Answer: Kybella, results Kybella is a great treatment for small pockets of submental fat. One of the biggest risks is persistent edema where a hard area persists for several weeks. Often, if this is present, it masks the results from the kybella. In my patients, I will sometimes inject a local steroid to reduce this if it persists. If there is still hardness in the area, that should be addressed prior to liposuction as this will make the liposuction harder to perform and less optimal results. Generally, I tell people to wait 4-6 months after Kybella for liposuction. Return to your physician and discuss the concerns of the hardness. If you are not satisfied with the results, I would recommend a consultation with a physician who performs both non-invasive and invasive techniques. Best of luck.

Answer: Kybella melts the fat cells in the neck area. Thank you for your question! Kybella melts the fat cells in the neck area. It does not alter lax skin. After 3 treatments I would expect you to see some results. Maybe Kybella is not the right treatment for you. Regarding the lump in your neck, I would make a check up appointment with your provider or choose a different provider to assess your case. Liposuction might be an option for you as well. It is hard to give you more precise opinion without picture provided. Best of luck!
