Kybella® in Irvine, California
Kybella is an injectable treatment that targets and dissolves the fat responsible for a double chin—no surgery required. Ideal for adults bothered by submental fullness, Kybella gradually contours the jawline for a slimmer, more defined profile. Treatments are quick, recovery is minimal, and results are long-lasting because the treated fat cells are permanently destroyed.

What is Kybella?
Kybella is the first and only injectable treatment specifically designed to reduce submental fat—the pocket of fullness beneath the chin commonly called a double chin. The active ingredient, deoxycholic acid, is a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When carefully injected into the submental area, Kybella destroys unwanted fat cells. Your body then flushes the cellular debris through natural metabolic processes, and the treated fat cells cannot return. Most patients see optimal improvements after a personalized series of treatments spaced four to six weeks apart.
Kybella offers a minimally invasive alternative to surgical neck contouring procedures. Because the fat reduction happens gradually, the overlying skin has time to retract, helping maintain a smooth, firm neck contour without surgical lifting or liposuction.
Why Choose South Coast Plastic Surgery for Your Kybella?
If you're considering Kybella, South Coast Plastic Surgery is here to guide you through every step. Dr. Mark Song and our highly trained aesthetic nurse injectors will work closely with you to create a personalized plan that addresses your concerns and helps you achieve a slimmer, more defined profile.
Non-Surgical Double-Chin Reduction
Kybella eliminates unwanted submental fullness without incisions, stitches, or anesthesia recovery. You can return to most normal activities quickly, avoiding the downtime associated with liposuction.
Permanent Fat Cell Destruction
Once Kybella destroys the targeted fat cells, they cannot regenerate. As long as your weight remains stable, your new jawline contour is expected to last for years.
Gradual, Natural-Looking Improvement
Because fat reduction occurs over several weeks, the transformation appears organic. Friends and family notice a fresher look without obvious signs of having had a procedure.
Enhanced Facial Harmony and Confidence
A slimmer neck and sharper jawline can improve overall facial balance, allowing you to feel more confident in photos, video calls, and everyday interactions.
Quick Treatment Sessions
Most appointments take less than 30 minutes—ideal for busy professionals and parents who want effective results without sacrificing their schedules.
Skin Tightening as Fat Dissolves
As fat cells are gradually removed, the overlying skin often tightens, reducing the risk of loose skin and supporting a smoother profile.
