KYBELLA®

You eat well. You work out. But that stubborn pocket of fat beneath your chin just… stays.

You’re not alone — and it’s not your fault. Submental fullness (commonly called a “double chin”) is largely genetic, and no amount of diet or exercise can target it. For years, the only solution was surgery.

Not anymore.

KyBella®

is the only FDA-approved injectable treatment that permanently destroys fat cells beneath the chin — eliminating your double chin without surgery, without general anesthesia, and without a single incision.

At The Skin Therapist, our medical professionals use KyBella® to sculpt and define the jawline and chin area — creating a cleaner, sharper, more youthful profile that you’ll see every time you look in the mirror.

KyBella’s® active ingredient is deoxycholic acid — a naturally occurring molecule in your body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat.

When injected into the fat beneath your chin, deoxycholic acid destroys the membrane of fat cells — causing them to break down and be naturally eliminated by your body over the following weeks.

Here’s the most important part:

Once those fat cells are destroyed — they are gone permanently. They cannot store or accumulate fat again.

This means your results aren’t just long-lasting — they’re permanent.

• Submental fat (double chin)
• Chin and jawline definition
• Profile improvement
• Genetic or stubborn chin fat unresponsive to diet and exercise
• Jowling and lower face heaviness

Before Your Treatment: A consultation is completed to assess the amount of submental fat, discuss your goals, and determine how many vials and sessions are needed for your desired outcome.

During Treatment:

• A topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area
• A grid pattern is mapped beneath the chin to guide precise injection placement
• KyBella® is injected in a series of small injections across the treatment area
• Treatment typically takes 20–30 minutes

After Treatment: Swelling, redness, and tenderness beneath the chin are expected and completely normal — and are actually a sign that the treatment is working. Swelling can be significant in the first few days and gradually resolves over 2–4 weeks.

• Sessions per visit – Multiple injections per session
• Vials per session – 1–4 vials depending on the amount of fat present
• Sessions needed – Most clients need 2–4 sessions for optimal results
• Time between sessions – Minimum 4–6 weeks between each session
• Results timeline – Visible improvement begins at 4–6 weeks post-treatment; full results seen after completing your series
• Maintenance – None required — results are permanent once fat cells are destroyed

• Weeks 1–2: Swelling and tenderness beneath the chin (this is normal and expected)
• Weeks 3–4: Swelling begins to subside; early definition starts to appear
• Weeks 4–6: Noticeable reduction in submental fat; jawline becomes more visible
• After full series: A dramatically more defined, sculpted chin and jawline — permanently
