Just talked to my plastic surgeon about Kybella? I am 47, weigh 134. He said the cost is $1,500--- is that per treatment or for all treatments? How many treatments might I need? Would you recommend this over chin lipo? If so, why?
Answer: Kybella vs Coolmini vs Liposuction Fantastic question! Good to know all of your options.There are multiple factors that go into answering this question...If there is a lot of fat, liposuction is your best bet. This can be done in-office under local anesthesia.If surgery is not something you are comfortable with, Coolsculpting would be your best bet financially... as long as the Coolsculpting applicator fits and you are okay with more time to see full results (than liposuction). If your jaw is too small or the amount of fat too little, the CoolMini may not fit.Lastly, if you have a small amount of fat and the CoolMini applicator doesn't fit your face, I would go with Kybella. There is a significant recovery period with Kybella and the product is not cheap. That is why I reserve it for people with a small amount of submental fat.All three will give you some skin tightening.My best,Dr. Nazarian@drsheilanazarian on Instagram

Answer: Kybella: A Solution for Fat Beneath the Chin Kybella is an exciting new FDA- approved treatment for submental fullness, or a double chin. Kybella (Deoxycholic Acid) is injected into the fat pad under the chin for permanent results. Often 2 or 3 treatments are needed to completely contour the chin and remove the unwanted fat. A skillfully trained provider can determine if you are a candidate for Kybella vs other surgical neck procedures. The procedure is safe and effects are evident even after one treatment! #Kybellatreatments #doublechin #fatreduc iontreatments

Answer: Choosing Kybella for Chin Fat Treatments KYBELLA® is used to improve the appearance and profile of moderate to severe fat below the chin --often referred to as a “double chin . Kybella is a cytolytic drug, which when injected into tissue physically destroys the cell membrane. When properly injected into submental fat, Kybella destroys fat cells getting rid of unwanted double chin fat.We suggest 2 or 3 treatments scheduled 4-6 weeks apart . Our patients have seen noticable improvements at every treatment! #chinfattreatments #Kybellafattreatments #Kybellafattreatments

Answer: Kybella vs. Laserlipo Kybella is a wonderful option for patients who are looking to treat a pocket of fat directly under the chin. I would assume the cost you were quoted is per session. Our practice offers both Kybella and LaserLipo. If you have a good amount of excess fat and volume in areas other than just the "double chin," I would recommend Laserlipo. We perform our lipo in the office and there is very little downtime with the treatment. Cost actually are similar at our practice for a series of Kybella vs. Lipo. You are able to cover a larger area with Lipo and strengthen the jawline. I would consult with a provider that has multiple options so that they can offer the best treatment suited for your individual needs.

Answer: Kybella is good for certain candidates with submental fat under the chin Good candidates for Kybella have submental fat under the chin that they would like to get rid of non-invasively. To determine if you are a candidate, an in-person consultation is required in which the doctor can assess your situation and talk to you about your goals. Whether you choose Kybella or chin liposuction just depends on your personal preferences and the results of your consultation; both treatment options can be very effective for contouring the chin. Liposuction can get you results in a single session, but you will need to spend a couple days recovering as well as wear a compression garment for some time. $1500 sounds about right for the cost of a single Kybella session.
