What Are Fat Dissolving Injectibles?
Kybella® is an injectable treatment that uses deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that breaks down dietary fat. When injected into areas like the chin, Kybella® targets and dissolves unwanted fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body. Unlike temporary solutions, Kybella® permanently removes fat cells, preventing them from storing fat in the future.
The Benefits of Fat Dissolving Injectibles

Permanent Fat Reduction
Kybella® destroys fat cells in the treated area, preventing future fat accumulation.

Non-Surgical, No Downtime
Achieve a more sculpted appearance without incisions, anesthesia, or lengthy recovery time.

Customized Treatment
Treatments are tailored to your unique anatomy and goals for natural, balanced results.
How Fat Dissolving Injectibles Work
Kybella® works by disrupting the fat cell membranes in the treated area. Over several weeks, the body naturally metabolizes the destroyed fat cells, gradually reducing fullness. The treatment is performed in a series of sessions, typically spaced about a month apart. Many patients begin to see visible improvement after just a few treatments, with optimal results appearing after completing the full series.
