What is the average time frame for swelling after first Kybella treatment?

Asked By:sandrarube in Baton Rouge, LA

I am 28 days post Kybella first injection. I am still a bit swollen and it has turned into a hard knot. It is also very painful to touch. I've been putting Arnica gel on it and trying to gently massage but it is very tender even as far up as the front of my chin. I'm due for my second injection in two weeks and now I'm afraid to have another one with these symptoms. Is this normal?
