As a new patient, I was impressed with my entire visit. The front office staff was friendly and helpful. The Nurse Practitioner, Michelle Mudjar assisted by Alex performed a small procedure. I immediately felt I was in good hands. They explained exactly what they were doing and answered all my questions.

💉 What Is Kybella?

Kybella is an injectable treatment composed of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in breaking down and absorbing dietary fat. When injected into the fat beneath the chin, Kybella targets and destroys fat cells, which are then metabolized and flushed out by your body over the following weeks. Once these fat cells are gone, they’re gone for good—meaning your results are permanent as long as you maintain a stable weight.

💡 How Does Kybella Work?

The treatment involves a series of precisely placed injections under the chin, administered by our board-certified dermatologists and cosmetic experts. Here’s what you can expect:

Step-by-Step:

  1. Consultation:
    • We evaluate your chin profile and discuss your aesthetic goals to ensure that Kybella is the right fit for you.
  2. Customized Treatment Plan:
    • Most patients require 2–4 sessions, spaced about 4–6 weeks apart. Some individuals may require up to 6 sessions, depending on the amount of fat to be treated.
  3. Injections:
    • The procedure takes about 15–20 minutes. A topical numbing agent is used for your comfort.
  4. Recovery:
    • Mild swelling, bruising, and numbness are common and usually subside within a few days.
