Kybella

Kybella in Newport Beach

Kybella is the only FDA-approved and clinically proven injectable treatment for “double-chin,” or fat beneath the chin. This extra fat is largely due to genetic factors and the natural aging process. It generally is not responsive to diet and exercise. Kybella is comprised of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that aids in the destruction of fat cells.

As a board certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Razfar has a deep understanding of facial beauty and anatomy. He will use Kybella to dissolve a precise amount of fat creating an ideal neck contour. The procedure is minimally invasive with no incisions or downtime. Kybella treatments are short and virtually painless.

How many treatments are necessary?

A unique treatment plan will be devised after evaluation of your chin profile. Most patients will see visible results with 2 to 4 treatments spaced 1 month apart. A maximum of 6 treatments may be performed.

How long will the results last?

Since Kybella acts to destroy fat cells in the body, results from treatment are generally permanent.
