What Is Kybella?

Kybella (deoxycholic acid) is an injectable prescription treatment approved by the FDA to improve moderate to severe fullness caused by fat beneath the chin in adults.

Could Kybella Be Right for You?

The amount of fat, skin laxity, and the shape of the area all matter. Dr. Chin will assess what is contributing to the fullness and explain the likely benefit, recovery, and alternatives.

Recovery and Risks

Swelling, bruising, discomfort, numbness, and firmness can occur after treatment. Serious risks include nerve injury, difficulty swallowing, skin injury or infection, and persistent lumps that may require medical attention. Dr. Chin will review the risks and follow-up instructions before treatment.
