Kybella

Kybella Treatments in South Hills of Pittsburgh

What is Kybella?
Kybella is an FDA-approved treatment for the appearance of moderate to severe submental fat (double chin). Kybella destroys the fat cells that accumulate in the neck then naturally eliminates the fat slowly over a few weeks. Once the cells are destroyed, they can no longer store or accumulate fat. A great and safe alternative to Lipo!

What should I expect at my appointment?
Appointments last approximately 45 minutes, with ice being applied to the area to numb for 15-20 minutes. Kybella injections cause minimal discomfort. You may feel a slight stinging or burning sensation. Best of all, you can return to your daily activities right after your treatment.

How many treatments will I need?
Your treatments will be based on your desired look. Most patients experience results in 2-4 treatments, spaced 1 month apart. Once your desired look is achieved, re-treatment is not expected.

Are there any side effects?
Side effects of Kybella may include bruising, swelling, numbness, areas of hardness, or redness in the injection site. Kybella injections can also cause tingling, itching, skin tightness and headache. These side effects typically resolve within a few days.
