Dr. Pietro was excellent. I did the hormone treatment program. When my blood results came back, he sat down and explained everything to me in detail. No stone was uncovered and every question answered. I am most impressed with both his knowledge and bedside manner.
Dr Pietro is an extremely professional, understanding and kind doctor. He explained the procedure in great detail and had no problem further explaining the questions which were asked of him. I have seen Dr Paul (as he is known) on a couple of occasions and each time he has made me feel at ease immediately and comfortable. I would have no hesitation in recommending Dr Paul.
Hello Amyzflying,Thank you for sharing your question with us. We typically will allow for arnica use as well as anti-inflammatory medications post Kybella treatments if you feel the need for added comfort. Lymph type massage as well will not interfere with your result. Kybella (deoxycholic acid) does its work to "dissolve" the fat cell pretty much on contact (at the time it is injected) which is the burning sensation experienced during the treatment. All the inflammation, "jiggling", firmness and soreness are a result of the inflammatory response which is how the body will naturally eliminate "dead" or "injured" cells from the body. It is hypothesized that the inflammatory response will help with the tightening of the skin to some degree however good science to prove this point is lacking. It you feel the need to do the things you are suggesting for your comfort feel free to. Also know that for most to achieve the results they desire 2-4 Kybella treatments will be needed. Be well.
Hello Julie santos,Thank you for your question and photos. Actually your smile is quite nice and has very little asymmetry. Asymmetry is actually quite normal for most all people with only difference being the degree. Hypothetically Botox can help when asymmetries are larger than what you have shown us I am afraid that if you start trying to make things exactly even you will ultimately be disappointed and begin chasing things side to side. See an experienced Botox injector for an in person evaluation.
Hello del dela cruz,Without any information regarding what type of injection, where you had said injection and for what reasons we are unable to assist you with any reliable information.
Hello wedny,Thank you for sharing your question with us. Safety first. If you are being treated for an active infection I would not recommend proceeding with CoolSculpting or any other elective procedure until that problem is fully resolved. Always best to inform your treating physician of any and all medications/supplements you are taking or may have recently took. Be well.
Hello mdelcristo,Thank you for sharing your concerns with us. Swelling tenderness and some numbness are quite common after Kybella and can last up to 4 weeks post treatment. Sun exposure is not typically discussed as a "precaution" during consultation or as part of post treatment instructions. If you are very concerned see your treating professional for additional reassurance.
