Kybella® is an FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to improve the appearance of a double chin by targeting and permanently destroying fat cells. It contains a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a substance naturally found in the body that helps break down and absorb dietary fat. Once injected, Kybella® works by disrupting the membranes of fat cells beneath the chin. These cells are then naturally eliminated by the body over the following weeks. Because the treated fat cells are destroyed, they can no longer store fat, making results long-lasting. Most patients begin to see visible improvement within four to six weeks, with continued refinement over time. Even in clinical studies, patients who experienced weight gain did not see a return of fat in the treated area.
At Beyond Aesthetics, we also offer “Liquid Lipo,” an advanced fat-dissolving injectable formulated with a proprietary blend of prescription ingredients. This treatment is designed to contour and reduce stubborn fat in areas such as the abdomen, arms, inner thighs, love handles, and under the chin.
Kybella® in Lubbock, TX, is a non-surgical option designed to help reduce moderate to severe fat beneath the chin, commonly referred to as submental fullness or a double chin. This concern may develop due to genetics, aging, or weight changes and may not always respond to diet and exercise alone. As a chin fat reduction treatment, this approach uses a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid to break down and absorb fat cells in targeted areas. Over time, the body naturally processes and eliminates these treated cells, which may improve the contour and definition of the chin and jawline. This non-surgical double chin removal option is commonly chosen by individuals seeking gradual, natural-looking improvements.
