Double Chin Fat Removal Treatment Options
Chin fat can be annoying, unsightly and can deflate your self esteem.
Having a procedure to reduce double chin fat can make you feel more confident and comfortable with the shape of your chin and neck. Many people ask how to remove a double chin.
At Cosmetic Laser Solutions MedSpa, we offer two choices to remove a double chin.
- AGNES RF Laser is our preferred method for fat removal as we can target areas of fat in a more precise manner.
- Kybella® is an FDA-approved formula that is injected into the chin fat to dissolve the fat cells.
Both options provide permanent results.
AgnesRF is an FDA approved device that liquefies fat with radiofrequency energy.
Both options are for adults with submental (under chin) fullness and will permanently destroy fat cells to improve your profile.
Services are supervised by our board-certified plastic surgeon and Laser Clinical Director.
How does Chin Fat Removal work with AGNES RF?
Utilizing AGNES RF technology, a micro-insulated needle penetrates the skin and eliminates fat deposits by selectively heating the tissue with radiofrequency energy.
The fat cell is permanently eliminated.
The beauty behind this method is the ability to not only remove chin fat but to contour and reshape it for a more chiseled appearance.
Additionally, while getting ride of stubborn fat cells, the energy from the radiofrequency procedure has a tightening effect so you will not have skin laxity. Collagen production is increased as well so improvement continues over 90 days. Fabulous!
We highly recommend Agnes RF as an alternative to the Coolscuplting CoolMini treatment.
The disadvantage of the Coolmini device is that it’s limited by the handpiece size.
However, with AGNES RF, there are no limitations to the size of the area being treated. In addition, AGNES RF includes a skin tightening benefit that further improves the appearance of the treatment area.
How does Kybella Work?
An alternative to AGNES RF is Kybella®. Kybella® treats under chin and neck fat by injecting a compound called sodium deoxycholate.
This substance naturally occurs in the body and aids in breaking down and absorbing fat throughout body areas.
By strategically injecting this molecule throughout the chin, you can naturally eliminate submental fullness without the need for plastic surgery or liposuction.
Treatment with Kybella involves multiple injections into the chin area. It is a little uncomfortable, but tolerable.
Kybella causes the fat cell membrane to rupture. Post treatment there is swelling which subsides over a 10 day period.
Each treatment session includes multiple small injections under your chin area and can take 20-30 minutes.
For optimal results, most patients have 4-6 treatments spaced about 2-4 weeks apart.
CoolSculpting vs. Agnes RF vs. Kybella: Which is Best for Chin Fat?
When searching for non-surgical double chin treatments, patients are typically presented with three distinct choices.
Understanding how they compare structurally and financially will help you choose the best return on your investment:
| Treatment | How It Works | Best For… | Skin Tightening Benefit? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kybella | Injectable acid permanently dissolves localized fat cells over a series of targeted sessions. | Precise, localized fat pockets and detailed jawline contouring. | Mild (relies on natural inflammatory healing response). |
| Agnes RF | Precision micro-insulated needles deliver Radiofrequency energy to melt fat *and* contract loose skin simultaneously. | Patients with stubborn chin fat who also suffer from skin laxity or a softening jawline. | Excellent. Actively triggers heavy collagen production to tighten submental skin. |
| CoolSculpting (Mini) | Cryolipolysis (fat freezing) crystallizes and kills fat cells via an external cooling applicator. | Larger, “pinchable” pockets of tissue that fit completely inside the vacuum applicator head. | None (can sometimes worsen the appearance of loose skin if volume drops quickly). |
Why We Frequently Recommend Agnes RF or Kybella Over CoolSculpting
While CoolSculpting is a popular option for larger body contouring areas, the submental zone requires incredible precision. Because CoolSculpting relies on a fixed applicator size, it cannot sculpt or taper the edges of the jawline with the artistic accuracy of an injection or a targeted micro-needle.
Furthermore, removing fat without addressing the skin envelope can leave behind a deflated, sagging appearance. This is why our clinical team heavily utilizes Agnes RF microneedling and customized Kybella treatments at our Stoneham medspa.
Agnes RF allows us to destroy the stubborn fat pocket while instantly tightening the loose skin left behind, delivering a crisp, sharp, sculpted profile that non-invasive freezing simply cannot match.
How Much Does Kybella Cost in Boston & Stoneham, MA?
One of the most frequent questions we receive at Cosmetic Laser Solutions MedSpa is regarding Kybella cost. On average, a single Kybella treatment session in the Boston and Greater North Shore area ranges between $1,200 and $2,400, with individual vials typically priced between $600 and $800. Because every jawline profile is completely unique, your overall investment depends heavily on a few clinical factors:
- Number of Vials Needed: Most submental fullness sessions require 2 to 3 vials of Kybella per treatment to safely dissolve target fat cells. More advanced profiling may require additional vials.
- Total Treatment Sessions: While some patients achieve their ideal profile contour in just 2 sessions, others with more advanced stubborn chin fat may require 3 to 4 sessions spaced roughly 4 to 6 weeks apart to see complete results.
- Custom Combinations: To optimize your investment, we frequently combine or compare Kybella treatments with non-invasive alternatives like Agnes RF or advanced skin tightening devices like Morpheus8 to sculpt and firm the jawline comprehensively.
Is Kybella Permanent?
Unlike temporary injectables, Kybella uses synthetic deoxycholic acid to permanently destroy fat cells under the chin. Once destroyed, these cells can no longer store or accumulate fat.
This means that once your initial series of treatments is complete, no further maintenance sessions are required, making it a highly cost-effective, long-term solution for double chin removal.
If you are searching for an exact calculation for the best Kybella cost near me, we recommend scheduling a personalized consultation at our Stoneham clinic. During your visit, we provide a complete, transparent pricing breakdown tailored to your anatomy, fat distribution, and unique aesthetic goals.

Frequently Asked Questions About Chin Fat Removal
When will I see results from a Chin Fat Removal Treatment?

You may experience redness, swelling, bruising, itching, and bearable discomfort. These side effects can last 3-10 days.
How many Chin Fat Removal Treatments will I need?
The exact number of sessions will depend on the amount of fat you have under your chin and your desired profile.
Agnes RF technology may need 1-3 sessions depending on fat layer thickness.
Kybella best results are with 3-4 sessions spaced approximately 4 to 6 weeks apart.
How much does it cost to get rid of fat under the chin area?
