Frequently asked questions
Does Kybella treat loose skin or chin fat?
KYBELLA is FDA-approved to improve the appearance of moderate to severe fat below the chin in adults. It targets fat, so your clinician should assess whether fat, skin laxity or another concern is contributing to your profile.
How many sessions might I need?
The number depends on the fat beneath your chin and your goals. The product labeling allows up to six sessions, at least one month apart. Review your response with your clinician before planning another session.
Can the result last?
Kybella destroys treated fat cells, which can no longer store fat. Further treatment is not expected once your goal is reached, but changes in weight and aging can still affect your overall profile.
How should I plan for recovery?
Swelling, bruising, pain or numbness under the chin can occur. Discuss recovery before booking around an event. Contact your clinician promptly for an uneven smile, swallowing difficulty, open sores or drainage.
What does a Kybella quote include?
Ask Ava about the product amount and cost for each session, possible follow-up and your complete visit length. A treatment series may involve more than one appointment; confirm what is included before booking.

What should I share before treatment?
Tell your clinician about swallowing problems, medicines that affect bleeding and prior face, neck or chin treatments. Kybella should not be used with an infection in the treatment area. Discuss pregnancy or breastfeeding before planning treatment.
