Non-Surgical Double Chin Reduction and Jawline Contouring
If you are exploring a double chin treatment, Hood River residents choose Kybella® as a non-invasive alternative to liposuction. Our physician-supervised team ensures your treatment is customized to your unique anatomy.
What Is Kybella®?
Kybella® is a prescription injectable treatment containing synthetic deoxycholic acid, a molecule naturally produced by the body to break down dietary fat. When injected underneath the chin, it targets and destroys fat cells.
Once eliminated, those fat cells can no longer store or accumulate fat. This makes it a long-term solution for patients seeking submental fat reduction without surgery. If you are seeking Kybella®, our medical team customizes your treatment plan to meet your contour goals.
