The Basics

What is Liquid Lipo?

Kybella is the only FDA-approved, non-surgical injectable treatment designed to contour and improve the appearance of submental fat — the stubborn fat beneath the chin that often resists diet and exercise. Using deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body, Kybella permanently destroys fat cells so they can no longer store or accumulate fat. Liquid Lipo applies the same powerful fat-dissolving technology to other areas of the body — including the jowls, bra rolls, inner thighs, abdomen, and more.

At Woodstock Medical Aesthetics, Nikki Gewirz PA-C customizes each treatment to your specific contouring goals — whether you're targeting a double chin or reshaping stubborn pockets of fat elsewhere on the body.

Kybella

Kybella is the only FDA-approved, non-surgical injectable treatment designed specifically to permanently destroy fat cells beneath the chin — delivering a more defined, sculpted jawline and profile without surgery or downtime.

Liquid Lipo

Fat-dissolving injections applied to multiple body areas — jowls, bra rolls, inner thighs, abdomen, flanks, and more. A non-surgical alternative to liposuction for targeted contouring.

Permanent Results

Once fat cells are destroyed by deoxycholic acid, they are gone for good. Unlike diet and exercise, which shrink fat cells, Liquid Lipo and Kybella permanently eliminate them.

Treatment Areas

Where Liquid Lipo works

Liquid Lipo vs. Surgery

How does it compare to liposuction?

Traditional Liposuction

Surgical procedure requiring anesthesia and incisions. Significant downtime of weeks. More dramatic results possible in a single session for larger areas. Higher cost and greater risk profile. Permanent fat removal from treated areas.

What to Expect

Your Liquid Lipo experience

01

Consultation

Nikki evaluates your target areas, discusses your contouring goals, and creates a personalized treatment plan — including number of sessions and areas to be treated.

02

Treatment

A numbing agent is applied, then the fat-dissolving solution is injected in a grid pattern across the treatment area. Sessions take 30–60 minutes depending on the area.

03

Recovery

Expect swelling, bruising, and tenderness in the treated area for 1–2 weeks — this is a normal sign the fat cells are being destroyed. Most patients return to work within days.

04

Results

Results become visible as swelling resolves — typically 4–8 weeks after treatment. Most patients require 2–4 sessions spaced 6 weeks apart for optimal contouring.

FAQ

Common questions

Are the results permanent?
Yes — once fat cells are destroyed by deoxycholic acid, they cannot regenerate. The results are permanent as long as you maintain a stable weight. Significant weight gain could cause remaining fat cells in the area to expand.
How many sessions will I need?
Most patients need 2–4 sessions spaced 6 weeks apart to achieve their desired results. The exact number depends on the amount of fat in the target area and your individual goals. Nikki will advise you during your consultation.
Does it hurt?
A topical numbing agent is applied before treatment to minimize discomfort. You may feel pressure, warmth, or stinging during injections — this is temporary. The treated area will be sore and swollen for 1–2 weeks after treatment.
How much swelling should I expect?
Swelling is significant and expected — particularly for chin treatments. Plan for 1–2 weeks of noticeable swelling. This is a sign the treatment is working. Avoid important events within 2 weeks of treatment.
Am I a good candidate?
Liquid Lipo and Kybella work best for patients who are at or near their goal weight with specific pockets of stubborn fat that don't respond to diet and exercise. It is not a weight loss treatment. Nikki will evaluate your candidacy during your consultation.
What is the cost?
Liquid Lipo treatments are priced at $600 per session at Woodstock Medical Aesthetics. Multiple sessions are typically recommended for optimal results.
