Lipo-dissolving injections use deoxycholic acid (the active ingredient in Kybella®) or phosphatidylcholine/deoxycholic acid (PCDC) to permanently destroy fat cells in targeted areas. Once the fat cells are destroyed, they cannot regenerate—making this a long-lasting, non-surgical fat reduction solution. The FDA has approved deoxycholic acid specifically for submental (double chin) fat, and PCDC formulations are used off-label for various body areas.
Best for adults at or near a healthy weight with localized fat — not a weight-loss treatment. Not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Kybella® is FDA-approved for fat under the chin; sessions are spaced at least a month apart, up to 6 in total. Other areas use PCDC.
For fat that resists diet and exercise — no surgery, no general anesthesia.
Treated fat cells are destroyed and can’t store fat again.
