I have a small area of fat under my chin that is genetic, no matter the fluctuation in my weight it’s always there. I decided to try Kybella injections to reduce the fat pad under my chin. On day 4 as I post this review. I wanted others to see the days after to see the swelling that occurs. I had a hard time finding days 1 and 2 after of swelling and bruising in my research prior to treatment.

It was VERY QUICK, like a minute or less. Dr. Summer and her staff made me feel at ease because I was EXTREMELY nervous during my appointment time. I have a few big trips that were coming up and they made me aware of all the side effects and what to expect so I could make the best decision on timing for me. I sat with ice under my chin for about 10 mins and then she drew some lines and dots and we were ready to go. Like I said it was extremely quick and not very painful, injections similar to Botox or filler. There was an uncomfortable heavy hot feeling for the next ten-fifteen minutes after but really that was it. I wouldn’t even say painful, just uncomfortable. I do tend to have a high pain tolerance, but Dr.Summer was great!
Pictures are immediately after treatment when I got in my car.

Swelling was definitely in full effect. She said like a bull frog and it was! It didn’t hurt at all but it did feel weird and jiggly. Needless to say I didn’t leave the house.

Swelling has gone down a good bit from directly after treatment. I still notice it but no one else seems to.

Not quite back to baseline yet but close

I don’t see much change, but was told it may take two treatments. At five weeks out I am still very tender to the touch under the chin.
