Benefits of Kybella in Los Angeles
Safe Treatment
Kybella is FDA-approved as a highly safe and convenient way to treat unwanted fat under the chin.
Nonsurgical
Kybella involves a series of injections, requiring no surgery to reduce or eliminate the appearance of a double chin.
Permanent Results
That submental fat isn’t shrunk. Kybella destroys the fat for effective, life-long results.
Consultation
It starts with a personal consultation with your trained and licensed Younique provider. During this relaxing and energizing one-on-one, they’ll discuss your concerns, your goals for treatment, and your medical history. If your provider determines that Kybella in Los Angeles is the best treatment for your concerns and goals, your session can be scheduled.
Procedure
A session of Kybella injections can be completed in approximately 15 to 20 minutes, making it the perfect “lunchtime” procedure. First, your Younique provider will remove any makeup and thoroughly cleanse the treatment area, and they’ll apply a topical numbing agent for optimal comfort during your treatment. Next, they will mark a “grid” to ensure accurate injections and distribution. Kybella is delivered via a quick series of injections with extremely fine needles.
Recovery
Your Kybella treatments will occur approximately 6 weeks apart to allow time for your body to heal between injections. There is no downtime associated with Kybella treatments, and you can immediately return to your normal activities. There is usually some swelling and tenderness in the treatment area for 3 to 7 days after receiving Kybella. Results from Kybella injections start to appear a few weeks after the first session and are permanent.

How does Kybella destroy fat cells in my double chin?
Kybella’s active ingredient is deoxycholic acid. This acid is already found in the body, as it’s used by the digestive system to break down fats. Because deoxycholic acid is already present in the body, it’s completely safe for use and there are no worries about allergic reactions to the product.
Once Kybella is injected into your fat, it destroys those cells permanently, and your body’s system naturally flushes the leftovers for marked improvements in your chin’s appearance and profile.
What causes a double chin?
Some of the common potential causes of a double chin include:
- Aging. As you grow older, the natural aging process causes you to lose muscle and the skin to loosen. Muscles in the chin slacken and skin stretches, increasing the risk of a double chin.
- Genetics. There’s a good chance that double chin is inherited. If you have other family members with a double chin, you may have a greater risk of developing one yourself. Genetics often affect fat storage and water retention, which can both lead to a double chin.
- Extra Weight. Extra weight or body fat is another common cause of a double chin. Of course, even individuals who are at a healthy weight may develop a double chin.
