Improve Your Profile
At Rosewater Aesthetics, Kybella® is used as a precise, non-surgical solution to reduce unwanted fat and enhance natural facial definition.
Most commonly used to treat fullness beneath the chin, Kybella works beneath the surface to permanently break down fat cells, creating a more sculpted, contoured appearance over time.
This is not about quick fixes. It’s about intentional, lasting change.
What is Kybella?®
Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to dissolve fat cells in targeted areas. It is made of synthetic deoxycholic acid—a molecule naturally found in the body that helps break down dietary fat.
Once injected, Kybella works to:
Break down fat cell membranes
Allow the body to naturally eliminate the destroyed cells
Gradually improve contour and definition
Once those fat cells are gone, they do not return.
What areas can Kybella treat?
While Kybella is best known for treating submental fullness (“double chin”), it can also be used in other small, targeted areas.
Common treatment areas include:
Under the chin (submental fullness)
Jawline contouring
Bra bulge or small body areas (case-dependent)
At Rosewater Aesthetics, we carefully assess whether Kybella is the best option—or if another treatment would provide a more refined result.
