I've read that Kybella's prices are only temporarily sky-high and will come down due to lack of demand at the current price. How long do you think it will take until Kybella costs about as much as Botox? Did other injectables, like Botox, follow a similar price trajectory where they were very expensive at first and then became more accessible? Also, what would you consider a reasonable price per vial of Kybella once it settles down?
Answer: Kybella cost This is interesting question since this is such a new product on the market. From an Econ 101 standpoint, currently supply is high and demand is low, so by that token it is as cheap as it will ever be. There are only a few of us who can even inject it in the country right now, and as that number grows, the price me too.Allergan, the makers of Botox, who recently just bought Kybella, started with one price for Botox initially, and as it became more popular later on actually increased the price. That was initially not well received, obviously, but the price reflected the ever increasing demand.It will be never be the same price as Botox. It is a different drug, indication, and dosage than Botox is. It may be priced in the same manner as Botox, that is by amount that you receive, which is determined by the surface area that you need treated.

Answer: Kybella pricing Like anything else, the market will dictate what a product or service is worth to the consumer. These types of injectable products are very expensive to research and develop. As of now, there are no competitors to Kybella in the injectable market with FDA approval. There are definitely other surgical options out there that may be better options for some people and more economical as well, but Kybella is unique in that it offers a non-surgical treatment option to the double chin/submental fullness.

Answer: Kybella's Price? No One Knows. Kybella is expensive. Whether the price goes up or down depends on how the sales go, and how satisfied the patients are in the long term. For the short term, I believe the price will be pretty stable.

Answer: Cost of Kybella I don't anticipate that the price of Kybella will change dramatically anytime soon. From a financial perspective, it is ideal for patients who only have a mild-moderate amount of submental fat. Those patients with significant amount of submental fat would be better served with liposuction from a financial standpoint. I don't expect that Kybella will ever cost the same as Botox. Botox and other fillers have actually increased in price, as the demand continues to increase.

Answer: Kybella pricing It is difficult to say what will happen with Kybella pricing. Allergan is in the process of acquiring Kythera, the makers of Kybella. I don't anticipate the pricing to change much with the acquisition, but it is hard to say.
