Will Kybella make skin looser? (photo)

January 2, 2017
Asked By:Reba1969 in Atlanta, GA

I am 4 weeks post kybella treatment 1. Was performed by doctor who participated in clinical trials and has trained other doctors in the procedure. I went for tightening of small bit of loose skin, and she insisted this would work, even though I had only a small amount of fat. I loved the results when initial swelling subsided, but at 4 weeks I have loose skin...seems more than before. Will this get better or worse? Am petrified of doing a second treatment if it will just make skin even looser.

Answer: Kybella should not aggravate loose skin if the amount of fat to be treated is reasonable.
