Kybella Treatment at Saltbox Aesthetics in Dallas, TX

Kybella is a non-surgical, FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to reduce submental fat, commonly known as a double chin. It is the first injectable treatment that permanently destroys fat cells, creating a more contoured, youthful-looking profile without the need for surgery.

What Is Kybella?

Kybella is an injectable solution made of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into targeted areas under the chin, Kybella works to permanently destroy fat cells, which are then metabolized and naturally eliminated by the body.

How Does Kybella Work?

Kybella works by using deoxycholic acid to target and break down fat cells. Once injected into the submental area, it disrupts the fat cells, which are then absorbed by the body’s natural processes. The result is a more sculpted chin and jawline, with a reduction in the appearance of a double chin. The treatment is minimally invasive, with no need for incisions or anesthesia.

What to Expect from Kybella Treatment

The procedure involves a series of small injections into the submental fat area. Most patients experience mild discomfort during the treatment, but it is well tolerated. Results are typically seen in 2-4 sessions, spaced about a month apart. The treated area gradually becomes more defined as the fat cells are broken down and naturally eliminated from the body.

Why Choose Kybella at Saltbox Aesthetics

Truth be told, at Saltbox Aesthetics we personally know the biochemist who created Kybella, so we could be a little biased. Nevertheless, clinical studies have proven that, upon injection, Kybella almost instantly dissolves unwanted sub-mental fat (the fat under your chin). Immediately after injection, your fat cells liquify and are removed from your body over the course of days to weeks. The fat cells destroyed will never come back—even if you gain weight.

Swelling is most evident with your first treatment, so please plan this appointment at least two weeks prior to any important event.
