KYBELLA/PCDC

What It Is
Kybella/PCDC is the FDA-approved injectable treatment to improve the appearance and profile of moderate to severe fat below the chin (submental fat) and surrounding area.
How It Works
The active ingredient in Kybella/PCDC is synthetic deoxycholic acid. Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into the fat beneath the chin, Kybella/PCDC destroys fat cells, and once destroyed, these cells can no longer store or accumulate fat. This results in a noticeable reduction in fullness under the chin, revealing an improved chin profile.
What To Expect
The treatment takes approximately 45 minutes. Kybella/PCDC will be injected in multiple small amounts into the treatment areas using a fine needle.
