What patients say about Kybella in Houston

Verified patient
Kybella

Two Kybella sessions and my double chin is noticeably smaller. Swelling for a few days after each treatment, but they warned me and it was worth it.

What is Kybella?

Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable made from deoxycholic acid, a molecule the body uses to break down dietary fat. Injected under the chin, it destroys fat cells so the body can clear them — and treated fat cells do not come back.

It is a strong option for people bothered by fullness under the chin that does not respond to diet and exercise, including those who are otherwise fit or have a genetic tendency to store fat there.

How the treatment works

Your provider marks a grid under the chin and places a series of small injections. The procedure takes about 15 to 20 minutes. Most patients need two to four sessions spaced about six weeks apart.

What Kybella can help with

  • Double chin (submental fullness)

  • Undefined jawline profile

  • Patients who want to avoid liposuction

Before and after your appointment

  1. Swelling under the chin is expected and is part of how the treatment works — plan around social events.
  2. Temporary numbness or firmness can last a few weeks.
  3. Results build gradually after each session.
  4. Maintaining a stable weight helps you keep your result.

Kybella in Houston: frequently asked questions

Each practice in Houston sets its own pricing, which depends on the provider's experience and the amount of treatment you need. Across the US, typical pricing is $600–$1,500 per session. Book a consultation with one of the providers above for an exact quote.

Every provider listed on Empire Verified completed hands-on training with Empire Medical Training, and you can compare their credentials and reviews on their profiles.

Treated fat cells are destroyed and do not regenerate. Significant weight gain can still enlarge remaining fat cells.

Most patients need two to four sessions depending on how much fat is present.

Kybella reduces fat but is not designed to tighten skin. Your provider may combine it with skin-tightening treatments or thread lifts.

Patients whose fullness is mostly loose skin rather than fat, or who have certain neck or swallowing conditions, may be better served by other options.
