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. Once those fat cells are gone, they’re gone for good—leaving behind a slimmer, more defined profile. 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.

This is my go to place for anything skin and beauty! Rachel is so knowledgeable and helpful, you will feel completely at ease in her care, highly recommend.
I see Mya and she is truly a master! She is knowledgeable in her craft and always walks me through what to expect. I had questions once after a service and she was prompt and detailed in reaching out with answers. Mya is warm, kind, patient, and I always look forward to seeing her. I highly recommend MD Cote, and Mya! The front desk coordinator Jessica is also a welcome and warm presence, always very sweet and helpful. Thanks to the whole team 💗
A few days before my wedding I had a Dermaplane and DiamondGlow facial by Mya at MD Cote. I had seen her before and she’s so sweet and nice. She described what would be happening with each step showed me the things she would be using and was just very informative. My skin literally had a glow immediately after and lasted for like a week, I swear. My skin was super glowy on my wedding day and my makeup artist even said my skin looked amazing and the makeup went on smooth. Mya was so welcoming from the moment I saw her, she’s knowledgeable, sweet, caring and really wanted to make sure I was comfortable and relaxed. I will be back to get more work done for sure, but I highly recommend going to MD Cote but more so recommend seeing Mya! 🤍 With the DiamondGlow, there is no downtime, if you’re worried about that. I’d just book the appointment if you have an important event and you want that extra glow, or if you just need some good self care. Sadly, I didn’t take any photos before and after but here is a photo to show how smooth and glowy my skin was on the big day! I owe it to Mya!!
I’m so glad I found Rachel! She came highly recommended by a close friend, and I couldn’t be happier that I took the leap. I’ve always wanted to try Botox, but I was honestly nervous. What I love most about Rachel is that her approach is all about enhancing your natural features with subtle, beautiful results. Her philosophy is to start slow, stay minimal, and build from a natural baseline if you choose to over time. That instantly put me at ease. Not only is her medical spa absolutely adorable, but Rachel has the best personality. She’s incredibly talented, has such an artistic eye, and is truly amazing at what she does. I highly recommend her!
I just recently started getting Botox this year. I have been to other places, but I like this place the best. Everyone is super knowledgeable and all of the staff is really kind and personable. I enjoy going in to get my Botox. I definitely recommend going to Md Cote !
I see Mya for glow facials and laser hair removal. She’s so knowledgable with skincare and I always leave there relaxed after a facial! She makes me feel so comfortable and cared for with the laser hair removal! She’s an amazing cheerleader when I’m feeling nervous. Thank you Mya for being so fantastic!! 💕
Be careful when you’re planning to get a service here because their prices are always higher than other places with similar experience and products.
I have been seeing Rachel for several years now. My experience is not only pleasant, it's friendly. She really knows what she's doing and makes me as comfortable as possible. I leave feeling confident that I will be looking my best! Highly recommend!
I've had such a lovely experience with the team at MD Cote - I've seen Lyndsey and Rachel, and they're both warm, considerate, knowledgable and professional. They've both taken time to answer all my questions, and have been really gentle in their approach. They've really gone above and beyond on all things, including making my life easier with scheduling. Highly recommend!
I had my first appointment at Md Cote yesterday with Rachel after being referred to her by a couple of people, and my experience was amazing from the moment I walked in. First off, the waiting room is so cute I loved the decor! Michelle at the front desk was awesome and very helpful during both check-in and check-out. Rachel was also amazing. She took the time to sit down with me, listen, and make sure we were on the same page before starting. I was super nervous, but she made me feel so comfortable and at ease throughout the appointment. I’m already looking forward to coming back!
Very professional. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about treatments.
Rachel is the best! She is knowledgeable and mindful of pain management and answering all of my questions. The results were fantastic as I look like me just the best version of me.
I’ve been seeing Mya for a year now for laser hair removal and I seriously love her. She’s so skilled and I always feel safe when she is doing my laser treatments.
I am thrilled with my HALO treatment with Lyndsey! one month later, the fine lines around my mouth are significantly reduced, and my skin feels plumper. The 'Halo glow' is real Thank you so much Lyndsey!!!
