Kybella™
Beautologie is the first to bring Kybella™, also known as "Fat Bombs", to Bakersfield. The makers of the medication have made the product available to Beautologie after undergoing a complete training on the use and administering this new treatment.
What is Kybella™?
Kybella™ is the first FDA approved non-surgical treatment to permanently remove the submental fat beneath the chin. It can also be used for bra rolls, knee fat, and the abdomen. It is a prescription medication that is injected to improve the contour and reduce the appearance of submental fat below the chin, sometimes called a “double-chin”. The medication includes a naturally occurring molecule that eats fat. It is a safe and effective medical spa procedure that involves no surgery.
Am I a good candidate for Kybella™?
Not everyone is a good candidate for the treatment. Some patients will need to lose weight first, or may need a surgical option to achieve the optimal results. A complimentary consultation with a Beautologie Aesthetic Medicine provider will help determine if the patient is a candidate for the treatment.
What can I expect at my appointment?
If you are a candidate and after a complete exam, evaluation and consultation with one of Beautologie’s expert injectors, you will be provided a treatment plan and all of the information to make an informed decision. The actual procedure is very comfortable because you are provided a numbing medication before the treatment is started. Your injector will then prepare the treatment area and mark the locations of injections to target the fat.
How many injections will I need?
Your doctor or nurse will help determine that with you at your consultation appointment.
Is it permanent?
Kybella is a permanent solution but can require several treatments. It is important to keep your scheduled follow-up visits to monitor progress as well as evaluate the patient's needs for further Kybella injections.

FAQ
Kybella™ is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that uses deoxycholic acid to break down and absorb fat cells under the chin, improving the appearance of submental fullness.
Kybella™ is injected into the fat under the chin, where it breaks down and destroys fat cells. The body then naturally processes and eliminates the damaged fat cells over time, resulting in a more contoured jawline.
Kybella™ is generally suitable for individuals with moderate to severe submental fullness who are in good overall health and have realistic expectations for the treatment. It's important to discuss your medical history and any medications you are taking with your healthcare provider before undergoing treatment.
A Kybella™ treatment typically takes about 15-20 minutes, although this may vary depending on the size of the treatment area and the number of injections required.
The number of Kybella™ treatments needed varies depending on the individual's goals and the severity of their submental fullness. Most patients require 2-4 treatments, spaced at least 1 month apart, to achieve their desired results.
Most patients report feeling a mild to moderate burning or stinging sensation during and immediately after Kybella™ injections. Some patients may experience swelling, bruising, or numbness in the treatment area.
The recovery process after Kybella™ treatment varies depending on the individual, but most patients can resume normal activities within a few days. Swelling and bruising in the treatment area are common and may last for several days or up to 2 weeks.
Common side effects of Kybella™ include swelling, bruising, redness, and numbness in the treatment area. More serious side effects, although rare, may include nerve injury or difficulty swallowing. It's important to discuss any potential risks or concerns with your healthcare provider before undergoing treatment.
The results of Kybella™ are generally long-lasting, as the destroyed fat cells are eliminated from the body permanently. However, maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine is important to prevent the accumulation of new fat cells in the treatment area.
