At Snyder Plastic Surgery, we are dedicated to providing innovative solutions to enhance your natural beauty and boost your confidence. One such solution is Kybella, a groundbreaking treatment designed to target and eliminate submental fat, commonly known as a double chin.
Understanding Kybella
Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment specifically formulated to reduce moderate to severe submental fat. The formula helps redefine the jawline and enhance facial contours without the need for invasive surgery—the revolutionary treatment contains deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat.

Candidacy for Kybella
Candidacy for Kybella takes into consideration each patient’s unique circumstances to ensure the safest and most effective treatment plan tailored to their needs. Patients should understand that Kybella is not a weight loss solution but a targeted treatment for reducing localized fat beneath the chin. Ideal candidates for Kybella are individuals who:
- Are bothered by a double chin
- Desire a non-surgical solution to improve their neck contour
- Have good overall health
- Have no significant medical conditions that could affect treatment or healing
- Maintain realistic expectations regarding the outcomes
- Are committed to following post-treatment instructions
The Science Behind Kybella
Deoxycholic acid works by disrupting the cell membrane of fat cells, causing them to lyse and be naturally eliminated by the body’s lymphatic system. As a result, targeted fat deposits in the submental area gradually diminished, revealing a more sculpted and defined neckline over time.
The precision of Kybella injections ensures that surrounding tissues remain unharmed, allowing for safe and effective treatment with minimal downtime.

Kybella Step-by-Step
Before
Kybella’s suitability is assessed based on individual factors such as medical history, anatomy, and aesthetic goals. Before treatment, patients undergo a thorough consultation with our experienced medical professionals, during which:
- Their medical history and aesthetic concerns are carefully evaluated
- A personalized treatment plan is devised to address their specific needs
During
The Kybella treatment process begins with the application of a topical numbing agent to ensure patient comfort. Using a series of precise injections, Kybella is strategically administered into the submental area, targeting stubborn fat deposits beneath the chin.
The entire procedure typically takes less than 30 minutes to complete, making it a convenient option for individuals with busy lifestyles.
After
Following Kybella treatment, patients may experience:
- Mild swelling
- Bruising
- Discomfort in the treatment area
These symptoms usually subside within a few days. Over the following weeks, the body naturally metabolizes the destroyed fat cells, gradually revealing a more contoured and defined neckline.
Multiple treatment sessions may be recommended to achieve optimal results, with most patients noticing significant improvement after two to four sessions spaced four to six weeks apart.
