Benefits of Kybella in Santa Monica
Permanent Results
Once Kybella breaks down the fat cells under your chin, they won’t come back.
Nonsurgical
Kybella is a minimally invasive treatment, meaning no knives, no incisions, and no recovery time.
Convenient
Each Kybella treatment session only takes about 15 to 30 minutes, making it easy to fit into your busy schedule.
Consultation
Your experience begins with a personalized consultation with a licensed Younique provider. During this one-on-one session, they’ll review your concerns, treatment goals, and medical history. If your provider believes that Kybella is the ideal solution for your needs, they can schedule your treatment session.
Procedure
A Kybella injection session typically takes around 15 to 20 minutes, making it an ideal “lunchtime” procedure. To begin, your Younique provider will remove any makeup and cleanse the treatment area thoroughly. They’ll then apply a topical numbing agent to ensure your comfort and mark a “grid” to guarantee precise injections and even distribution.
Recovery
We typically schedule treatments about 6 weeks apart to give your body time to heal between sessions. With Kybella in Santa Monica, no downtime is required, so you can resume your normal activities right away. Some swelling and tenderness may occur for 3 to 7 days following the injections. Results from Kybella show a few weeks after your first session and are permanent.

How does Kybella destroy fat cells in my double chin?
Kybella contains deoxycholic acid, which is naturally found in your body and helps break down fats during digestion. Since it’s something your body already uses, it’s totally safe and there’s no risk of allergic reactions.
Once Kybella is injected, it permanently destroys fat cells. Your body then processes and disposes of the remnants, creating a smoother, more defined chin.
What causes a double chin?
Here are some of the usual suspects behind a double chin:
- Aging: As the years go by, muscles tend to relax and skin loosens. This increases the likelihood that a double chin will make an appearance.
- Genetics: If your family tree has a few double chins hanging around, there’s a good chance you might inherit one too. Genetics can influence how your body stores fat and holds onto water, both of which can contribute to a double chin.
- Extra Weight: Carrying a bit of extra weight can definitely contribute to the formation of a double chin. But even people with a healthy weight can find themselves with a little extra chin.
