I was wondering if it is as effective if I do 1 vial per treatment instead of two? I understand that most ppl do 2 vials, but it would be more cost effective for me if I do the same # of treatments, but instead split it into a longer period by doing 1 vial per mo. vs. 2 at once per treatment. I still plan on doing all the treatments & I understand I won't see changes with just 1 vial. I just want to spread it out to make the cost more management. BUT only if it still works with 1 vial at a time.
Answer: Kybella Dear jmulko91,Kybella typically takes 3 to 5 treatments to work. This is why I've stopped carrying Kybella in my office. I recommend neck liposuction more often then any injectable procedure for the neck now. It provides superior results gives me more control over the area than any injectable. It also costs about the same as what you paid for your first kybella session. The liposuction can be done under local while awake in the office and recovery is about the same as kybella.Daniel Barrett, MD Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, American Society of Plastic Surgery Member, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery

Answer: Kybella vials Kybella would still be effective treating at lower doses like 1 vial per treatment session instead of two, but it would require a longer period of treatment and more overall treatment sessions. If cost is a concern with Kybella, another option would be submental liposuction. Submental liposuction generally costs about the same as 2-3 treatments of Kybella at 2 vials per treatment. While some patients go on to need 4, 5, or 6 treatment sessions of Kybella, this is not the case with submental liposuction. There is one recovery period and minimal down time.While patients are often afraid of this procedure, the discomfort is on the same level as Kybella and most of my patients fall asleep during liposuction with only a little medication to help them relax. See a facial plastic surgeon to discuss all of the options in detail.All the best,

Answer: Is one vial of Kybella effective? It depends This will depend on the individual and needs an in-person evaluation. Both Kybella or neck liposuction are good options and will improve the double chin. It depends on your lifestyle and personality which would be better for you. Kybella is best for patients that: 1) Do not want surgery 2) Are not surgical candidates 3) Not willing to wear a compression dressing around the face for 1 week 4) Patient- The results of Kybella will take months Kybella take 1-3 treatments every 6 weeks. Patient will develop swelling and possible bruising after each injection that may last a few days. The benefit of Kybella is each treatment is quick and completed in the office. However, some patients need more than one treatment to get desired results. Neck Liposuction is best for patients that: 1) Want a single treatment 2) One recovery time- Downtime for neck liposuction require wearing a wrap around face for 1 week. 3) Less painful 4) Quicker results 5) Cost is a concern Neck liposuction is a quick surgical procedure that can be complete while the patient is awake. It cost around the same price a Kybella and can be less in patients with heavier necks. The single recovery of neck liposuction may be a better option for some patients. I hope this helps.

Answer: Is it effective to only do one vial of Kybella It is effective to do one vial only but it may take a very long time to give you the results you want. Normally, it takes about 2 vials per treatment and everyone needs a minimum of 2 treatments to achieve results. The benefit of one vial is that you will experience less swelling per treatment
