Answer: Ice burn on neck after Kybella I'm sorry you had this experience. In general I advise patients to be very cautious when applying cold OR heat to any part of the body where a procedure has just been performed. Your ability to sense temperature can be affected after a procedure like Kybella for the first week or so. It is actually much easier to burn yourself with ice packs and heating pads than people think. I would recommend scheduling an appointment with the doctor who injected your Kybella to have them evaluate the severity of the burn and determine if any further treatment is necessary. It's always better to be safe than sorry. Best of luck!

Answer: Kybella it sounds like you gave yourself a bit of frost-bite... it will go away. You should know that your skin will be numb for a while after Kybella... do not put ice directly on your skin during this time.My best,Dr. Nazarian@drsheilanazarian on Instagram
