Contact UsWhat is KYBELLA?
KYBELLA is an injectable made from deoxycholic acid. It is used as a treatment to improve one’s profile and overall appearance of moderate to severe fat below the chin (submental fat or double chin). KYBELLA is given as a series of injections under the chin. That is the only location the FDA has approved for the use of KYBELLA.
KYBELLA is an injectable treatment Dr. Keamy performs to improve one’s profile and overall appearance of moderate to severe fat below the chin.
It is the synthetic form of a natural substance our body makes to help to break down and absorb fat. An injectable, KYBELLA is designed to reduce the fat contributing a double chin.
This elite service is available at our locations in Westborough, MA, Salem, MA, and Naples, FL.
What Are The Benefits Of KYBELLA?
There are many benefits to KYBELLA, including:
- Reduced appearance of a double chin
- No downtime after treatments
- Less associated risks than with an invasive surgical procedure
- Long-lasting results
- Customized treatment plans
What Can I Expect After KYBELLA?
KYBELLA doesn't require anesthesia, so you are allowed to leave our office when you feel ready to return to your usual routine. You may have temporary swelling, numbness, or bruising beneath your chin, but this shouldn't last longer than 2 – 3 days. Contact Keamy Cosmetic Centre right away if you are feeling any unusual symptoms, like facial muscle weakness, difficulty swallowing, or if your facial expressions are uneven. While the fat cells that are destroyed do not regenerate, the cells left over can get larger, so you need to keep a steady weight after your KYBELLA treatments to prevent new pockets of fat from developing. Ideal results after this procedure leave your neck looking sleeker and tighter, and your profile will be more defined.

KYBELLA Side Effects
There is a potential for some serious side effects with KYBELLA. They are rare, but they include nerve injury in the jaw that can create an uneven smile, trouble swallowing, and some weakness in the surrounding facial muscles. In clinical studies, these side effects are not long-term but they do not resolve immediately.
Most common side effects include:
- Numbness
- Swelling
- Redness
- Bruising
- Residual pain
- Areas of hardness in the treatment area
The above side effects are similar to those from various dermal fillers. Dr. Keamy can discuss possible side effects with you prior to treatment.
Keamy Cosmetic Reviews
Highly recommend this Doctor - I have always hesitated doing Kybella due to the press about pain, swelling and downtime. This experience was amazing, very little pain and swelling for only two days with no bruising. In 3 weeks already see a difference. Highly recommend her
Love my results! - I saw Dr. Keamy today in her Salem office. I had a great experience! She is easy to talk with and had great suggestions. Today I had injections in my cheeks and some Botox and I love the results already! Can’t wait to see her again for Kybella.

Get Rid of a Double Chin with KYBELLA
Everyone likes to think it’s the other guy or gal who has the double chin. But reality says otherwise — as we get older, most of us tend to accumulate some fat under our collective chins. The clinical term for this is submental fullness.
Up until 2015, there wasn’t anything you could do about your double chin except have surgery.
But that all changed in April 2015 when the FDA approved KYBELLA for treating double chins. KYBELLA is a prescription brand name for an injectable product formulated with deoxycholic acid that dramatically tightens and improves the profile of those with a double chin. Dr. Keamy now provides KYBELLA for her patients.

Am I a good candidate for Kybella?
What causes a double chin?
Submental fullness or a “double chin” can be caused by:
- Genetics
- Weight gain
- Aging
In some cases, no matter your diet or exercise, the unwanted fullness beneath the chin may not go away, and could make you appear older or heavier than you really are. This is when Kybella may be a perfect fit for you. Dr. Keamy evaluates each patient on an individual basis to make sure that you achieve optimal results.
