Submental fullness refers to the pocket of fat under the chin. Kybella injections contain deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps break down fat in the digestive system. When injected into the fat under the chin, the medication destroys fat cells.
Then, your body slowly removes them from the area, leaving you with a slimmer facial profile. Once the fat is gone, it doesn’t return.
Most people are good candidates for Kybella injections. This medication works well for clients who might be unhappy with extra fat under the chin, even if they’ve had it their entire life.
Some people are born with submental fullness because it runs in the family. The pocket of fat may also appear if you gain weight — but it doesn’t disappear when you lose it. Aging also contributes to this stubborn pocket of fat under the chin.
If you’re unhappy about extra fat under your chin and don’t want surgery, Kybella might be an excellent solution.
The team at Artem Med Spa can talk to you in more detail about Kybella and help you decide if it’s the right treatment for you.
At Artem Med Spa, the team tailors your Kybella treatment plan to you so that you remain comfortable during your sessions.
Your provider applies a numbing cream to the skin under your chin before giving the injections. They then administer multiple injections into the fat under the chin.
You might feel pressure but no pain during your Kybella injections. You may experience some redness, bruising, and swelling at the injection site afterward. These side effects resolve quickly, within a week or so.
There’s no need for downtime after treatment. You can go back to your usual routine.
Results from Kybella can vary from person to person, but many patients notice visible improvements in their profile within 2-4 months of starting treatment. As the treatment works to break down and eliminate unwanted fat cells, your jawline and chin area gradually become more defined, enhancing your overall appearance. These natural-looking results are long-lasting, as the treated fat cells are permanently removed, giving you a slimmer, more contoured profile.
At Artem Med Spa, your provider customizes your Kybella treatment plan to align with your individual needs and goals. To achieve the best possible outcomes, a series of about six monthly injections may be recommended. Each session is carefully spaced to allow your body to metabolize the treated fat cells while ensuring your comfort throughout the process. Your provider will monitor your progress closely to ensure you’re on track to meet your desired results.
If you’re ready to redefine your profile and boost your confidence, our team is here to help.

Let Artem Med Spa guide you on your journey to a more sculpted, confident you.
