Refine Your Jawline
by Reducing Chin Fullness
KYBELLA is an injectable formulated to reduce moderate-to-severe fullness beneath the chin, often called a double chin. Its active ingredient breaks down targeted fat cells, allowing your body to clear them naturally over time. As unwanted fullness diminishes, the chin and jawline can appear more defined, creating a slimmer, more elegantly sculpted profile without surgery.
KYBELLA Treats These Concerns:
- Moderate to severe fullness beneath the chin
- A double chin caused by excess submental fat
- Stubborn fat that persists despite weight loss
- Reduced definition between the chin and neck
- A softer or less-defined jawline caused by chin fullness
How KYBELLA Works
KYBELLA contains deoxycholic acid, a substance your body naturally uses to help break down dietary fat. When injected beneath the chin, it destroys the membranes surrounding targeted fat cells, causing them to break down. Your body then clears these damaged cells through its natural processes. Once eliminated, those fat cells can no longer store or accumulate fat.
What Can I Expect After My
KYBELLA Injections?
Swelling beneath the chin is very common and can be noticeable, particularly after your first treatment. Bruising, numbness, redness, discomfort, or firmness can also occur temporarily. Your provider will explain what to expect and give you personalized aftercare instructions.

- More sculpted chin and jawline definition

FAQs
How Many KYBELLA Treatments Will I Need?
Your treatment plan depends on the amount and distribution of fat beneath your chin, as well as your goals. KYBELLA may involve multiple sessions, with up to 6 treatments administered at least one month apart. Not everyone needs the maximum number.
When Will I See My KYBELLA Results?
Your results develop as your body clears the destroyed fat cells. You may notice a slimmer-looking profile after several weeks, with further improvement from additional treatments when needed. KYBELLA offers progressive refinement rather than an overnight change.
Are My KYBELLA Results Permanent?
The fat cells destroyed by KYBELLA can no longer store or accumulate fat, so retreatment is generally not expected once you reach your desired result. However, the remaining fat cells in the area can still expand if you gain weight. As such, maintaining a relatively stable weight can help preserve your overall contours.
Is There Downtime After KYBELLA?
There are no surgical incisions, but you should plan around the possibility of visible swelling. Many people continue their normal routines after treatment, although you may prefer some social downtime depending on how much swelling you experience.
Will KYBELLA Tighten Loose Skin Under My Chin?
KYBELLA is specifically formulated to reduce submental fat: it is not primarily a skin-tightening treatment. If laxity is contributing to your concerns, your provider may recommend a treatment such as Ultherapy® or Morpheus8® instead of (or alongside) fat reduction.
