Have you been feeling self-conscious about your double chin? Do you feel like excess fat along your chin and jawline makes you look older than you feel inside? If so, Kybella could be the perfect solution for you. This non-invasive injectable treatment destroys fat cells in the targeted area, enhancing your jawline’s profile and overall chin contour.

  • Permanent results without the need for follow-ups
  • A non-invasive, safe, and effective alternative to cosmetic surgery

Getting Started with Your Consultation

Every aesthetic journey at our Columbia practice begins with an initial consultation. You can discuss your cosmetic goals and medical history with a highly trained aesthetic professional during this consultation. You’ll be able to determine if Kybella is the right choice for you and explore any alternative treatments that may suit your needs.

Once you’ve decided that Kybella aligns with your aesthetic goals, you will work together to create a treatment plan tailored specifically to you. We aim to build lasting relationships with our clients, ensuring you feel supported and empowered throughout your journey.

Your Kybella Treatment Experience

The exact number of Kybella injections will depend on your personalized treatment plan. Your provider will give you a clear idea of what to expect during and after your treatment well in advance. The product will be injected with a very fine needle, ensuring the process is as comfortable as possible, aided by a topical anesthetic. The entire session will last about 45 minutes, after which you can resume your daily activities.

Your Exciting Kybella Results

Following your Kybella in Columbia, your provider may apply a cold compress or ice pack to reduce any swelling in the treatment area. Some clients experience mild to moderate swelling, bruising, or numbness around the injection site, which can last for five to ten days but will resolve naturally.

After two to four treatments, most clients notice enhanced definition and contour in their chin’s profile. Your injections will be spaced a minimum of four weeks apart, with up to six treatments possibly required to achieve your desired results. Once you have reached your goal, the fat cells in your chin will be permanently eliminated!
