FAQS FOR TREATMENT
What is Kybella?
An injectable form of deoxycholic acid that destroys fat cells under the chin.
How many treatments will I need?
Up to six; many clients achieve their goal in 2-4 sessions spaced a month apart.
Is Kybella permanent?
Yes. Once fat cells are destroyed they can’t store fat, so results are long lasting.
Does it hurt?
You may feel stinging or burning during injections; we use ice and lidocaine to ease discomfort.
What is the downtime?
Expect swelling and bruising for several days; plan treatments around events.
Can I combine Kybella with other treatments?
Yes. Pairing it with jawline filler or skin tightening can enhance overall contouring.
Who is not a candidate?
People with loose skin rather than fat under the chin; those with infections or certain medical conditions should avoid Kybella.
When will I see results?
Gradual improvement becomes noticeable after 2-3 sessions; final results develop once the series is complete.
Are there side effects?
Swelling, bruising, numbness and firmness are common; serious side effects are rare.
Will I need touch‐ups?
Once the desired result is achieved, additional treatments aren’t usually necessary; maintaining a stable weight helps preserve results.
