I'm 27 years old, 5"2 and 110lbs. I'm a small, skinny girl but I find that I have a bit of fat under my chin that has always bothered me. It's not quite a double chin but it's certainly unflattering from some angles. Can Kybella be done on someone who is rather skinny and doesn't quite have a double chin but just some unflattering fat down there?
Answer: Kybella for Skinny People You don't have to have an actual double chin to benefit from Kybella. Just a small amount of fat can be unflattering and is easily removed with one or two treatments of Kybella's deoxycholic acid – a natural substance found in human bile. The procedure takes less than 5 minutes in most cases. You will have some swelling afterward and it may take up to a month or more to appreciate your results, but my patients have been thrilled with the difference Kybella makes to their profiles. Please consult a board-certified dermatologist to find out if you are a candidate for Kybella.

Answer: Kybella for thin patient? Kybella is useful for anyone who has excess fat under the chin that is above the platysma muscle. There are many overall healthy patients ( men and women) that are at an appropriate weight who are still bothered by some extra fat under their chin. Your best bet is a visit with a board certified plastic surgeon who understands the anatomy of the neck and can examine you and help determine whether you are a good candidate.

Answer: Kybella for small area Yes, you are likely an ideal candidate for Kybella. Many people have a genetic fullness under the chin but are otherwise thin. Since you have a small, focal area of fat deposition you would likely require less Kybella per treatment, less swelling, and fewer treatments. I have had very nice results treating small areas under the chin with Kybella. Please consult a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon who is a trained Kybella injector. Best wishes.
