Kybella (deoxycholic acid) is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that permanently destroys fat cells beneath the chin to improve the appearance of submental fullness, commonly known as a double chin. Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in fat absorption. When injected under the chin, Kybella breaks down and absorbs dietary fat.
Once destroyed, those fat cells can no longer store or accumulate fat, providing lasting results. At Femme Aesthetics, our medical providers customize each Kybella treatment plan to your unique chin profile and desired outcome.
Why Choose Kybella
Precision Treatment
Kybella is strategically injected to address submental fullness and enhance your chin and neck profile for a more contoured appearance.
Your Visit
Before Treatment
During your consultation, your medical provider will assess your chin profile, discuss your aesthetic goals, and determine if Kybella is right for you. A personalized treatment plan will be created based on the amount of submental fat present.
During Treatment
The treatment area beneath your chin will be cleaned, and a grid pattern may be marked to guide the injections. Your medical provider will administer a series of small Kybella injections into the fat under the chin. Each session takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
After Treatment
Expect swelling, numbness, and bruising in the treated area for 2 to 3 days. Swelling is a sign the treatment is working. Most patients need 2 to 6 treatment sessions spaced about 1 month apart. Once your desired results are achieved, no further treatment is needed.
Common side effects of Kybella include swelling (most common and expected), bruising, pain, numbness, redness, and areas of hardness in the treatment area. Swelling beneath the chin is a sign the treatment is working and typically resolves within days. In rare cases, nerve injury may occur, causing an uneven smile or facial muscle weakness, which is temporary. Serious side effects are uncommon when Kybella is administered by qualified professionals like our team at Femme Aesthetics.

★★★★★
I had always been self-conscious about my double chin, even at a healthy weight. After three Kybella sessions at Femme Aesthetics, the difference is incredible. My jawline is so much more defined, and I finally feel confident in photos from any angle.

★★★★★
I was nervous about the swelling, but the team at Femme Aesthetics walked me through everything. Yes, I was a little puffy for a couple of days, but once it went down, I could already see the fat melting away. Two sessions in and my profile looks completely different.

★★★★★
I considered liposuction for years but did not want surgery. Kybella was the perfect alternative. The procedure was quick, and the results are permanent. My double chin is gone, and I could not be happier with the outcome. Highly recommend Femme Aesthetics.

Yes, Kybella results are permanent. Once Kybella destroys fat cells beneath the chin, those cells can no longer store or accumulate fat. Once you achieve your desired results, no further treatment is expected. The results are considered permanent as long as you maintain a stable weight.
Patients may experience a stinging or burning sensation during the injection, which typically subsides within minutes. Your medical provider may apply ice or a topical numbing agent to minimize discomfort. After treatment, some swelling, numbness, and tenderness in the area are common and expected, but these effects are temporary and manageable.
Kybella has minimal downtime. The most common side effect is swelling under the chin, which is a sign the treatment is working. Swelling, bruising, and numbness typically resolve within 2 to 3 days, though some swelling may persist for up to 2 weeks. Most patients return to normal activities within a day or two of treatment.
