Is using the steam room OK after getting Kybella treatment?

Question

Michael I. Echavez, MD · Answer

I do not think that using a steam room after your Kybella treatment would affect your final results but it may temporarily increase the amount of swelling that occurs after the procedure.

Sabrina Fabi, MD · Answer

Going into a steam room after Kybella injections won’t affect your results, but it could make you uncomfortable and increase the swelling. I’d stay away from extra heat until your swelling goes down.  Consulting a board-certified dermatologist will help you make your post-procedure care choices.

Thank you for your question. You shouldn't have any problem with using a steam room after Kybella. You can also speak to your physician to find out how he feels about the matter.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Yes you can use the steam room after kybella but you may swell more after treatment.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Dear cosmeticcomic,every plastic surgeon has his own postoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.Daniel Barrett, MD
