How KYBELLA Works

The active ingredient in KYBELLA is deoxycholic acid, a naturally-occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into the fat beneath your chin, the deoxycholic formula causes the destruction of fat cells. Once destroyed, those cells cannot store or accumulate fat.

The SF Bay Area Plastic Surgery difference

We recommend that you schedule a consultation to determine if KYBELLA is the right treatment option for you. During your treatment, our clinical staff will mark out the area(s) that will be treated with injections. A numbing agent may be used to make the procedure more comfortable and tolerable. Multiple injections with a small, fine needle will be made into the fatty tissues under the chin. The entire procedure only lasts a few minutes. You may experience warmth and swelling following your treatment, but it will eventually fade.

Having a mini-thigh lift was a no-brainer because the scars go into the thigh crease and are barely visible anyway. The lift definitely reverses years of gravity’s effects and smooths away the dimples and ripples, too.
