Kybella® Body Contouring

Procedure:
30–60 minutes
Recovery:
Mild swelling, tenderness, or redness for 3–7 days

Kybella® Body Contouring offers a non-surgical solution for reducing small, stubborn areas of body fat that don’t respond to healthy diet and exercise. At Elysium Chicago Aesthetics + Longevity, our expert injectors use Kybella®—an injectable form of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule that breaks down and absorbs dietary fat—to target localized fat deposits in areas beyond the chin.

Patients throughout Chicago, River North, and Downtown Chicago choose Kybella® for its ability to contour and refine the body without surgery or downtime.

Areas We Treat With Kybella® Body Contouring

  • Upper arms (“bra fat” area)
  • Lower abdomen
  • Flanks or “love handles”
  • Back or bra line area
  • Inner or outer thighs
  • Knees or small pockets of resistant fat

Overview

What is Kybella® Body Contouring?

Kybella® is an injectable treatment that uses a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a bile acid naturally produced by the body to break down fat. When carefully injected into targeted areas, it destroys the fat cell membranes. The body then naturally metabolizes and removes the treated fat cells through the lymphatic system, resulting in a more sculpted and defined contour.

While Kybella® is FDA-approved for use under the chin, experienced injectors at Elysium Chicago can safely apply its fat-dissolving properties to small areas of the body where localized fat is difficult to eliminate through exercise alone.

Kybella® Body Contouring Treatment Benefits

  • Reduces stubborn fat without surgery or anesthesia
  • Targets small, localized fat deposits
  • Stimulates gradual, natural body contouring
  • Minimal downtime with long-lasting results
  • Safe, clinically proven active ingredient (deoxycholic acid)
  • Can be customized for multiple body areas
  • Once fat cells are destroyed, they do not return

Treatment

What You Can Expect

Private
Consultation

Your provider will evaluate the areas of concern, discuss your goals, and determine whether Kybella® Body Contouring is the right approach for your treatment plan.

Expert
Care

Using a fine needle, Kybella® is injected strategically into small areas of unwanted fat. The number of injections depends on the treatment area size. Most sessions take 30–60 minutes and are performed in-office.

Gradual
Results

Mild redness or swelling is common for several days. As the body metabolizes destroyed fat cells, the treated area becomes smoother and more contoured over 4–6 weeks.
