Kybella in Austin, TX

At ProDerm Skin & Surgery, we offer Kybella® as a minimally invasive procedure to reduce submental fullness — commonly referred to as “double chin.” By permanently destroying fat cells beneath the chin, this FDA-approved injectable helps create a slimmer, more defined jawline and neck contour without the need for surgery.

Discomfort: Mild — patients may feel a brief stinging or burning sensation common with injections.
Recovery Time: A few days of swelling and tenderness are common; though downtime is usually minimal.
Duration of Results: Long-lasting — once fat cells are destroyed with Kybella, they do not return.
Treatment Sessions: Typically requires 2–4 sessions, spaced at least 1 month apart for optimal results.

Kybella is a popular option for reducing unwanted fat under the chin. Benefits include:

• Permanent destruction of fat cells in the treatment area
• Slimmer and more contoured jawline and neckline
• Non-surgical approach with no incisions or anesthesia
• Short treatment sessions with minimal downtime

Kybella may be a good option if you:

• Are 18 years or older with mild to moderate fullness beneath the chin

During Treatment
Kybella is administered as a series of small injections under the chin. Treatment usually takes about 20–30 minutes with minimal levels of discomfort.

After Treatment
Swelling, redness, and tenderness in the area are common and may last several days. Most patients are able to resume normal activities within a few days.

Results
Visible improvement typically appears after 2 or more treatments, with full results developing over several months as the body naturally processes the destroyed fat cells.

Kybella is FDA-approved for the treatment of:

• Submental fullness (double chin)
• Localized fat beneath the chin affecting jawline contour
