Have you always struggled with a double chin, even after making healthy lifestyle changes? Fortunately, there is a new non-surgical solution. Kybella is an injectable treatment that works to improve the appearance of submental fullness in the neck and chin area.
What is Kybella?
Kybella is the first FDA-approved injectable to treat submental fullness in the chin area. Sometimes, when a patient has fullness in this area it not only will give the appearance of being overweight, but will also make a person look older as well. When Kybella is injected into the chin area it permanently destroys fat cells. The number of treatments needed varies from patient to patient, so the right number of treatments for you will be determined by your doctor.
Is Kybella Right for Me?
Oftentimes, a double chin is associated with weight gain. However, it is actually more of a result of your genetic makeup. Some people who lead a relatively healthy lifestyle still retain more fat in certain areas, like the chin. In order to tell if you are a good candidate for Kybella, you should schedule a consultation with Dr. Taylor.

Kybella is a very effective alternative to more invasive surgical treatments, such as liposuction, that can require more downtime. If you are interested in Kybella treatments, contact our Fayetteville office today to request more information or to schedule a consultation.
