Kybella® (deoxycholic acid) is a prescription medicine used in adults to improve the appearance and profile of moderate to severe fat below the chin (submental fat), also called “double chin”. Kybella® is administered as a series of injections to the treatment area under the chin, and destroys fat cells by lysing them. The results are gradual and usually multiple treatment sessions are necessary to achieve the optimal results. Since everyone’s chin area is different, Dr. Patel will tailor the treatment to you.
