Kybella is an FDA-approved, non-surgical injectable treatment designed to reduce moderate to severe fat beneath the chin, commonly known as submental fat or a “double chin.”
The active ingredient in Kybella is synthetic deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into the fat beneath the chin, Kybella effectively destroys fat cells, resulting in a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin and an improved chin profile.
At Profile Medical & Aesthetics in Granbury, TX, we specialize in providing personalized Kybella treatments to help clients achieve their aesthetic goals.
Kybella offers several benefits for individuals looking to improve their chin profile without undergoing surgery. Some of the key benefits include:
Kybella is a non-invasive treatment that does not require incisions, anesthesia, or a lengthy recovery period. This makes it an attractive option for those looking to avoid the risks and downtime associated with surgical procedures.
Once the fat cells are destroyed by Kybella, they cannot store or accumulate fat again. This means that the results are long-lasting, provided you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle.
Each Kybella treatment session typically takes about 15 to 20 minutes, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules. Most clients require multiple sessions, spaced about a month apart, to achieve optimal results.
At Profile Medical & Aesthetics, we tailor each Kybella treatment plan to the individual needs and goals of our clients. This personalized approach ensures that you receive the best possible results.
While some swelling, bruising, or numbness may occur after the treatment, these side effects are usually temporary and subside within a few days. Most clients can return to their normal activities shortly after the procedure.

Before considering Kybella treatment, there are a few at-home measures you can try to reduce the appearance of a double chin:
Healthy Diet and Exercise:
Maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise routine can help reduce overall body fat, including submental fat. Focus on a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains, and incorporate both cardiovascular and strength-training exercises into your routine.
Facial Exercises:
Certain facial exercises may help strengthen the muscles in the neck and jaw, potentially reducing the appearance of a double chin. Some exercises to try include:
Chin Lifts: Tilt your head back and look toward the ceiling. Pucker your lips as if you are kissing the ceiling and hold for a few seconds. Repeat 10-15 times.
Jaw Jut: Tilt your head back and look toward the ceiling. Push your lower jaw forward to feel a stretch under the chin. Hold for a few seconds and repeat 10-15 times.
Hydration and Skincare:
Staying hydrated and using skincare products that promote skin elasticity can help improve the overall appearance of the skin and reduce the visibility of a double chin.
At Profile Medical & Aesthetics, we follow a comprehensive process to determine if you are a suitable candidate for Kybella treatment. Our goal is to ensure that you receive the best possible care and achieve your desired results.
Here’s what you can expect:
Your journey begins with an initial consultation with our experienced team. During this appointment, we will discuss your aesthetic goals, medical history, and any concerns you may have. This is also an opportunity for you to ask questions and learn more about the Kybella treatment process.
We will perform a thorough physical examination of the treatment area to assess the amount of submental fat and the overall condition of your skin. This evaluation helps us determine if Kybella is the right treatment for you or if other options may be more suitable.
Based on the consultation and physical examination, we will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and goals. This plan will outline the number of Kybella sessions required, the expected timeline, and any pre-treatment and post-treatment care instructions.
Before proceeding with the treatment, we will provide you with detailed information about the Kybella procedure, including potential risks and side effects. We will also obtain your informed consent to ensure that you fully understand and agree to the treatment plan.
During each Kybella treatment session, we will carefully administer the injections into the targeted areas beneath your chin. The number of injections and the amount of Kybella used will depend on your personalized treatment plan. Most clients require multiple sessions, spaced about a month apart, to achieve optimal results.
After each treatment session, we will provide you with post-treatment care instructions to help minimize any side effects and promote healing. We will also schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
