Our PCDC and Kybella Services

Kybella is the only FDA-approved injectable formulation of synthetic deoxycholic acid (DC) - the active ingredient that helps break down and permanently remove fat cells beneath the chin. It is intended for adults with moderate to severe submental fullness who want a nonsurgical solution to reduce excess fat and achieve a sharper jawline. Kybella uses synthetic deoxycholic acid to dissolve fat cells, and once those cells are destroyed, they cannot store fat again. Many patients see visible improvement in chin profile and jawline definition after just two sessions, with full results from Kybella typically seen within 3–4 months.

PCDC Injections

For patients seeking additional options, PCDC (phosphatidylcholine-deoxycholate) injections offer an alternative fat-dissolving approach. PCDC can be effective for targeting stubborn fat deposits in the submental area, and our providers customize the treatment approach based on your individual fat distribution and skin quality. Because PCDC formulations are not FDA-approved - we source it from reliable local pharmacies and our team provides thorough disclosure of how this option compares to Kybella, including differences in clinical evidence and what to expect from outcomes.

Complementary Facial Treatments

A double chin isn't always just about fat - skin laxity, aging, and loss of collagen production can all contribute to the appearance of submental fullness. Bloom Aesthetics offers additional skin tightening and laser skin resurfacing options for the face and neck, including Morpheus8 RF microneedling, AgeJet advanced plasma skin resurfacing, and density radio-frequency therapies. Combined treatment plans can address both fat reduction and skin concerns - particularly beneficial for patients dealing with wrinkles or laxity that Kybella alone won't correct. We also offer dermal fillers such as lip and cheek fillers in Orlando, Botox, and Sculptra collagen bio-stimulator to further enhance facial balance and natural beauty across the entire face.

How It Works

Getting started with Kybella or PCDC at Bloom Aesthetics is a straightforward process - from your first appointment to your final results, here's what to expect, and you can explore our aesthetic treatment education blog to learn more about related non-surgical options.

Step 1: Comprehensive Consultation

Your journey begins with a detailed assessment of your chin and neck area by one of our medical providers. We evaluate your submental fullness, skin elasticity, facial anatomy, and any medical conditions that may affect candidacy. Treatment with Kybella or PCDC may not be suitable for everyone based on individual conditions, so this step is essential. We'll discuss your goals, set realistic expectations about gradual changes, and create a customized treatment plan with a clear timeline and expected outcomes.

Step 2: PCDC and Kybella Treatment Sessions

Kybella and PCDC treatments take about 15 to 30 minutes to complete. Kybella injections are performed using a very fine needle in a precise grid pattern beneath the chin, with small injections spaced approximately 1 cm apart across the treatment area. A numbing agent or ice is applied beforehand for comfort. Most patients require 2 to 6 Kybella treatments for optimal results, with each session spaced at least one month apart. Kybella should be administered by a trained healthcare professional, and our providers monitor the process closely for safety and effectiveness throughout every session.

Step 3: Recovery and Results

After each treatment, temporary swelling, bruising, and numbness in the treatment area are normal and typically resolve within days to weeks. You can return to most daily activities quickly thanks to minimal downtime. The body's natural process gradually clears the destroyed fat cells over the following weeks - visible improvements from Kybella can appear after 2 sessions, with full results typically seen within 3–4 months. Results from Kybella are considered permanent after treatment. Kybella destroys fat cells permanently, preventing their return, and Kybella achieves long-lasting fat reduction when weight is stable. Follow-up appointments allow us to monitor your progress and plan additional sessions if needed to reach your desired results.

PCDC and Kybella Results and Treatment Outcomes

Kybella's clinical track record is backed by rigorous Phase III trials - REFINE-1 and REFINE-2 - which demonstrated both clinician- and patient-reported improvements in submental fullness. In pooled trial data, approximately 68% of treated patients were classified as responders, compared to roughly 20% in placebo groups. About 13.4% of patients achieved a two-grade or greater improvement in submental fat rating scales. Among responders, durability was remarkable: 82.4% of patients maintained their improvement at the three-year mark.

At Bloom Aesthetics, many patients notice early improvements at 4–6 weeks after their first session, with more pronounced contouring by 8–12 weeks following their final treatment. In many cases, the jawline appears noticeably more defined and the overall chin profile is dramatically improved. Kybella results are considered permanent - the destroyed fat cells cannot regenerate, and new fat cells do not form in the treated area, so results hold as long as you maintain a stable weight.

Approximately 79–82% of Kybella-treated patients in clinical studies reported satisfaction with the appearance of their face and chin after treatment. Patients also reported meaningful psychological improvements, including reduced self-consciousness - benefits that persisted for up to three years in follow-up assessments.

Results vary based on individual anatomy, the amount of submental fullness, skin elasticity, and the number of treatment sessions performed. During your consultation, our providers will evaluate your specific situation and help you understand what kind of outcome to expect.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Kybella and PCDC cost in Orlando and Lake Mary?

Kybella costs vary based on the number of treatments needed and how many vials each session requires. In Orlando, Kybella treatments among medical spa providers typically range from $1,200 to $1,800 per session, depending on the amount of submental fat being addressed. Bloom Aesthetics offers very reasonable and competitive pricing relative to the local market. Kybella and PCDC treatments are not covered by insurance. Payment options include cash, credit card, and CareCredit. Compared to surgical alternatives like liposuction - which involves higher costs, anesthesia fees, and extended downtime - Kybella provides significant value as a permanent, nonsurgical solution.

How many Kybella or PCDC sessions will I need?

Patients typically require two to six Kybella treatments for optimal results. Kybella treatment sessions are spaced at least one month apart to allow the body to process the eliminated fat cells. The exact number depends on the volume and distribution of your submental fullness, your desired results, and how your body responds. Many patients begin to see visible improvement after just two sessions. During your initial consultation, our providers will evaluate your anatomy and recommend a personalized treatment plan with a realistic timeline.

What are the side effects of Kybella and PCDC?

Common side effects of Kybella and PCDC include swelling, bruising, and numbness in the treatment area. Redness, tenderness, and firmness beneath the chin are also typical - these reactions are expected and generally resolve within days to a few weeks. Swelling tends to peak during the first few days after treatment, and bruising typically fades within a week.

Kybella can cause serious side effects including nerve injury and difficulty swallowing. In clinical trials, marginal mandibular nerve injury (causing an uneven smile) occurred in approximately 4% of subjects, with a median recovery time of about 44 days. Trouble swallowing occurred in roughly 2% of subjects, typically resolving within a few days. All such cases in clinical studies resolved without long-term effects. Our experienced providers use precise injection mapping and careful technique to minimize these risks and manage patient comfort throughout the process.

Am I a good candidate for Kybella and PCDC?

Ideal candidates are adults with submental fullness - moderate to severe fat under the chin that persists despite diet and exercise. Candidates should have good skin elasticity for optimal results, as the skin needs to retract naturally after the fat is eliminated. Kybella is not suitable for individuals with loose, inelastic skin, as those patients may benefit more from surgical procedures or a combination of Kybella with non-surgical skin tightening in Lake Mary or Orlando.

Kybella is a non-surgical alternative to liposuction, making it a strong choice for patients who want to avoid surgery. However, it may not be appropriate for individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have active infections in the treatment area, are on blood-thinning medications without medical clearance, or have pre-existing nerve conditions in the lower face. Candidates should have realistic expectations about gradual changes - Kybella improves facial contour without surgery or downtime, but results develop over weeks and may require multiple sessions.

During your consultation, we'll evaluate whether Kybella, PCDC, or another approach is the right fit for you.
