Can I use a combination of CoolSculpting and Kybella to treat my chin fat?

Coolsculpting is an excellent form of non-invasive  fat reduction for
the right patient. Some applicators take 1 or 2 hours but the new advantage
applicators take only 35 minutes and have significantly less risk for delayed
onset pain (especially in the abdomen). Results are seen at 2 months and
typically 1-3 treatments will be necessary on each area to achieve ideal
results. The number of treatments depends on the amount of fat there and the
patient's goals.  There is not downtime and the results can be impressive
in the right patient.  We also use the Zimmer Z-wave for improved patient
comfort and added results. The best candidates are those who are in pretty
good shape with areas of stubborn fat that won't go away no matter what. It is possible to combine the treatments ;however, it is important to wait till the needed time in between each treatment to see full benefits of the treatment.

We offer both Coolsculpting and Kybella for submental adipose tissue. We have seen amazing results from the Cool Mini in this area. The protocol for the Cool Mini is two treatments 6 weeks apart, but most of our patients are thrilled after one treatment. Compared to Kybella the Cool Mini is not as uncomfortable of a procedure, offers far less down time (if any at all) and works like it says it does. If you are going to use Kybella in conjunction with the Cool Mini wait the 3 months for the Cool Mini to play its course and go from there.
