What Is KYBELLA?
Have you ever worried that you have a "weak" chin or jawline? There are a number of reasons why your chin might lack the definition you desire with one of the most common causes being the accumulation of fat in the upper neck area (also called the submental area). These pockets might develop as a result of age, genetics, or weight fluctuations, all of which can dramatically impact your overall profile. If you live in the San Antonio, TX area and are looking for a nonsurgical solution for submental fat, Arijai Aesthetics can help with KYBELLA. This revolutionary injectable has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of fat under the chin. The active ingredient in KYBELLA is a synthetically made version of deoxycholic acid (DA) that works similarly to the body's natural DA to break down and absorb fat cells. Once it has been injected beneath the chin, you should see a noticeable reduction in fat. When the fat is destroyed, the cells cannot return so you can look slimmer and more confident for years to come.
How Do KYBELLA Treatments Work?
KYBELLA injections are administered at our San Antonio, TX practice in our comfortable private treatment rooms. Our team will start by cleansing the treatment area before applying a numbing lotion to the skin. After that, we'll inject the KYBELLA solution into various areas of the upper neck, targeting pockets of stubborn fat. The procedure usually takes about 15 – 20 minutes. While some patients see a noticeable improvement in their chin and jawline after just one treatment session, others may need to schedule multiple appointments over the course of several weeks to attain their desired results.
What Are the Benefits of KYBELLA Treatments?
At Arijai Aesthetics, we believe everyone deserves to feel comfortable and confident in their own skin. That's why our team is proud to offer KYBELLA as a solution for women and men looking for a more sculpted chin. Some of the benefits of KYBELLA include:
- Fast appointments that are easy to fit into a busy schedule
- Noninvasive alternative to cosmetic surgery
- Quick outcomes that give you the jawline appearance you've always wanted
- Little to no downtime post-treatment

Am I a Candidate for KYBELLA?
Fullness under the chin can be one of the most frustrating areas to treat, especially when it doesn’t respond to diet and exercise. KYBELLA offers a nonsurgical way to reduce this fullness and improve jawline definition. Generally speaking, KYBELLA is best suited for patients whose primary concern is excess fat beneath the chin rather than loose skin, particularly those who have:
- Submental fullness
- Stubborn fat under the chin
- Desire for nonsurgical contouring
- Stable body weight
- Good skin elasticity
- Realistic expectations
Patients with significant skin laxity may benefit more from alternative treatments. Our team will evaluate your anatomy and goals to determine whether KYBELLA is the right option.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do KYBELLA results look natural?
Yes, KYBELLA results are known for looking very natural. The active ingredient targets and dissolves only fat cells, leaving the surrounding tissue unaffected. This allows for a smooth and gradual reduction of submental fat, resulting in a more defined chin and jawline. Our team takes great care in administering the injections precisely and strategically to ensure natural-looking outcomes.
How long do KYBELLA results last?
The best part about KYBELLA is that the fat cells will not return once they have been destroyed. This means you can enjoy long-lasting outcomes with proper maintenance and a healthy lifestyle in San Antonio, TX. However, it's important to note that weight fluctuations and other factors may impact your results over time.
How do I care for my chin after KYBELLA treatment?
After your KYBELLA treatment, it's normal to experience some mild swelling, redness, and tenderness in the treated area. This should subside within a few days. At Arijai Aesthetics, we offer specific post-treatment instructions to help minimize discomfort and promote optimal healing. In general, we recommend avoiding strenuous activities for the first 24 hours after treatment and applying an ice pack to reduce swelling.
