An Introduction

Abolish your double chin without surgery with Kybella — a revolutionary way to decrease fat under the chin without scars or downtime. Kybella injections by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Carlos Mata provide tremendous results without the operating expense and pain of neck liposuction. The active ingredient in Kybella is deoxycholic acid, which destroys the cells of fat beneath the chin.

01
vs. Surgical Lipo

Kybella vs. Surgical Chin Liposuction

Kybella is an alternative to surgical neck liposuction for patients who only need fat removed from the area under their chin. If the patient wants fat removed from the rest of the neck, surgical neck liposuction is the best option. Dr. Mata will help every patient determine their best treatment plan after listening to their concerns and goals in the initial consultation.

02
What to Expect

Treatment Plan

After cleaning the area, Dr. Mata will inject Kybella into multiple sites under the patient's chin. Most patients will begin to see visible results in 2-4 treatment sessions. Patients may have up to 6 treatment sessions with less than a month in between each session. After treatment, patients may have temporary swelling, bruising, pain, numbness, or redness.

03
How It Works

Deoxycholic Acid

Deoxycholic acid — the active ingredient in Kybella — is a naturally occurring molecule that can be used by the body to break down and destroy fat. Once destroyed, these fat cells cannot return.
