Fat Dissolving Injections
Injectable contouring for small pockets of fat that have not changed with diet and exercise.

About fat dissolving injections
Some fullness is a weight problem. The fullness under the chin is often a small pocket that diet and exercise never quite changed. Fat-dissolving injections at Caleyo are for that second situation. They’re for contour, not for weight loss. Kybella® is offered for the area under the chin and along the jawline.
Injections elsewhere on the body are discussed too, and the limit is plain. Use outside the under-chin area is off-label, and it’s considered only with medical supervision. That isn’t a detail to discover once you’re in the chair.
Most plans are a series, with visits spaced several weeks apart. Swelling and tenderness are expected for days afterward, and the area can look fuller before it looks smaller. Visible change is discussed over several weeks, as the body clears treated fat cells. Destroyed fat cells don’t return. New fat can if your weight changes. None of this replaces medical weight care.
Who it’s for
A fit is a clinical decision.
You’re likely bothered by a pocket you can point to, often under the chin, that stayed while the rest of you changed. You’re not chasing a plan to drop a large amount of weight, and you can live with swelling that makes the treated area look worse on the way to looking better.
You might also ask whether a small pocket on the body could be injected. That question is medical. Off-label use needs supervision, and it may not be appropriate. If the real aim is weight, say so at the start. A chin injection can’t cover a metabolic goal.
What it can support
Benefits, without a promise.
Treatment areas
Kybella® under the chin and jaw
Kybella® is offered for the pocket under the chin and along the jawline. The target is small and stubborn. It isn’t a way to slim an entire face, and it isn’t a method for losing weight.
Body areas only with supervision
Use outside the under-chin area is off-label. It’s considered only with medical supervision, and only when the pocket itself is the right kind of problem. Asking for an area isn’t the same thing as having a plan for it.
Several visits, weeks apart
A single shot is rarely the whole story. Visits are spaced several weeks apart so swelling from one session can settle before the next, and so the contour is built rather than guessed in an afternoon.
Cells that stay gone
Destroyed fat cells don’t return. That isn’t permission to ignore weight afterward. New fat can form if weight changes, and the injections don’t stand in for medical weight care.
Real results
Under the chin, across three treatments.
What to expect
Consultation, treatment, and aftercare.
- 01
A pocket, judged against the scale
Consultation decides whether the pocket is a candidate, starting with under the chin and the jawline. If you’re hoping to lose weight, the conversation turns toward medical weight care instead. Off-label body use comes up only with supervision, and only when the area fits.
- 02
Weeks between the injections
Treatment day is one visit in a series. The agreed area is injected. Expect swelling and tenderness for days, and don’t place this in a week when you can’t be seen looking swollen or when you need a sharp jawline for an event.
- 03
While swelling leaves and cells clear
Visible change is discussed over several weeks, as the body clears the fat cells that were treated. Aftercare is mostly time, tenderness, and a weight steady enough that new fat doesn’t refill the area. Destroyed cells don’t come back. The treatment still isn’t weight loss.
How it fits
Part of a root-cause plan.
A pocket under the chin can be local and still sit inside a larger story about weight. If weight has been climbing, or if you’re in the middle of changing it, dissolving one small area won’t finish that work. Destroyed fat cells don’t return, but new fat can appear when weight changes. Root-cause care means refusing to pretend a contour injection is a metabolism.
Medical supervision covers any off-label use on the body and any real concern about weight. Nutrition belongs in that conversation because our team includes a registered dietitian, not because a handout can replace it. The aesthetic question is separate: once the swelling is gone, would the chin and jawline actually look better. Those answers don’t have to match.
No. Kybella® and other fat-dissolving injections are for small pockets of fat. Medical weight care is its own plan, and these injections don’t replace it.
Under the chin and along the jawline. Whether your pocket is a fit for injection is decided in consultation. A photo isn’t the whole exam.
Sometimes, and only with medical supervision. Use outside the under-chin area is off-label. A request is declined when the area, or the goal behind it, isn’t appropriate.
Swelling and tenderness are expected for days, and the area often looks fuller first. Most plans are a series spaced several weeks apart. Visible change is discussed over several weeks as treated fat cells clear.
Destroyed fat cells don’t return. New fat can if your weight changes. Keeping the contour depends partly on what happens with weight afterward.
