INJECTION
Kybella
At Milani Medspa, we offer Kybella®, the only FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to permanently eliminate submental fat—commonly known as a “double chin.” This non-surgical treatment uses a naturally occurring molecule to break down and absorb unwanted fat, helping you achieve a more defined jawline and confident profile without incisions or recovery time.
What Is Kybella®?
Kybella® is an injectable formulation of deoxycholic acid, a substance naturally produced by your body to help break down dietary fat. When injected into the fat beneath the chin, Kybella® destroys fat cells, which are then naturally flushed out by your body over time. Once the cells are gone, they cannot regenerate—making results long-lasting and permanent with proper maintenance.
What It Treats
- Double chin (submental fullness)
- Jawline definition
- Mild to moderate fat beneath the chin

- Downtime: Minimal; most swelling resolves within a few days

FAQ
Q: Does the Kybella Treatment Hurt?
A: A small needle injects Kybella under the chin during a treatment. Ice reduces the discomfort while the injections are being performed. You may feel sore for a day or so after your treatment but over-the-counter ibuprofen or acetaminophen lessens the soreness, if needed until it goes away.
Q: How long does it take to see the result:
A: Usually takes about 6-8 weeks after the last treatment to see the full results. You may need more than one treatment to achieve your desired result. Each session will be 4-6 weeks apart.
