Kybella, is a patented, FDA-approved, synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a molecule that naturally occurs in our bodies, and helps metabolize fat. Kybella is manufactured by Allergan, the makers of Botox. It is the first and only non-surgical treatment approved by the FDA for contouring and improving the appearance of submental fullness, more commonly known as double chin. Kybella dissolves excess fat under the chin, leaving a smooth jawline without the downtime of treatments like traditional liposuction or neck surgery.
Double chin affects men and women, and often persists despite weight loss in other areas of the body. A double chin can result in an unwanted heavier, or more aged, appearance. Kybella can restore better facial symmetry and a more defined facial jawline.
