Kybella® in Texarkana, TX
Double Chin Fat Reduction
At LoneStar Aesthetics & Wellness, we offer Kybella®, the only FDA-approved injectable treatment that permanently reduces submental fullness, more commonly known as a “double chin.”
Kybella® employs a pharmaceutical-grade formulation of deoxycholic acid, replicating the body’s inherent fat-metabolizing molecule. When injected beneath the chin, it destroys unwanted fat cells, which are naturally eradicated by the body. Once those fat cells are gone, they are gone for good.
Benefits of Kybella®
- Permanently reduces fat under the chin.
- Defines and contours the jawline.
- Non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment.
- Little to no downtime compared to liposuction.
- Boosts confidence with a slimmer, more balanced profile.
Common Treatment Area
Submental fullness ("double chin")
The submental fat deposit that typically resists reduction through lifestyle modifications.
What to Expect During Treatment
Consultation
We’ll evaluate your chin and jawline to determine if Kybella® is right for you.
Treatment
A series of small injections is placed under the chin to target fat cells.
Aftercare
Mild swelling, redness, or tenderness is standard and typically resolves within a week.
Results
Most patients see noticeable improvement after 2–4 treatments spaced about a month apart, with full results visible once the treatment series is complete.
How Long Do Results Last?
Once fat cells are eliminated, they won’t return, making your results permanent. Continuing healthy habits will help you maintain these long-term benefits.

Who is a good candidate for Kybella®?
A good candidate for Kybella® is an adult having moderate to severe submental fullness, famously known as double chin. Ideal candidates are in good health, have good skin elasticity, and are looking for a non-invasive solution to reduce chin fat.
When will I see the results of Kybella®?
You can expect visible results after 2-4 treatment sessions, with each session spaced at least one month apart. Some patients may see results sooner, while others require added sessions to achieve their desired outcome.
How long do results of Kybella® last?
The results from Kybella® are permanent because the treatment eliminates the fat cells in the targeted area. Once these cells are eliminated, they do not return.
Is there any downtime or side effects with Kybella®?
There is minimal downtime associated with Kybella®. Common side effects may include bruising, pain, inflammation, swelling, and numbness at the injection site. These side effects are usually temporary and resolve on their own.
What should I do before and after Kybella® treatment?
Before the treatment, avoid medications and supplements that can aggravate bruising, such as aspirin and ibuprofen. After the treatment, follow your provider’s post-care instructions, which includes applying ice packs to reduce swelling and avoiding strenuous activities for a few days.
What can I expect during Kybella® treatment?
Your provider will cleanse the area and may apply a numbing cream to reduce discomfort. Kybella® will be injected into the targeted fat under your chin using a series of small injections. The procedure usually takes 15-20 minutes, and you can return to your daily activities immediately after.
