How Does Kybella Work?
At Iconique Medical Aesthetics, we offer Kybella treatments in Costa Mesa, CA, the only FDA-approved injectable designed to reduce fat under the chin. Off-label, it can also reduce fat in areas such as the jowls, armpits, bra rolls, and other body parts. Kybella kills fat cells wherever injected, making it a versatile option for targeting excess fat in various locations.
The treatment involves a series of injections tailored to your specific anatomy. Patients require different numbers of treatments depending on factors such as their initial fullness and aesthetic goals.
Kybella Treatment Areas
JOWLS
$600 per vial
Kybella can dissolve fat in the jowls and submentum (double chin). It is the only FDA-approved injectable treatment that reduces fat cells beneath the chin to enhance your appearance. Kybella contains synthetic deoxycholic acid, which helps the body absorb fat. Kybella destroys fat cells beneath the chin when injected, leading to a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin. When these cells are destroyed, they can no longer store or accumulate fat, eliminating the need for further treatment once your desired aesthetic goal is achieved. Most patients require two or more vials. Package pricing is available when three or more vials are purchased.
