Kybella® is an injectable, non-surgical treatment used to reduce fullness beneath the chin. It contains a synthetic compound that mimics a naturally occurring body substance, aiding in the breakdown of fat. Once treated, the fat cells are gradually cleared away, revealing a slimmer, more defined jawline over time. As the only FDA-approved chin fat-dissolving injection for moderate to severe submental fullness, Kybella® works whether the cause is genetics, weight fluctuations, or simply the way your face is built.
Submental fullness is one of the most common concerns we hear from patients across Sacramento and surrounding communities. It can persist even with the active lifestyle that Sacramento’s outdoor culture encourages, from cycling the American River Parkway to paddleboarding at Folsom Lake. At Pretty Please Aesthetics, our experienced providers use precise injection techniques to deliver safe, effective, and natural-looking results. Whether your goal is to enhance your jawline or reduce fullness under the chin, we customize every Kybella® treatment to help you achieve a more contoured and confident appearance.
Excess fat beneath the chin can be resistant to diet and exercise. Kybella® injections target and permanently destroy fat cells in this area, resulting in a slimmer, more defined jawline over time. Before treatment, we assess fat volume, overlying skin laxity, and anatomical landmarks to ensure safe and accurate placement.
Your provider will evaluate the treatment area, discuss your concerns, and determine whether Kybella® is the right solution for your goals. We discuss the estimated number of sessions and vials upfront, with no surprises.
The submental skin is cleansed, and a treatment grid is marked to guide even injection distribution. Topical or injectable anesthesia is applied to ensure your comfort.
A series of small injections is administered beneath the chin to target and break down fat cells. Total injection points and vials depend on submental fat volume and your treatment protocol.
You will receive detailed aftercare instructions to help with healing and optimize results. Swelling peaks at 24 to 72 hours and is expected as part of the fat-destruction process. Firmness, numbness, and bruising in the submental area are common and typically resolve within 2 to 6 weeks. We will walk you through what the recovery timeline looks like and how to manage it comfortably in Sacramento’s warm climate.
Results appear progressively as your body naturally processes and removes the treated fat cells. Your provider will curate a personalized treatment plan based on your desired outcome.
