Because Kybella destroys fat cells entirely, and most people stop producing new fat cells in their mid-20s, the results of Kybella are permanent. It’s important to continue to maintain a healthy lifestyle to maintain your results, as gaining weight can cause surrounding fat cells to expand into the originally treated area.
Kybella in Toledo
Target Stubborn Fat
What's Kybella for?
Double Chin
Extra submental fat (double chin) happens to people of all ages and all sizes, it's more related to genetics than you think!
Fat Pockets
Places on the body besides the chin hold pockets of extra fat that don't respond to normal diet and exercise.
Because Sometimes Fat Just Won’t Burn
When it comes to tackling obstinate fat pockets that won’t budge—like the dreaded double chin or even bra-band fat—it can start to feel helpless. Fear not! At Blush Aesthetics, we’re proud to offer our patients a solution to these issues with Kybella. In Toledo, people know how important it is to trust their aesthetic provider, especially when it comes to advanced injections. Ready to rid yourself of a double chin or other annoying fat pockets?
The Science Behind Stubborn Fat
Some fat is resistant to diet and exercise—it’s not in your head. Every fat cell contains alpha-2 receptors that hinder fat-burning and beta-2 receptors that expedite the breakdown of fat cells. Some cells contain more alpha-2 receptors than others, due to uncontrollable factors like your hormones and genetics, causing your body to cling onto them despite your best efforts.
That’s where Kybella in Toledo comes in! Kybella metabolizes those stubborn cells for you, allowing your body to flush them out naturally.
What happens after Kybella injections?
Most people experience swelling, pain, numbness, redness, and areas of hardness in the treatment area after their Kybella injections. Swelling typically lasts a couple of weeks, but it’s totally normal if you’re still a little swollen after that! You shouldn’t be swollen to the point that you’re unable to immediately resume most normal activities after treatment.
Once It’s Gone, It’s Gone for Good
Once Kybella reaches stubborn fat cells, it gradually breaks down their protective membranes, eventually dissolving them completely. Just like when you burn fat through exercise, your lymphatic system then absorbs that waste and flushes it out of your system.
Fat cells do not regenerate, so once it’s dissolved, it’s gone. That being said, remaining fat cells can increase in size if you gain weight, in which case you’ll need to receive additional injections to achieve the same results.
How it Works
01. Consultation
A consultation is super important for getting to know you and your goals! We start with a health history, analysis of your skin and facial contours, and discussion of your current lifestyle.
02. Determine Treatment
From all of this information, we will recommend a treatment plan to get you from where you are to where you want to be. If you're a candidate for Kybella, we will determine a timeline for your Kybella series, and can get started as soon as you're ready!
03. Treatment
After marking off target areas, your injector uses an ultra-fine needle to place small amounts of Kybella in a small series of injections within the treatment area.
04. After-care
You'll need to avoid touching or massaging the injection area for a day or so after your Kybella injections.

Frequently Asked Questions About Kybella
Kybella creates slimmer contours by killing fat cells that the body will then flush away out of your system. It achieves this with a synthetic deoxycholic acid, which works with your body to break down fatty cells. The process typically takes about 4 to 8 weeks to work, and most people need 1 to 3 sessions to achieve their ideal results.
There is no one best age to get Kybella! We typically recommend waiting until you’re in your 20s to ensure your body is likely done creating new fat cells. Patients in their later 40s or older may get the most out of their treatment if they pair it with skin tightening.
Most patients agree that Kybella injections are not as comfortable as Botox or filler, and there may be a stinging sensation briefly after the treatment. Never fear! We have options to make sure you stay comfortable throughout treatment.
Kybella is safe and effective, and nearly anyone who’s in relatively good health could be a candidate for treatment.
Kybella is the first FDA-approved injectable of its kind, designed to permanently reduce submental fat. Powered by deoxycholic acid, a naturally produced bile acid that plays a key role in the metabolic process of breaking down fat, the formula dissolves stubborn fat cells and allows your body to remove them naturally.
At Blush Aesthetics, we use Kybella to dissolve fat deposits in areas such as the:
- Buttocks (“banana rolls”)
- Chin
- Inner knees
- Jawline
- Mons pubis (the area above the pubic region)
- Outer thighs
- Sides of the abdomen (“love handles”)
- Upper arms and armpits
Working with a skilled injector is key to safely achieving the best results. At Blush Aesthetics, our team of highly qualified skin specialists has spent years studying facial and body anatomy, so we can help you decide if Kybella is your best option during your consultation.
The best way to determine whether you’re an ideal candidate is to meet with one of Blush’s skin specialists for a consultation. That being said, Kybella is generally an excellent option for male and female patients of all ages struggling with localized pockets of stubborn fat, allowing patients to contour the appearance of their jawline without having to commit to the cost, risks, and downtime of surgery. If you’re at or near your ideal weight and struggling to get rid of a specific fat deposit, Kybella injections may be your best option.
However, Kybella is not suitable for individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Keep in mind that Kybella does not address skin laxity (sagging), but we offer a range of other therapies that do so without surgery.
While both body sculpting and Kybella in Toledo address stubborn fat, they do so differently. Our state-of-the-art body sculpting technologies are designed to treat larger areas, such as the abdomen and thighs, while Kybella targets more specific pockets of submental fat, such as a “double chin.”
Unlike Kybella, which is an injectable formula, body sculpting technologies are energy-based and work through advanced applicators. Both solutions offer noninvasive fat reduction, and many patients pair them to further their transformation. Blush Aesthetics’ highly trained specialists will help you determine your best solution during your consultation.
