KYBELLA Double Chin Removal in La Jolla & San Diego
Define Your Jawline. Eliminate Stubborn Fat—Permanently.
Even with a healthy lifestyle, the submental area (beneath the chin) can be resistant to diet and exercise. At Starlite Aesthetics, we offer KYBELLA—an FDA-approved injectable solution specifically designed to dissolve submental fat and redefine your lower face. The result is a sharper, more sculpted profile without surgery or extended downtime.
Led by Michelle Langston, FNP-BC, our approach to fat dissolving with KYBELLA is rooted in precision, safety, and aesthetic balance. Clients from La Jolla, Del Mar, Carmel Valley, Encinitas, Rancho Santa Fe, and the greater San Diego region trust our medspa for advanced, non-invasive contouring solutions.

What Is KYBELLA?
KYBELLA is a prescription injectable composed of synthetic deoxycholic acid—a naturally occurring molecule in the body that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected beneath the chin, KYBELLA destroys targeted fat cells, which are then metabolized and eliminated by your body over time.
Once those cells are gone, they cannot return. This makes KYBELLA a permanent solution for reducing the appearance of a double chin or soft jawline caused by localized fat.
Benefits of KYBELLA
- Non-surgical, in-office fat reduction
- Permanent removal of treated fat cells
- Improves chin, jawline, and neck definition
- Minimal downtime with no general anesthesia
- Tailored to your facial structure for a natural result
- Complements other aesthetic procedures
Many clients choose to pair KYBELLA with treatments like Facial Balancing, Dermal Fillers, or PDO Thread Non-Surgical Facelift to enhance structure and proportion across the entire lower face.
Who Is an Ideal Candidate?
KYBELLA may be right for you if you:
- Struggle with a double chin that does not improve with diet or exercise
- Desire a more sculpted, contoured lower face
- Prefer a non-surgical solution to liposuction
- Have good skin elasticity but visible submental fullness
- Are seeking permanent fat reduction with a minimal recovery period
During your consultation, Michelle will assess your facial anatomy, skin condition, and goals to ensure that KYBELLA is the appropriate fit or if a combination approach will deliver the most natural results.
What to Expect
- Treatment Time: 30 minutes
- Number of Sessions: Typically 2–4 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart
- Downtime: Mild swelling and tenderness for a few days
- Results Timeline: Visible improvement begins after the first session, with full results appearing over 8–12 weeks
- Longevity: Permanent fat cell removal; no maintenance injections required once optimal contour is reached
To further support your outcome, Michelle may recommend incorporating Medical Grade Skin Care or RF Skin Rejuvenation to tighten surrounding skin and promote even texture.

How much does KYBELLA cost?
KYBELLA is priced per vial, and most clients need more than one vial per session. We’ll map out your full plan and pricing at your consultation.
How many KYBELLA sessions will I need?
Most clients need two to four sessions spaced about four to six weeks apart, depending on the amount of submental fullness and your goals.
Is KYBELLA permanent?
Yes. Once the treated fat cells are destroyed and cleared by the body, they don’t return — so results are long-lasting at a stable weight.
KYBELLA vs. CoolSculpting — which is better for a double chin?
KYBELLA dissolves fat with a series of injections, while CoolSculpting freezes it. KYBELLA is often preferred for smaller, precise areas like under the chin. Michelle can advise which suits your anatomy.
Is there downtime with KYBELLA?
Expect some swelling under the chin for a few days after each session — this is normal and part of how the treatment works.
