Kybella in escondido, CA
KYBELLA is a non-surgical injection used to reduce submental fullness, or “double chin.” This FDA-approved treatment contains deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule that aids in the breakdown of dietary fat. Injecting KYBELLA beneath the chin reduces the appearance of fullness by eliminating fat cells. The treatment addresses explicitly stubborn fat in the submental area, helping to define the jawline and give the face a more contoured profile.
KYBELLA in Escondido, CA, is ideal for adults with excess fat under their chin who desire a non-surgical solution. Patients typically see visible results within 2-4 treatment sessions, with full results appearing after six treatments spaced about a month apart. The results from KYBELLA are considered long-lasting, as the destroyed fat cells cannot store or accumulate fat in the future. If you want a more defined jawline without surgery, consider booking an appointment for KYBELLA at Botoxie in Escondido, CA.

FAQ's
Who is a good candidate for KYBELLA?
KYBELLA is suitable for adults 18 and over with moderate to severe fat under their chin. Good candidates are those who eat well and exercise but still struggle with submental fullness. However, KYBELLA may not be appropriate for those with excessive skin laxity or those with previous cosmetic procedures in the area. A consultation is necessary to determine if KYBELLA is right for you.
When will I see the results from KYBELLA?
Most patients notice visible results from KYBELLA after 2-4 treatment sessions. However, the full effects of KYBELLA typically appear after a series of treatments, which can be up to 6 sessions spaced about a month apart. The gradual fat reduction process continues for several weeks after each treatment.
How long do KYBELLA results last?
KYBELLA results are considered long-lasting. Once the deoxycholic acid in KYBELLA destroys the fat cells, they cannot store or accumulate fat in the future. Maintaining a stable weight is essential to maintain your results, as significant weight gain may affect the treated area.
Is there any downtime or side effects with KYBELLA?
While KYBELLA is a non-surgical treatment, some downtime and side effects can occur. The most common side effects are bruising, swelling, pain, numbness, and redness. These typically resolve within a few days to weeks. There is usually minimal downtime, with most patients returning to normal activities within 24-48 hours—however, schedule treatments when you have yet to plan major social events the following week.
What should I do before and after KYBELLA treatment?
Before KYBELLA treatment, avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements for about a week to reduce the risk of bruising. After treatment, apply ice to the area to minimize swelling, and avoid strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours. Avoid excessive sun exposure and apply sunscreen to the treated area. Follow specific instructions from your healthcare provider for best results and recovery.
What can I expect during KYBELLA treatment?
During a KYBELLA treatment session, your provider applies a numbing cream and cleans the area. Following that, you will receive a series of small injections under your chin. The number of injections varies based on the amount of fat and your desired results. The procedure typically takes about 15-20 minutes. You may feel a burning or stinging sensation during and shortly after the injections, which is normal and usually subsides quickly.
