KYBELLA CHIN FAT DESTRUCTION

Kybella is the first FDA-approved, injectable drug used to reduce the appearance of submental fat, more commonly known as a double chin, by physically destroying fat cells.
Sometimes, even with diet or exercise, the unwanted fullness beneath your chin may not go away, and it could make you appear older or heavier than you actually are. When Kybella is injected into the fat beneath your chin it destroys fat cells. Once destroyed, those cells cannot store or accumulate fat.

SUBMENTAL FULLNESS OR “DOUBLE CHIN”

Sub-mental fullness, sometimes referred to as “double chin”, is a common yet under treated facial aesthetic condition. It can impact a broad range of adults, including both men and women, and can be influenced by several factors such as aging, genetics and weight gain, and is often resistant to diet and exercise alone. If you’re bothered by submental fullness, you’re not alone. According to a 2015 survey conducted by the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS):
  • 67% of people said they’re bothered by under-the-chin fullness, or double chin
  • People are just as bothered by under-the-chin fullness as they are by lines and wrinkles around and under their eyes
