Kybella in Aiken, SC

Say goodbye to the double chin — Kybella is the only FDA-approved injectable that targets and destroys fat cells, no surgery or downtime required.

Sculpt Without Surgery

What is Kybella?

Submental fullness — better known as the double chin — is something almost no one asks for and many of us inherit anyway. If you've grown tired of turtlenecks, scarves, and carefully angled photos, Kybella offers a refined solution: about 45 minutes per visit, a short series of treatments, and results you'll love living in.

Kybella is composed of deoxycholic acid, a synthetic form of a molecule your own liver produces to break down fat. Injected into the chin and neck area, it destroys fat cells where it's placed — and once those cells are gone, they can no longer store fat. Unlike liposuction, it's quick, virtually painless, and requires no downtime.

  • The only FDA-approved fat-dissolving injectable
  • Tightens & refines the chin and neck profile
  • Also used for hips, thighs, arms & love handles

What To Expect

Your Kybella journey

01

We assess your chin and neck area, review your health history, and map a personalized injection plan.

02

Treat

A series of small injections placed across the treatment area — about 45 minutes, with only brief stinging.

03

Repeat

Sessions are spaced one month apart. Most patients see visible change after just two treatments; some need up to six.

04

Reveal

As the treated fat cells clear away, your profile becomes tighter, smoother, and more youthfully defined.

Good To Know

Kybella FAQs

Virtually none. Swelling and needle marks at the injection sites typically fade within a few days to a week — some patients choose a scarf or higher collar in the meantime, but there's no reason you can't go about your day as usual.

The most common side effects are mild pain, swelling, and bruising in the treated area, especially after the first sessions. Severe reactions are rare; your provider will review your full medical history before treatment to keep you safe.

Results vary, but most patients report noticeable improvement after just two treatments — about two months into their plan. Each session builds on the last as fat cells are progressively cleared.

If you're pregnant, nursing, managing an active infection, or taking blood-thinning medications, Kybella may need to wait. Always share your medical history and current medications with your provider — we'll confirm whether it's right for you.
