Kybella® is the only FDA-approved injectable designed to dissolve fat cells beneath the skin. This non-surgical treatment helps contour and refine the jawline for a slimmer, more sculpted look – no scalpel or stitches required.

How It Works

Kybella contains deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that helps safely break down dietary fat. When injected into the fat beneath the chin, it aims to destroy fat cells so they can no longer store or accumulate fat. Once the desired result is achieved, no further treatment is typically needed, making Kybella a long-lasting solution for redefining your lower face.

Our Approach

1

Consultation

We start with a personalized consultation to assess your chin profile and determine if Kybella is right for you. We'll discuss your aesthetic goals, review your facial anatomy, and create a custom treatment plan based on the amount of fullness and desired outcome. Book your complimentary consultation here.

2

Treatment

During your appointment, your provider will administer a series of small injections directly into the subcutaneous fat beneath the jawline. Kybella contains synthetic deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule that breaks down and absorbs fat cells. Cold packs may be applied post-treatment to soothe the area and reduce swelling. The procedure typically takes 60 minutes and requires no incisions or anesthesia. 

3

Results

Visible improvement may be seen within 12 weeks after treatment, with continued refinement after a full treatment series. 

4

Maintenance

Most clients require 2-4 treatments spaced 4-8 weeks apart for optimal results, though some clients may find they need up to 6 sessions. Because Kybella promotes the destruction of fat cells, maintenance sessions are usually not needed once your desired outcome is achieved. Meet with a Nuey provider to map out your personalized treatment series.

Your Questions, Answered

  • Who is best suited for Kybella treatments?

    Kybella is ideal for those with localized fullness under the chin and good skin elasticity. It is not intended for overall weight loss or widespread fat reduction. If fullness under the chin is part of a broader weight concern, you may better achieve your goals through a medical weight loss program. A complimentary consultation can help you explore the right path for your goals.

  • Is Kybella permanent?

    Destruction of fat cells is permanent, but new fat accumulation can still occur depending on your lifestyle. With healthy habits, your results can remain long-lasting. 

  • Does Kybella hurt?

    You may experience discomfort during and after treatment. We use ice and numbing agents to minimize pain, and any post-treatment tenderness typically resolves in a few days. 

  • How does pricing work?

    Kybella is priced per vial. During your consultation, your provider can recommend the most efficient path to your desired results, tailored to your goals, timeline, and budget. At Nuey, we’re committed to price transparency and partner with trusted suppliers to deliver exceptional value without compromising care, safety, or results.

  • What is the downtime?

    Swelling is expected, with peak swelling often lasting 5-7 days. Your provider will give you a compression wrap to wear the first 24-48 hours, then intermittently for 3-5 days to help minimize swelling. We recommend scheduling your Kybella treatment at least four weeks before any special plans or events to allow time for the swelling and bruising to subside. For detailed after-care instructions, please refer to our Kybella Treatment Care Guide.

  • Can I get Kybella while pregnant or breastfeeding?

    Kybella is not recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

  • How can I prepare for my treatment and what should I expect after?
