What Is Kybella®?

Kybella® is the only FDA-approved, non-invasive treatment for fat deposits under the chin. The working ingredient in Kybella® is a molecule that is naturally occurring in the body and that assists with the breakdown of fats in the diet.

How Much Does Kybella® in Norwich Cost?

Financing are available for your Kybella® treatments, but we also accept payments by check, cash and credit card. The cost of the procedure will be disclosed when you meet with Dr. Martin for consultation.

Benefits of Kybella®

Kybella® strategically eliminates fat cells, resulting in an obvious reduction in facial fullness without surgery. Once eliminated, these cells can no longer store fat.

Who Is the Ideal Candidate for Kybella®?

Anyone with fatty deposits beneath the chin may be an excellent candidate for Kybella®.

What Do I Need to Do Before Having Kybella®?

You will be examined to confirm that you are a good candidate for any Kybella®. Tell the doctor if you have had any other injections within the past four months, and you may be required to stop drinking alcohol 48 hours before your injection.

How Long Does It Take to Perform Kybella®?

Kybella® injections take as little as 15 to 20 minutes to complete. Injections are performed in our Norwich offices.

What to Expect After Kybella®

Some patients may experience facial weakness or difficulty swallowing as well as numbness and swelling on or around the injection site.

Kybella® FAQs

Will I Have Scars After Kybella®?

There is no scarring with Kybella®. Enjoy great results without invasive surgery!

When Will I See The Results?

You will see the results of your injection within a month..

How long does Kybella® last?

The results of your Kybella® treatment have the potential to be permanent. Kybella® is the only injectable treatment that melts away your unwanted stubborn fat. Once the fat in your treated areas is naturally eliminated from the body, it is never replaced with new fat cells. This means that your Kybella® results can last you a lifetime with a healthy diet and regular exercise.

Does Kybella® leave loose skin?

No, Kybella® treatments do not typically leave loose skin underneath the chin after treatment. This is because the fat dissolving benefits of Kybella® happen slowly over a period of weeks. Patients who do find that they have a small amount of loose skin under their chin following Kybella® treatments may benefit from skin tightening treatments like Vivace™ RF microneedling.

Is Kybella® only for the chin?

Yes, Kybella® should only be used to dissolve unwanted stubborn fat or submental fat from under the chin. This is because the deoxycholic acid in Kybella® breaks down the cells in the treated areas. While this does get rid of your stubborn and unwanted pockets of fat under the chin, it has the potential to be unsafe for the surrounding tissues if used in other areas of the body.

How old should I be to get Kybella®?

While there is no perfect age to get Kybella®, ideal candidates for Kybella® treatments are at least 18 years or older and are unhappy with the appearance of their double chin. At Connecticut Surgical Arts, we typically see men and women as young as their early 20s and as mature as their late 50s come in for Kybella® treatments.

Does Kybella® Hurt?

While many of our patients report a mild burning sensation, most patients report little to no discomfort throughout their Kybella® treatments. Our expert medical professionals will apply a topical anesthetic to your treatment area to ensure you remain as pain-free as possible throughout your treatment. While some mild swelling, tenderness, and bruising may occur following treatment, these side effects typically subside on their own within a few days of treatment.
