Can Kybella be used after Submental Liposuction?

The answer to that question is yes. Kybella can be used to remove areas of submental fat that remain after a liposuction procedure. However, if the problem is excess skin, then a skin tightening procedure may be necessary or even a neck lift if the amount of skin is excessive. I have had many patients that arrive for a consultation for Kybella but the problem is excess skin and this cannot be improved without a procedure to address the skin. Also, there is a layer of fat below the muscle that requires surgery to obtain a cosmetic improvement to the neck and this layer of fat is not treated with Kybella or liposuction.Good luck.

The key is to understand what is going on with your neck.  Some folks have unusual neck configurations that look full due to underlying glands.  Those do not respond to Kybella or neck liposuction for that matter.  However, if the residual fullness is just from fat, it is possible to Kybella to improve this without further surgery.
