Kybella is a liquid injection of a medicine that has been in use for over 20 years for other medical applications. It has natural fat-destroying activity. It is FDA approved to destroy fat cells under the chin giving a better side profile for those wishing to improve this area. The procedure takes 15-20 minutes. small amounts of the liquid are injected just under the skin to the fatty layer. over a period of 2-3 months, the fat is slowly destroyed and absorbed by the body. What is left behind is collagen and other stronger tissue that gives the neck a firmer and thinner appearance on profile. Since there is fat destruction, there is some pain involved but this can usually be managed with ice and lasts for approximately 15-30 minutes after the procedure. Most people require 2 or 3 treatments 2 months apart for remarkable results. Dr. Horton is an expert with using Kybella.
