Everything You Need to Know About Kybella
Kybella
$650 / vial
Kybella is an injectable made of deoxycholic acid, which is a naturally occurring product in the body. As our bodies age, it loses the ability to produce as much deoxycholic acid, which makes the body less effective at absorbing fats. Kybella injections can boost fat absorption in the body.
What Kybella Treats
Are you ready to diminish your double chin and chisel out your jawline? You invest in yourself in many ways, now it’s time to invest in your profile. Kybella is the only FDA-approved injectable treatment for adults that is designed to permanently destroy fat cells under the chin for a gradually improved profile. Whether you have a moderate amount of fullness under your chin or a bit more, Kybella works to reduce fat deposits under the jawline to give more definition.
What to Expect at Your Kybella Procedure
The number of injections required will vary based on the amount of fat present. With each treatment, you will see dramatic improvements in the chin and neck profile.
Each appointment lasts approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
- The areas to be injected are first cleaned with alcohol and marked
- A thin needle is used to inject the specified amount of Kybella around your jawline.
- Two vials are typically administered over 2 to 6 sessions, with 12 weeks between each session.
- Topical numbing cream can be used, as well as ice packs to help reduce sensation and swelling
Because the body gradually metabolizes the killed fat cells, results are not instantaneous for everyone.
What Makes Kybella a Permanent Solution?
Because Kybella is killing fat cells, it’s removing the storage space for dietary fat. Without the presence of the fat cells under the jawline, fat can no longer be stored there to create a double chin.
Recovery
There is significant swelling after the injection of Kybella. While swelling from Kybella is a normal side effect, it can still cause some discomfort and become an overall social inconvenience. The good news is that the swelling is temporary.
Testimonials from Kybella Participants
Posted on Alessandra MackeyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Megan is so awesome! She is the only one I trust with my Botox and filler treatments, I highly recommend the Center and Megan! Great experience through and through.Posted on Loren HoughTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Megan is truly an artist, the way she pays such attention to detail is incredible. She was born to be an injector. I came in with an insecurity on my face that I’ve been trying to fix for years and NO one could make it look the way Megan did. Truly amazing. The process was painless and she actually takes the time to discuss your goals with you. If you live in Utah you need to schedule with Megan! I’m so beyond happy with my results!Posted on Adam SessionsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Julie and her team are phenomenal. From consult to treatment, every detail was executed flawlessly. Julie advocates for her patients. It is visible in her interactions, delivery of care and acute attention to detail. With their newly expanded services and panneled insurance plans, I fully intend to make the move to have Dr. Julie manage my healthcare needs. Their space is straight out of AD spread and smells divine. You will be hard-pressed to find another spot that even competes.Posted on Jennifer DespainTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I came to Julie for botox a lot over a year ago, because my friend invited me to go get botox with her. Best decision I've ever made because I will never go anywhere else. She's amazing! I've had some bad experiences with other injectors, over injecting and forcing me to get more than I needed. Julie is the opposite, she has never pushed more than I felt I needed.Posted on Clare KehoeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went to see Megan for some Botox and filler to balance out the symmetry in my face and she left me looking so natural and fresh! She had such a comforting and easy going demeanor through the process and really made me feel at ease. She was honest and only recommended what she thought was necessary, I so overjoyed with my results and I feel like a new woman with the glow. Would recommend her to anyone who feels apprehensive of about injections, she made the process enjoyable and exceeded my expectations with the results.Posted on Suzanne PlantTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Center provides healthful , expert and professional service. The Center is light, airy and stylish. Plus you cant’t help but like them. I highly recommend them.Posted on Bianca RossanoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Megan is truly the BEST! From the moment you walk in, she makes you feel completely at ease—like you’re catching up with a trusted friend who just happens to be an expert in aesthetics. She is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and a total perfectionist in the best way possible. She always goes above and beyond to ensure I look and feel my most beautiful, and I know she does the same for every client she sees. What sets Megan apart is not just her skill but her genuine care. She takes the time to listen, educate, and customize every treatment so that you leave feeling like the best version of yourself—never overdone, just naturally refreshed and glowing. Her gentle touch makes the entire process painless, and she is beyond meticulous when it comes to hygiene and safety. I never have to worry because I know I’m in the hands of someone who prioritizes both my results and my well-being. I’m a perfectionist myself and super particular when it comes to anything involving my face, so finding someone like Megan, who is just as detail-oriented and meticulous, is rare. The fact that I’m that way and still think she’s the best says everything. She’s one of the only people I fully trust with a needle and my face. I know every time I see her, I’m going to get the best results with the best experience. If you’re considering seeing her, do it—you’ll be so glad you did.Posted on DBroncos090Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience with Megan, the PA at The Center. She did a great job with my Botox appointment. She was very knowledgeable and helpful with deciding how much and what areas to treat. I didn’t feel a thing, zero pain! I will definitely be returning to her for follow up!Posted on Cafe SoleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Megan was great! She was professional and kind. Was very comfortable and at ease. I will definitely be back! Thank you Megan!Posted on Natalie ReinholdTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Megan has been doing my injections for two years. She has done my Botox regularly and my lips. She is absolutely talented. I am very picky and I stick with her because she is one of the only ones who hasn’t dropped my eyebrow. She knows her anatomy well and aligns her treatments with my goals. She also is willing to let me know what she thinks will be too much or not enough. I appreciate her honesty and expertise. She is one of the premier injectors of Utah.
