Kybella Injections

Kybella® is the only FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to permanently reduce submental fullness, commonly known as a “double chin.” Using a naturally occurring molecule called deoxycholic acid, Kybella works to break down and absorb unwanted fat cells under the chin.

With little downtime and lasting results, Kybella is a confidence-boosting solution for anyone ready to love their jawline again.

HOW KYBELLA WORKS

Kybella® is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that permanently eliminates unwanted fat under the chin and in small, stubborn areas. Its active ingredient, deoxycholic acid, is a molecule that naturally occurs in the body and helps break down dietary fat. When injected into targeted areas, Kybella destroys fat cells, which are then naturally metabolized and removed by the body. Once those fat cells are gone, they can’t return—leaving behind a slimmer, more defined profile with lasting results.

I love this place! Their people are amazing, answering questions, making suggestions, making you feel comfortable and relaxed. They offer amazing products that work and their services are tops! They don’t try to sell you on services you don’t need. In fact, I had a consultation for a particular service and the technician explained why it was not necessary and would not give me the results I was looking for. Instead she suggested a product that could help. Wow! A place that doesn’t try to take you money. The other services I really enjoy and see results are the micro needling , peal, laser, and Botox. The micro needling vanished a dark spot on my face after one treatment. Obviously results will vary but for me it only took one but I had a second treatment done anyway 😊Amazing! The laser treatments take time obviously, but I noticed a difference in some areas after the first. Can’t wait to see the final results. The Botox really helps with my headaches and of course fine lines. 😉 They also offer discounts thru Alli and have promotions throughout the year. Another plus!

Rachel is amazing and the absolute best. She has great recommendations, awesome bedside manner. She only recommends what will be the best for the client and I always trust her opinion and feel safe in her hands. The only improvement I wish- the waiting room is SO BRIGHT now 😩 I liked it before. The new super light pink paint and super bright LED’s kill the vibe.

This clinic is truly wonderful. I’ve had the pleasure of working with Mya, Jenna, Lyndsey, Julia, and Dr. Cote, and they take the time to understand your goals, walk you through every option, and make sure you feel confident in your decisions. Their execution is so seamless and precise it almost feels unreal. Jessica and Michell are equally amazing—always greeting you with genuine warmth and making sure you feel supported every step of the way. The entire team is not only highly professional, but also makes you feel like you’re among friends. I couldn’t recommend them more!

I just received the diamond glow facial from MD cote. It was my first facial. I loved the experience. I felt pampered as soon as I walked in the office. Everyone is so warm and professional. My esthetician listened to my skin concerns and recommended that we start with hydration and work our way up to microdermabrasion and different serums in the future because it was my first. I appreciated the questionnaire that asked about my skin tone and sun sensitivity. Jenna was warm, friendly and had a natural flow of conversation. I felt very comfortable with her. My skin looked amazing afterwards and my pores were so clear! (she even showed me all the gunk that came out at the end haha) highly recommend getting your facials here.

I've been coming here for a few years now. Started with Botox then other services like facials and fillers. The entire team is always professional, patient and courteous. They all work together like a well oiled machine. I've been pleased with EVERYTHING. The establishment is top-notch. It's not the highest but not the lowest but reasonable. Scheduling is easy.Happy customer so far. The main thing i have been pleased with over the years is... 1. They dont do hard up sells. 2. Dr. Vote and the staff listen. I had photos of what I like and dont like and it was 100% what i wanted. Its your face. Its important to be heard. I would highly recommend this place. You won't be disappointed.

I am extremely happy with the services I received. I was listened to and given all the information on each procedure I was interested in. I like how Dr. Cote' asked me what I wanted improved, she didn't tell me what I needed. Lyndsey is also great. She explained what real results I could see and what to expect. They also let you know the cost of each procedure ahead of time. All the staff members are professional and welcoming.

Kybella® is the only FDA-approved injectable treatment that permanently destroys fat cells under the chin and in small, stubborn areas, helping create a slimmer, more defined profile.

The active ingredient in Kybella is deoxycholic acid, a molecule that naturally occurs in the body and helps break down fat. When injected into targeted areas, it destroys fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body.

Kybella is FDA-approved for submental fullness (the “double chin”), but it is also commonly used off-label for areas.
Double chin (submental fullness) – the most popular treatment area for a slimmer jawline

Jawline – enhances contour and definition

Jowls – reduces small pockets of fat for a smoother profile

Under the chin & upper neck – refines and balances facial proportions

Most patients need 2–4 treatments spaced about 6–8 weeks apart for optimal results. The exact number depends on the amount of fat and your desired contour.

Results are permanent. Once fat cells are destroyed, they cannot regenerate—making Kybella a long-lasting solution when paired with a healthy lifestyle.

Yes. Kybella is FDA-approved and has been studied extensively. When performed by our top 1% nationwide injectors at MD Cote, it is a safe and effective treatment.

It’s normal to experience swelling, redness, or tenderness in the treated area, especially in the first few days. These effects subside as your body processes the fat cells.

Kybella is ideal for patients with stubborn fat under the chin or along the jawline that doesn’t improve with diet and exercise. A consultation at MD Cote helps determine if it’s the right treatment for you.

Kybella offers a non-surgical alternative to liposuction for small, localized fat pockets. However, patients with larger amounts of fat may benefit more from surgical options.

Yes! Many patients at MD Cote pair Kybella with treatments like CoolSculpting, dermal fillers, Botox®, or Skinvive for full facial contouring and rejuvenation.
