Kybella offers a non-surgical solution to reduce double chins by dissolving fat cells, leading to a more defined jawline and improved facial profile.

Having a double chin can be a self-conscious area, even if you follow a healthy diet and get plenty of exercise. A double chin is often genetic, and it typically requires more than an active lifestyle to restore a youthful jawline free from excess fat. Fortunately, at Pure Beauty Medical Spa, we provide Kybella injections, a non-surgical solution for a double chin. Kybella injections use deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, to break down excess fat under the chin, revealing more sculpted, youthful contours.

Kybella is a double chin injection treatment that melts away submental (under chin) fat while leaving the surrounding tissues unharmed. Kybella is a long-lasting treatment for double chin fat, as the fat cells affected by the injections will be gone forever. This innovative injectable product delivers real-world results, as it affects only the unwanted fat cells. After your treatment of Kybella in Newport Beach, the fat cells affected will be slowly shed by your body, naturally.
What Is the Secret Behind Kybella?
Kybella’s active ingredient is deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring stomach acid that helps break down and absorb fat during digestion. When injected into the double chin area, it targets fat cells to contour the neck and help restore a more youthful, sculpted jawline by destroying under-chin fat. Some of our younger patients have noticed lifted and tightened skin as well with Kybella in Rancho Santa Margarita and Newport Beach.




Our Kybella injections at Pure Beauty Medical Spa are performed by a formally trained medical professional. For many people, three to four 30-minute injection sessions will achieve optimal results, but this varies from person to person.
Kybella treatments require a series of injections in a grid pattern into the double chin fat. We perform our treatments of Kybella in Newport Beach with ultimate precision and care, and do all we can to make your experience painless and positive.
Kybella is used to treat submental fullness, which may be caused by genetics, weight gain, or the natural effects of aging. This unwanted fat can be stubborn, often remaining even after other areas of the body slim down. Kybella injections precisely target submental fat, offering a non-surgical way to refine your chin and neckline.
Kybella is a minimally invasive injectable treatment with little to no recovery time. It’s ideal for patients who want visible improvement in their jawline without surgery, anesthesia, or scars. Many patients appreciate how Kybella works gradually, letting the treated area improve over several weeks. The Kybella treatment also comes with peace of mind: it’s an FDA-approved treatment developed by Allergan Aesthetics, the makers of Botox and Juvéderm. And because the fat cells are permanently eliminated, the results can be long-lasting, provided that you maintain a healthy lifestyle and a stable weight.

You may be a good candidate for Kybella treatments if you’re a healthy adult with moderate submental fullness and good skin elasticity in the treatment area. During your Kybella consultation, we’ll assess your chin area, discuss your treatment goals, and determine how many injection sessions may be needed. If you have skin laxity or would benefit from more comprehensive tissue tightening, we may recommend combining Kybella with other non-surgical options to improve skin tone and firmness in the treatment area.
No special preparation is required before you undergo Kybella injections. Our injection expert can advise you whether this treatment is right for you. For larger quantities of under-chin fat, you may choose to undergo a series of Kybella treatments to achieve your goal.

You might experience slight discomfort (burning and tingling) for 30 minutes immediately following treatment. Some patients also experience swelling, numbness, bruising, and tenderness to touch after treatment.
These side effects do not last long and are less and less at each subsequent treatment. If you experience any discomfort, it is easily handled by an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen. Our team will provide clear aftercare instructions to support optimal results from your Kybella treatment.

Kybella contains synthetic deoxycholic acid, which helps break down and absorb dietary fat. When injected into submental fat, it destroys fat cells, which are then gradually eliminated by the body.
Most patients require between 2 and 4 Kybella injection sessions to achieve a slimmer chin area. The exact number of treatments depends on the amount of fat in the treatment area and your response to the injections.
Kybella primarily reduces fat, but many patients notice some tissue tightening as the area remodels. However, for patients with moderate to severe skin laxity, we may recommend combining Kybella with a skin tightening treatment like RF microneedling.
Common side effects of Kybella include swelling, bruising, numbness, and tenderness at the injection sites. Rare risks of adverse events include facial muscle weakness, difficulty swallowing, or temporary nerve injury. Working with a qualified and experienced provider minimizes these risks.
