Gawley Plastic Surgery Center in Phoenix and Scottsdale, Ariz., is now offering the newly FDA-approved Kybella, a non-surgical treatment for submental fat, or 'double-chin.'

Here are four key notes:

2. The Kybella is an injectable cytolytic drug to be used for improving moderate to severe fullness in the chin.

3. The FDA approved Kybella for patients over 18 and only for use in the submental.

4. Bryan Gawley, MD, and Cheri Ong, MD, FACS, are among the surgeons at the center.
