Trevoh Chalobah headed in an early opener for the hosts after 9 minutes. But Thomas Tuchel's men thought they had doubled their lead when Werner's header was ruled out by VAR for a foul from Cesar Azpilicueta on Kyle Walker-Peters in the build-up.
Southampton were handed a penalty following foul by Ben Chilwell on Tino Livramento inside the box allowed James Ward-Prowse to level 61st minutes. Meanwhile the Saints captain was later sent off for a late challenge on Jorginho.
Chelsea took the lead for the second time when Timo Werner met Azpilicueta's cross to restore Chelsea's lead in 84 minutes.
Ben Chilwell added a third five minutes later to ensure Tuchel's men returned to winning ways.
