About kybella
Beautologie is proud to be the first to bring Kybella™—also known as "Fat Bombs"—to Bakersfield! Our expert team has undergone extensive training to ensure safe and effective treatment, helping you achieve a more sculpted and contoured appearance.
What is Kybella™?
Kybella™ is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that permanently reduces fat in targeted areas. It contains deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that breaks down and absorbs dietary fat. Once injected, Kybella™ works to destroy fat cells in the treated area, which are then naturally processed and eliminated by the body over time.
What Areas Can Kybella™ Treat?
Kybella™ is most commonly used to eliminate submental fat, also known as a double chin, but it can also be used on other areas with small fat deposits, including:
- Under the chin (double chin)
- Bra bulges (bra rolls)
- Fat around the knees
- Small fat pockets on the abdomen
Unlike traditional liposuction, Kybella™ is a non-invasive, injectable treatment that requires no surgery, anesthesia, or significant downtime—making it an ideal option for those looking for a quick and effective way to sculpt their jawline and body.
Am I a Good Candidate for Kybella™?
Kybella™ is an excellent treatment option for individuals who:
- Have stubborn fat under the chin or in other small areas
- Are at or near their ideal weight but struggle with localized fat pockets
- Want a non-surgical alternative to liposuction
- Prefer a gradual, natural-looking fat reduction
- Have good skin elasticity (to prevent sagging after fat loss)
However, not everyone is a candidate for Kybella™. If you have significant skin laxity, excessive fat, or require more dramatic fat reduction, a surgical option such as liposuction or a neck lift may be recommended.
The best way to determine if Kybella™ is right for you is to schedule a consultation with one of our experts at Beautologie. We will assess your facial structure, skin condition, and treatment goals to create a customized plan tailored just for you.
What to Expect During Your Kybella™ Treatment
Personalized Consultation
Your experience begins with an in-depth consultation with one of our expert injectors. We will evaluate your treatment area, discuss your goals, and determine if Kybella™ is the best option for you.
Treatment Preparation
- The treatment area will be cleansed and numbed for maximum comfort.
- Your provider will use a customized injection grid to precisely mark where Kybella™ will be injected, ensuring even fat reduction and natural-looking results.
Kybella™ Injections
- Kybella™ is strategically injected into the targeted fat area using ultra-fine needles.
- The procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
- While some patients experience a mild tingling or burning sensation, most find the procedure to be very tolerable.
Post-Treatment Recovery & Results
- Swelling, redness, or tenderness is common for the first few days but will gradually subside.
- You can return to most normal activities immediately, though we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours.
- Visible fat reduction occurs gradually as your body metabolizes the destroyed fat cells, with full results appearing in 6-12 weeks.
How Many Kybella™ Treatments Will I Need?
Each patient’s treatment plan is unique. Most individuals require multiple sessions (typically 2-4 treatments) spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results. During your consultation, our experts will recommend the appropriate number of sessions based on your desired results and fat volume.
Is Kybella™ Permanent?
Yes! Kybella™ permanently destroys fat cells, meaning once they are eliminated, they do not return. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with proper diet and exercise is essential to prevent new fat accumulation in untreated areas.
Since Kybella™ does not tighten loose skin, it’s crucial to have good skin elasticity for the best outcome. If needed, additional skin-tightening treatments may be recommended to enhance your results.
