If excess submental fat (sometimes called a “double chin”) is your cosmetic concern, both CoolSculpting and Kybella are excellent options. While CoolSculpting freezes fat to eliminate it, Kybella is an injectable that uses deoxycholic acid to break down fat cells. Each typically requires multiple treatments and provides lasting results if you stay near the weight you were at during your initial appointment.
If you’re sensitive to cold, you might prefer Kybella to CoolSculpting. However, CoolSculpting may be a better fit if you want to sculpt areas surrounding your submental fat as well as eliminate your double chin.
