What can I do about nerve damage 5 months after Kybella was injected to my lymph nodes?

This must be performed by an experienced provider. Please, get a formal consultation with an expert or a board certified plastic surgeon. Best, Dr. Emer

there are so many things wrong about what you describe I don't know where to start.  First and foremost let's check the credentials on your provider. Perhaps this person should not be practicing medicine.  Kybella is FDA approved for chin fat removal only.  When used off label complications can definitely happen. I'm not a fan of this product for a multitude of reasons.  Generally nerve damage simply needs to be given time to see what level of recovery people get on their own.  Sometimes Botox can be used to manipulate the opposite side to create symmetry.  All of this is far too complex to give you any type of reasonable assessment or recommendation on real self.   Typically patients should wait a minimum of  12 to 18 months before pursuing permanent facial nerve damage treatment options.If your nerve damage is severe to the point of appearing like you have facial paralysis then consider talking to an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon who does facial reconstruction. Most likely you will find doctors that do this type of procedures at academic medical centers. It's important your provider knows what he or she did and the consequences so even if you've lost faith in their ability to help you aesthetically it's important that you give them periodic updates on how you're doing.  Educating the community on forms like real self giving accurate depictions is also very helpful so that others avoid these type of complications.  I would encourage you to consider reposting with an accurate timeline description including photographs.  I understand the desire for anonymity. Perhaps you can crop pictures to preserve your identity. I would like to see less people suffer unnecessary complications from the improper use of this product. Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
