most people don’t require an anesthetic.

Afterward, Dr. Batniji will carefully administer measured doses of Kybella® beneath your chin, ensuring even fat reduction and the most natural-looking results. The entire procedure can be completed in about 30 minutes.

What Should I Expect Immediately After the Treatment?

Because Kybella® is minimally invasive and doesn’t require anesthesia, there is no need to alter your normal routine after treatment. You may continue your daily routine as usual, including exercise.

While Kybella® can melt fat and provide significant results, it does not do so immediately. In most cases, you will begin to notice a difference after two treatments. The full scope of the results typically becomes apparent over the following weeks as the fat continues to dissolve.

Unlike many other treatments for submental fat, Kybella® ensures that it will not return. No additional treatments are required after the first series. This ensures a more youthful chin permanently.
