Kybella is the only FDA-approved injectable treatment that destroys fat cells in the treatment area under the chin to improve the appearance of your profile. The active ingredient in Kybella is synthetic deoxycholic acid, which is a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. By injecting Kybella into the fat beneath the chin, it works to destroy fat cells and results in a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin. Once destroyed, these cells can no longer store or accumulate fat, so further treatment is not expected once patients reach their desired aesthetic goal
