Kybella is a non-surgical treatment designed to reduce submental fullness, or a double chin. It's FDA-approved to dissolve fat cells beneath the chin and restore a contoured and youthful neck line.
How does Kybella work?
Kybella mimics your body's natural ability to absorb fat. It is a synthetic version of deoxycholic acid, which naturally occurs in the human body to break down dietary fats.
When injected beneath the skin, the targeted fat cells are destroyed and no longer capable of storing fat. Your body then eliminates them naturally, producing slow, steady and long-lasting results.

What to expect at your appointment
When you arrive at Dr. Reinblatt's office for your Kybella session, she will begin by applying cold packs to your neck, along with a local anesthetic to ensure your comfort. She will then place multiple small injections directly beneath the surface of your skin.
Immediately after your treatment, ice packs will once again be applied to minimize swelling and discomfort. Once at home, you will be instructed to continue to apply ice and take over-the-counter pain medication to reduce pain and swelling.
FAQ Kybella
How many Kybella treatments will I need?
The number of treatments you need will depend on the extent of your submental fullness and your personal treatment goals. However, you should not receive more than 6 treatments spaced one month apart, and most patients are able to accomplish their desired chin profile by then.
