Kybella at Aère Aesthetics

Creating Contour and sophistication

Kybella is one of the advanced tools we use at Aère Aesthetics Beverly Hills to address fullness beneath the chin when lifestyle changes alone are not enough. In the right candidate, refining the jawline can bring the entire face into better balance and help the profile feel more intentional, while still looking like you.

Our nationally recognized injectors carefully assess your anatomy, skin quality, and overall facial proportions before recommending any treatment. Kybella is often integrated into a broader plan (such as facial balancing or skin tightening) to create a cohesive, natural-looking result.

What Is Kybella?

Targeted Double Chin Reduction

Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable designed to permanently eliminate targeted fat cells under the chin. Its active ingredient, deoxycholic acid, is a molecule that already exists in the body and helps break down dietary fat. In aesthetic medicine, it can be used with precision to contour specific areas.

Once treated, the disrupted fat cells are gradually cleared by the body and do not regenerate. Most patients need a series of 2–4 sessions, spaced several weeks apart, to achieve their desired outcome, with visible improvement typically developing over about three months. Your Aère Aesthetics provider will partner with you to design a personalized plan, aligning Kybella with your overall aesthetic goals, lifestyle, and comfort level.

What To Expect From Your Kybella Treatment

Precise treatments From expert injectors

Creating refined contours

Each visit begins with photos and a comprehensive evaluation of your under-chin area, jawline, and neck, considering balance and overall facial harmony.

Your expert injector will map a treatment grid to guide exact placement, then review how many sessions may be appropriate based on your unique anatomy and degree of fullness.

After cleansing and applying a topical numbing cream or other comfort measures, a series of small injections is made into the treatment area using a fine needle. Most visits take around 20–30 minutes once preparation is complete. You can expect noticeable swelling in the days that follow as the product begins working in the fat layer.

What Concerns Can Kybella Treat?

Refining the Profile and Reducing Fullness

Kybella is an injectable treatment formulated to reduce submental fullness. This fullness is often influenced by genetics, aging, or weight fluctuations and may remain even when you are at a healthy weight.

Kybella does not correct loose or crepey skin, prominent neck bands, or fat in other regions. When skin laxity or muscle changes are the main concern, your provider may recommend complementary or alternative treatments.

What Areas Can Kybella Treat Safely and Effectively?

Precision Sculpting for Submental Fat

We use Kybella to non-surgically sculpt the submental area beneath the chin, refining jawline and neck definition. For other areas of the body, our team typically recommends alternative treatments tailored to those specific concerns.

What Are The Benefits Of Kybella?

Targeted Fat Reduction With No Incisions

Kybella can help refine the lower face and under-chin area.

Non-surgical treatment

Treated fat cells are gone for good

Many patients value that this precise, localized approach creates a noticeable change in a part of their body that has been hard to sculpt on their own, while preserving their natural features, expressions, and overall look.

Is Kybella Right For Me?

You may be a good candidate for Kybella if you:

  • Have mild to moderate submental fullness that persists despite a healthy lifestyle
  • Prefer a non-surgical, injectable approach
  • Are comfortable with temporary swelling and a series of sessions to achieve gradual improvement
  • Have reasonably good skin elasticity

Kybella is not right for everyone. It may not be appropriate if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have certain medical conditions, or have had prior procedures in the area that could affect safety. It is also not a weight-loss treatment; it is designed to refine a focused pocket of fullness.

Kybella Recovery

Recovery after Kybella is distinctive because swelling is expected and often quite visible in the first several days. This response is part of how the treatment works on the targeted fat cells. You may also notice a sense of fullness, firmness, or mild numbness under the chin as the area heals.

To support a smoother experience, we generally recommend:

  • Scheduling sessions when you can accommodate a few days of noticeable swelling
  • Avoiding strenuous exercise immediately after injections
  • Sleeping with your head slightly elevated for the first few nights
  • Following the tailored aftercare guidance provided by your Aère injector

Bruising and tenderness can occur but typically fade with time. As swelling gradually resolves over the following weeks, early refinement in the jawline and under-chin contour begins to emerge.

When Can I See Results?

Most patients begin to notice subtle changes after one to two Kybella sessions. However, a series of treatments is usually recommended to reach a refined, balanced result. Sessions are typically spaced at least a month apart to allow the area to recover and for the body to clear treated fat cells.

Because swelling can temporarily obscure definition, it may take several weeks after each appointment to appreciate the true contour. Your provider will guide you on what to expect at each stage so that the process feels intentional and predictable.

How Long Does Kybella Last?

Once Kybella has disrupted fat cells in the treated area, those specific cells are gone. This is why results are considered long-lasting, especially when you maintain a stable weight and healthy habits.

That said, the neck and jawline will continue to evolve with time. Natural aging, skin quality, and lifestyle factors can all influence the overall appearance of this area in the future. During your consultation, your Aère provider can discuss how Kybella may fit into a broader, regenerative plan to support a refined profile now and in the years ahead.

Kybella Frequently Asked Questions

Most patients need 2–3 sessions, though this can vary. Your recommended series depends on the amount of submental fullness, your anatomy, and how refined you'd like your profile to appear. During your consultation, your expert injector will evaluate your contours, discuss your goals, and design a personalized treatment plan, including an anticipated number of sessions and timing between visits.

You may notice a brief stinging, pressure, or warmth during and shortly after the injections. To keep you comfortable, we typically use topical numbing and other evidence-based comfort measures. Most patients describe the sensation as very tolerable, and any discomfort usually softens significantly within the first 24 hours.

Swelling under the chin is expected and can be pronounced for the first 72 hours. Many patients choose to schedule Kybella before a long weekend, remote work days, or a lighter social calendar. Others feel comfortable returning to regular routines right away, knowing that the area will temporarily look fuller before gradually refining over the following weeks.

Kybella can be an excellent option for carefully selected patients with localized fullness under the chin who prefer a nonsurgical, injectable approach. However, if there is more significant fat, skin laxity, or broader contour concerns, surgical procedures or alternative technologies may offer a more comprehensive result. Your provider will guide you honestly on which path aligns best with your anatomy and goals.

Yes. Kybella is often integrated into a full-face, regenerative plan that may include facial balancing with fillers, skin-tightening treatments, or neuromodulators for neck bands. During your consultation, your provider will review your overall aesthetic priorities and lifestyle, then recommend a thoughtful sequence and combination of treatments to achieve a natural, harmonious result.
