Kybella and plastic surgery will the Kybella affect a future surgery?

Congratulations on all the procedures you will be having.  Kybella itself will not affect any of the treatments you will be having, though in my experience, should you decide to have liposuction in your neck or a neck lift in the future, Kybella may make it a bit more difficult for some surgeons to achieve an optimal result due to the scar tissue that forms after the procedure. All the best,Carlos Mata MD, MBA, FACSBoard-Certified Plastic Surgeon

Kybella is FDA-approved only as a treatment for submental fat – in other words, a double chin. All of the other procedures you mentioned are on other areas of your body, so they should not be affected by Kybella, as in studies Kybella has never been shown to spread beyond the tissue it was injected in. Nevertheless, your surgeon should be aware that you are contemplating Kybella, just in case there is some overlap. Be sure to have your Kybella injections performed by a board-certified dermatologist for the best results.

Kybella won't interfere with your future scheduled surgeries. Keep in mind, Kybella results can take 6-8 weeks and does require a series of treatments to get improvement. For best results with Kybella, I recommend a combination approach with thermage, ultherapy, exilis. VASER liposuction in combination with ThermiRF is an alternative for contouring the chin, if you're a candidate. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer
