What is
Kybella®?
Get Kybella injections in Chicago as a solution to stubborn fat under your chin. If you have struggled with a double chin and no amount of exercise and dieting has helped, then this may be the ideal time to try Kybella. If surgery sounds too invasive, then it’s time to consider this effective minimally invasive option.
Many people feel self-conscious about the appearance of a “double chin.” This cosmetic concern can be caused by loose tissue and/or excess fatty tissue in the upper neck, creating a less defined profile. While a double chin has traditionally been corrected with liposuction or a neck lift, MetropolitanMD now offers the non-surgical solution known as KYBELLA™, which treats excess fat through special injectable treatments.
This innovative procedure is the first of its kind to be FDA-approved for the reduction of submental fullness (or excess fat under the chin). Its active ingredient–deoxycholic acid, which occurs naturally in the body–breaks down fat when injected into the trouble area under the chin. As this unwanted tissue gradually depletes and is removed via metabolic processes, patients can begin to see a more desirable neck and chin contour.

Kybella®
Consultation Process
A physical examination of your chin and neck will be performed during your consultation. The firmness of your skin will be evaluated, as well as the amount of adipose tissue in the submental region (chin). Your medical history will be reviewed, including your current medications and any underlying illnesses.
A tailored treatment plan will be developed to achieve the best results. To track your progress, photographs may be taken for before-and-after comparison. If you have any questions, feel free to ask and we will be happy to answer them.
What to Expect
During Your Kybella Treatment
While a single Kybella treatment can provide noticeable results, multiple treatments are typically required. Most patients require a series of two to four sessions to reach their optimal results. Each treatment is typically scheduled around two or so weeks apart in order to allow the area to heal between treatments. A personalized treatment plan will be created during the consultation following evaluation of the patient’s physical needs and cosmetic goals.
