Kybella at NPMD is designed for adults who want to improve the appearance of fullness beneath the chin through a physician-guided injectable treatment plan. In Encino, our team approaches Kybella conservatively because lower-face contouring only works well when we are honest about what is causing the concern, how much improvement is realistic, and whether an injectable approach is actually the best fit.
Some patients are bothered by submental fullness even when their weight is stable and their routine is consistent. Others are dealing with a profile concern that is really being driven by skin laxity, anatomy, or broader lower-face changes. Our job is to sort that out first so the treatment choice matches the problem instead of forcing one option onto every patient with a “double chin” concern.
Kybella is an injectable treatment used to improve the appearance and profile of moderate to severe fullness under the chin when submental fat is a meaningful part of the concern. It is not a general skin-tightening treatment and it is not the right answer for every neck or jawline issue. The strength of the consultation is deciding whether under-chin fullness is truly the problem we are treating.
Good candidates are adults with under-chin fullness who want to discuss whether an injectable option makes sense and understand that treatment is often staged rather than instant. Some Encino patients specifically ask about Kybella because they want a nonsurgical way to address a “double chin,” while others want help deciding whether the issue is actually fat, skin laxity, or broader lower-face balance.
At NPMD, candidacy is evaluated in the context of the full lower face and neck. In some patients, Agnes, broader contour planning, or structural support such as jawline filler may be more useful than Kybella alone. If Kybella is not the right tool, we say that clearly.
Your visit starts with an evaluation of the lower face, jawline, and neck so we can understand what is actually creating the contour concern. We review goals, prior treatment history, and how much change would feel worth the process. That matters because Kybella is usually best understood as a paced treatment plan rather than a one-visit transformation.
If Kybella is appropriate, we discuss treatment mapping, the expected recovery pattern, and how many sessions may be needed before the profile change is meaningful. We also explain when the better answer may be to pause, reassess, or use a different strategy instead of trying to force a result with repeated injections.
Patients should expect swelling and tenderness after Kybella, and for some people the early recovery can be the most noticeable part of the process. That is why timing, event planning, and realistic recovery expectations are part of the consultation. We want you to understand what normal recovery can look like before you commit.
Improvement typically happens over time rather than overnight, and some patients need a series to reach the level of contour change they want. We review how progress should be judged, when to reevaluate, and when another contouring approach may be more efficient for the outcome you want.
If you are considering Kybella in Encino and want a careful discussion about under-chin fullness, our team can help you decide whether Kybella is the right approach for your profile concerns and how it should fit into a broader lower-face contour plan.

The PRP therapy for my receding hairline has produced noticeable results that I honestly did not expect. After four sessions, my hair is visibly thicker and the thinning areas are filling in. The treatment itself was painless and the staff made me feel completely at ease throughout the process.

Between fundraising stress and constant travel, my body was breaking down. The comprehensive wellness assessment at NPMD revealed multiple nutrient deficiencies and cortisol imbalances. Their integrated approach — IV therapy, sleep optimization, and targeted supplements — helped me recover my baseline in about two months. Essential investment in my health.

Every recommendation comes with clear explanations of expected outcomes, risks, and alternatives. It is refreshing to find providers who prioritize patient education alongside excellent clinical care.

I have struggled with melasma for years and was told it was untreatable. The dermatology team at NPMD developed a careful treatment plan combining specific peels and medical-grade skincare that has significantly lightened my melasma patches. For the first time, I feel comfortable going without heavy foundation.

In my profession, first impressions matter. The chemical peel series I did at NPMD gave me the clear, glowing skin I had been trying to achieve with expensive skincare products for years. My provider was honest about what would work best and the results speak for themselves.
