Kybella
Approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for patients 18 and older, KYBELLA® at Elko Replenish Med Spa in Elko, NV, offers an innovative solution for the reduction of submental fullness or “double chin.” This cutting-edge, injectable treatment is designed to target and destroy fat cells beneath the chin without the need for incisions, surgery, or substantial recovery time. Utilizing a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body, KYBELLA® works by breaking down the walls of fat cells, rendering them unable to store fat. Over time, these cells are naturally metabolized and eliminated from the body, resulting in a more contoured and refined chin profile. If you are looking for a safe and excellent double chin fat loss treatment, the expert team at Elko Replenish Med Spa can help you achieve a slimmer, more toned under-chin and jawline aesthetic with long-lasting results.

HOW IS THE KYBELLA® PROCEDURE PERFORMED?
The KYBELLA® treatment involves precise injections of its active ingredient, deoxycholic acid, into targeted fat deposits beneath the chin and/or along the jawline. The area is first marked with a grid to ensure equal distribution of Kybella, minimizing the risk of contour irregularity. An ice pack is used while the numbing medicine takes effect. After 5-10 minutes, Kybella is injected into the area of interest. This process is virtually painless. Ice packs are then reapplied for another 5-10 minutes. Kybella immediately begins to permanently destroy the fat cells. The procedure, typically lasting about 15-30 minutes, is performed with an ultra-thin needle to minimize discomfort. An anesthetic can be applied topically for added comfort. The specific needs and goals of each patient will determine the exact duration and approach of the treatment.
WHAT IS RECOVERY FROM KYBELLA® LIKE?
Most patients are able to return to their normal activities within one to two days, sometimes even on the same day as the treatment. Temporary swelling, bruising, or tenderness may occur but should resolve naturally over time. The full effects of KYBELLA® are usually visible after two to four treatments, with a total of six sessions recommended for optimal results, spaced at least one month apart.
WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS OF KYBELLA®?
The most common side effects include temporary swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection sites, similar to reactions from other injectable treatments. Less commonly, numbness or redness under the chin may occur. Patients are encouraged to consult with their provider at Elko Replenish Med Spa if they have any concerns post-treatment.
HOW LONG DOES KYBELLA® LAST?
Once the desired results are achieved, repeat treatment is generally not necessary, thanks to the permanent elimination of the targeted fat cells. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is crucial to prevent the remaining fat cells from enlarging. This approach ensures a durable and defined under-chin contour.
HOW MUCH DOES KYBELLA® COST?
The cost of KYBELLA® is influenced by the amount of product needed and the number of sessions required to meet your aesthetic goals.
