Say Goodbye to Your Double Chin

Kybella treatments can permanently eliminate your double chin for a youthful jawline.

Double Chin Treatments

A double chin, often called a “turkey neck,” can emerge as we age, caused by genetics or the natural loss of skin elasticity, making us look older and less vibrant than we feel. This stubborn submental fullness can erode your confidence, but Dr. Scherer offers a permanent, non-surgical solution with Kybella to restore your jawline’s elegance and help you rediscover the youthful, self-assured version of yourself in the mirror.

Introducing: Kybella

Kybella is an FDA-approved, non-surgical treatment that can permanently eliminate the stubborn fat under your chin, known as submental fullness, to reveal a more defined and youthful jawline. With just a few quick sessions, each lasting less than 20 minutes, you can achieve a slimmer profile that lasts, as the destroyed fat cells are gone for good.

How Does it Work?

Kybella uses deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule, to target and destroy fat cells under your chin through a series of small injections, with results appearing over four to six weeks as your body naturally clears the fat. Suitable for both men and women, this non-surgical treatment requires one to six sessions, each under 20 minutes, delivering a permanently slimmer jawline as the fat cells are eliminated for good.

Common side effects include swelling, bruising, and numbness, lasting 1-2 weeks, with rare risks like nerve injury; Dr. Scherer monitors recovery for safety.

Who is a good candidate for Kybella treatment?

Kybella suits adults with moderate to severe chin fat, but not those with loose skin, infections, or pregnancy; Dr. Scherer will assess your suitability.

How long do Kybella results last?

Results are permanent as destroyed fat cells don’t return, but maintaining a stable weight helps preserve the jawline long-term.

What should I do to prepare for a Kybella treatment?

Avoid blood thinners like aspirin a week before, inform Dr. Scherer of medical conditions, and arrive with a clean face to reduce infection risk.

How much does Kybella cost, and is it covered by insurance?

Cost varies by treatment number and location, typically not covered by insurance as it’s cosmetic; Dr. Scherer’s office can provide a quote.

Can Kybella be used for areas other than the chin?

Kybella is FDA-approved only for the chin; off-label use elsewhere isn’t recommended without consultation with Dr. Scherer.
