The photos you provided were blurry. It looks like you have extra fat under your skin but that your skin is firm and of good quality. If so, then Kybella might be your best choice. It takes several treatments to melt away your submental fat. You’ll have some skin tightening, too. Be sure to consult a board-certified dermatologist who can help you decide which procedure best suits your needs.
Thank you for your question. It depends on what you are looking for or what are your concerns. Is fat your main concern, or sagging skin? Kybella is great for treating submental fat, also known as a double chin. There are also options such as a Botox "Neck Lift" if you are interested in correcting lines or wrinkles on the neck.
Kybella is good for removing stubborn areas of fat. Keep in mind, a combination approach is needed to get the most improvement with non-invasive options like Kybella. I recommend Kybella with thermage, ultherapy, exilis. VASER liposuction in combination with ThermiRF is a great alternative for contouring the chin, if you're a candidate and can be performed at the same time as a neck lift. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer
Both Kybella or neck liposuction are good options and will improve the double chin. A chin implant can improve projection. 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 monthsKybella 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 concernNeck 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.
Kybella permanently removed the fat below the chin. It is not for the neck. From the photo it is not clear that your concern is due to fat but perhaps due to skin laxity. Once you have a consultation by a physician from different angles the correct procedure can be recommended. Kybella can be combined with a skin tightening procedure if necessary. An experienced physician will let you know if you can be helped with Kybella.
