I literally read about Kybella 3 days ago and booked my appointment for tomorrow. Excited to get it done, nervous about the whole bullfrog recovery look for 2 weeks. My before shots (looking straight ahead and looking down) attached. I'm hoping I can spend this weekend recovering through the worst of it! Wish me luck and stay tuned! Updated on 18 Sep 2015: Got it done. Now at home. If you Botox, then it's basically the same feeling but only if you use topical freezing and place an ice pack on there! I ended up using two vials (was initially told one vial might suffice). The nurse marked the spots where NOT to inject, applied the dotted "temporary tattoos" and away she went. Tiny botox-like pricks was all I really felt but lower, closer down to the neck it was more sensitive. I almost immediately started to feel the achy, bruising feeling in my chin (the tip of my chin, which has nothing to do with the injection area). Felt like my nerves or muscles were being affected all day. But it's just the bruised and aching feeling I feel now. Sore. Definitely puffing out - I look bloated and stuffy in the neck area. Going to ice religiously! Updated on 19 Sep 2015: It's been 24 hours since my procedure. Yesterday was basically the worst of it, feeling-wise. But based on my research, reviews on here and medical professional advice, TODAY OFFICIAL DAY 1 is supposed to be the worst of it. BUT! Today, feels ok! Just swollen, a little achy/bruised feeling if I tense my jaw and throat muscles. That's it. I expected so much worse. Tip for faster recovery: 1) Pop some arnica (the nurse there gave me 5-6 little pellets (homeopathic stuff). 2) ICE ICE ICE. I Iced religiously - on the 3 hour drive back, I iced twice for about 15 minutes each. Then I went home and changed my ice pack about 3-4 times (each time was about 15 minutes, or as long as those little gel ice packs last for). 3) Drink lots of water. Your body is ridding itself of the destroyed fat cells. Updated on 20 Sep 2015: Official day 2. Swelling continues to go down but it's definitely still swollen and hot to touch. Skin under chin is numb. Aching bruising feeling is about 2/5 now. Day 1 was 3/5 and day of procedure was definitely close to 5/5! I haven't gone to hot yoga or done any cardio as per my usual routine. I feel like exercising is going to aggravate it and slow down my healing process. I feel chubby and fat and swollen still though. Updated on 28 Sep 2015: Still swollen. I feel it more on the left side, the bruised feeling along the outer chin/jaw line. The puffy fat pad area that was treat is numb still. Not much else to report. At this point, it's just time and playing the waiting game. #patience Updated on 7 Nov 2015: Just thought I'd do another check in here. Being a Kybella "pioneer" has its pros and cons. Right now...maybe I am my own worst critic (we usually are!) but my chin still feels swollen, a bit of numbness still, and it still does ache (bruising feeling with the occasional sharp pain). When I look down I still have a double chin. The little "fat" pad is soft but still feels like a swollen lump, in general. Perhaps it's scar tissue and I'm supposed to massage it a little? I don't know! So frustrating. Will try and post pics shortly. Updated on 7 Nov 2015: Do you see a difference from the first pics I posted? This is 8 weeks later. Updated on 7 Nov 2015: Here it is. I don't really see a diff.
