Kybella Treatment in Glendale, CA
Kybella® (deoxycholic acid) injection 10mg/ml is an FDA approved prescription medicine used in adults to improve the appearance and profile of moderate to severe fat below the chin (submental fat), also called “double chin.” When injected into the fat beneath the chin, Kybella permanently destroys fat cells. Your body’s natural metabolism then processes the fat cleared from the treatment area. Once the fat cells are gone, you are left with a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin. The active ingredient in Kybella is synthetic deoxycholic acid. Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring molecule in the body that helps break down fat. Kybella comes from the Allergan family, the creators of Botox, Juvederm Voluma, Juvederm Ultra and Juvederm Ultra Plus.
