Target and Reduce Submental Fullness—No Surgery, Low Downtime
Kybella in Honolulu
Kybella is the first and only FDA-approved injectable designed to target and gradually reduce fat under the chin—also known as submental fullness. At Beachside Aesthetics and Wellness in Honolulu, we use Kybella to help clients define their jawline, smooth their profile, and gain confidence in a treatment that’s quick, non-surgical, and performed with precision.
Kybella’s active ingredient—synthetic deoxycholic acid—is a naturally occurring molecule that helps break down and absorb dietary fat. Once injected, it works beneath the surface to destroy fat cells in the treated area. Those cells are then naturally eliminated by the body, and results are considered permanent once the desired aesthetic is reached.
What to Expect:
Before Treatment:
We’ll review your medical history and aesthetic goals. No numbing is required, but we can apply it for comfort. We’ll mark the area and apply a small grid for precise injection mapping.
During Treatment:
The Kybella solution is injected into targeted fat under the chin using a fine needle. The treatment takes 15–20 minutes.
After Treatment:
Expect swelling and tenderness for a few days (sometimes up to a week). Swelling is a sign the product is working. Most clients return to normal activity quickly but may want to avoid major events right after.
Results Timeline:
Gradual fat reduction becomes visible in 4–6 weeks, with most clients seeing optimal results after 2–4 sessions, spaced about a month apart.
