What to do about a double chin in Orlando? In the warm Florida weather, scarves and turtlenecks are barely nonexistent, so hiding it is not an option. However, getting rid of it is, thanks to a first-of-its-kind non-surgical injectable treatment specifically designed to eliminate the excess fat causing it: Kybella. At Gearity Wellness Center, located in Orlando, Florida, our board-certified FNP-BC offers Kybella shots for women—and men—living in the area and wanting to elevate their looks.
Why Do I Have a Double Chin?
If you have some extra fullness beneath your chin, you have submental fullness, also called a “double chin”. Many factors play a role in developing this extra fat, including weight gain, genetics, and age (due to the reduction in collagen production). What’s curious about it is that it does not go away with dieting and exercise, resulting in a lowered self-esteem and frustration.
Can I Make a Double Chin Go Away?
In short: yes. And in a non-surgical, fast, and long-lasting way. Not that long ago, the only solutions for double chins were surgical: liposuction and neck lifts. However, these procedures have proven to be excessive at times due to the fact that some people’s skin elasticity made it unnecessary to remove skin along with the fat. Nowadays, though, a new treatment has made the process much less complicated and accessible to all: an injection that eliminates the fat called Kybella.
Kybella was approved as the first and only non-surgical, injectable treatment for submental fullness, commonly known as a “double chin” in 2015.
Do I Need to See a Double Chin Specialist in Orlando, Florida?
If you want to address your excess neck fat in a non-surgical way and live around the Lake Nona area in Orlando, Florida, book a consultation with your trusted provider at Gearity Wellness Center. You need a practitioner that is specifically trained to administer Kybella, whom you will find at our center.
How Can I Eliminate My Double Chin With Kybella?
FDA-approved, this shot contains a synthetic version of deoxycholic acid, a naturally-generated substance in your body that helps break down fat. When injected into the area, that is precisely what it does, “melting” the extra chin fat away and revealing a more defined contour. Forever. Once the fat cells are gone, they cannot regenerate or come back.

How Does It Work?
Before you go in for your first session, you will have a consultation with our Kybella-trained, board-certified nurse practitioner Jason Azar. Together, depending on your skin’s characteristics, your goals, and the amount of fat to be removed, you will decide on how many treatments you will need (which may vary along the way).
During the session, he will administer the shot through a series of small injections under your chin. Each session takes just about 15-20 minutes, and while you might experience some mild swelling or bruising, these side effects are temporary and typically resolve within a few days.
Does It Have Added Benefits?
Kybella:
- Is minimally-invasive.
- Does not hurt—pain is completely tolerable.
- Takes very little time
- Requires little to no downtime
- Offers visible results
- Results are permanent
In case you are wondering, yes. You can complement Kybella with Botox or dermal fillers for a more comprehensive look. The best part is that you can combine them in one session to address multiple concerns at once.
How Much Does Kybella Cost in Orlando?
The number of sessions will determine the final cost of the treatment. As Kybella is completely customized to each patient’s needs, the cost will vary accordingly. At Gearity Wellness Center, located in Lake Nona, Orlando, we offer financing opportunities through the Allē Payment plan.
