I am getting married in 24 days and have had no luck with the improvement of my profile through weight loss. I am concerned about the swelling and hardness that can be experienced after Kybella. I was told that I did not qualify for cool sculpting as I do not have enough fat for that procedure. I am hoping I can do 1 vial of Kybella to reduce any side effects this close to my wedding.
Answer: No Kybella 1 vial of Kybella (~2ml) would leave you with swelling that could last between 4-6 weeks before you see a result. I would suggest not doing the Kybella nor Coolsculpting treatment right now. You might benefit from a little skin tightening with Forma though, which has no downtime or swelling effects.

Answer: Kybella injections 3 weeks before wedding I would not recommend Kybella before your wedding. The swelling after the injections is real and can last 7 to 10 days. It would be best to do ThermiSmooth to tighten the area until after the wedding when you can fully commit to Kybella without worrying about the side effects.Best of luck. Enjoy your special day!

Answer: Filler, jawline shape Dear pikaluvrThank you for your question and photos! It is too close to your wedding for procedures that may cause bruising or swelling . For temporary improvement - shaping your anterior and posterior jawline will help disguise you neck contour.With Warm RegardsTrevor M Born MD

Answer: Kybella before upcoming wedding Hello pikaluvr, Thank you for your question and sharing your images. WIth only 24 days, I would recommend against doing Kybella. The swelling can be pronounced and last at least a week if not longer. Also the results are not immediate and can take multiple sessions. Other forms of nonsurgical fat reduction such as Sculpsure or Coolsculpt will take about 6 weeks before you would see results. After your wedding, you may be a great candidate for a minimally invasive neck contouring procedure like the ProfileLift that I offer in my practice. I would recommend consultation with a facial plastic surgeon to discuss your options when you are ready. Congratulations and enjoy the day!All my best! Dr. Elizabeth
