Kybella® is a revolutionary product that blurs the line between surgery and injections. It is used to permanently dissolve small areas of stubborn fat deposits. The most common area this is used is under the chin. A double chin can be very frustrating and can obscure the jawline. Kybella® in Walnut Creek is used to dissolve this fat pad to remove the excess volume and define the chin from the neck.
Kybella® usually takes a series of treatments (anywhere from 2-5) spaced 6 weeks apart. This gives your body time to dissolve the stubborn fat and eliminate it from the area before an additional treatment is performed. Reach out to Dr. Eberlin to learn more.
The procedure involves marking anatomic landmarks with a removable pencil to ensure perfect use of the product. The actual injection portion of the procedure lasts 2-3 minutes.
