Kybella® in Lexington, KY
Non-Surgical Double Chin Treatment
If you’re tired of seeing a double chin in the mirror or photos, Kybella® offers a safe, FDA-approved way to permanently destroy stubborn fat beneath the chin without surgery. At Reflections Medspa & Wellness Center in Lexington, KY, we provide personalized injections to contour your jawline, improve your facial profile, and boost your confidence.
What Is Kybella®?
Kybella® is the first and only FDA-approved injectable treatment that eliminates fat cells under the chin. Its active ingredient, synthetic deoxycholic acid, mimics a natural bile acid found in the body that breaks down dietary fat. Once injected, this treatment targets and destroys fat cells, preventing them from storing fat in the future.
How This Treatment Works
When the injections are strategically placed under the chin, the deoxycholic acid targets and disrupts the fat cell membrane, causing the fat to break down. In the weeks that follow, your body naturally processes and eliminates the treated fat cells. Once removed, these cells are gone for good.
Kybella® for Double Chin
Submental fullness, commonly referred to as a double chin, can be caused by genetics, weight gain, or aging, and it often doesn’t respond to diet or exercise. This injectable treatment is designed specifically to target this stubborn area, helping you achieve a slimmer, more defined profile.
