Kybella®/ Deoxycholic Acid Treatment
Stubborn fat beneath the chin can be challenging to eliminate, even with diet and exercise. Kybella®/Deoxycholic Acid offers a non-surgical solution to dissolve stubborn fat and contour the jawline. At Ageless Health Institute, our expert team provides safe and effective Kybella®/Deoxycholic Acid treatments, helping clients achieve a more defined, youthful profile.
What is Kybella®/ Deoxycholic Acid?
Kybella®/Deoxycholic Acid is an FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to target and dissolve submental fat (fat under the chin). When administered, Kybella®/Deoxycholic Acid effectively destroys fat cells eliminating the ability to store fat in the future. Unlike other fat-reduction methods, Kybella®/Deoxycholic Acid offers a permanent solution to submental fullness. Since fat cells do not regenerate, this procedure leads to lasting contour improvements. The procedure is minimally invasive, requires little recovery time, and delivers progressive, natural improvements.
How Does Kybella® /Deoxycholic Acid Work?
Kybella®/Deoxycholic Acid utilizes a molecule naturally found in the body as the active ingredient, deoxycholic acid, which aids in the metabolism of fat. When injected into the area of concern, Kybella®/Deoxycholic Acid targets and destroys fat cells, preventing the accumulation of fat in the future.
Clinical Studies & Effectiveness
- A pivotal clinical trial involving over 1,600 participants showed significant improvement in submental fullness with Kybella®/Deoxycholic Acid treatment.
- Over 79% of patients reported increased satisfaction with their chin profile.
- Results are long-lasting, as treated fat cells do not regenerate.
- Additional research confirms that the results of Kybella®/Deoxycholic Acid treatments are permanent with proper weight maintenance.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
While Kybella®/Deoxycholic Acid is most commonly used to eliminate excess fat beneath the chin, it can also be used in other areas of the body where stubborn fat deposits are present. Some potential treatment areas include:
Submental (Under-Chin) Fat
The primary and FDA-approved use of Kybella®/Deoxycholic Acid, helping to sculpt and define the jawline.
Jawline Contouring
Bra Fat
Lower Abdomen
In some cases, Kybella®/Deoxycholic Acid may be used for small fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise
Inner Thighs and Knees
While submental fat remains the most common and well-researched treatment area, our team can evaluate your specific needs to determine if Kybella®/Deoxycholic Acid is the right solution for other problem areas.
