GlossaryKybella

injectable treatment that dissolves fat under the chin

Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that contains deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that helps break down and absorb dietary fat. It is primarily used to reduce submental fat, commonly known as a "double chin," by destroying fat cells in the treatment area, leading to a more contoured jawline.
