I had kybella this morning and am seeking evidenced based advice on swelling. There seems to be conflicting information. One school of thought is that icing, compression, and other efforts should be taken to reduce swelling. The other is that inflammation is beneficial because it leads to higher neocollagenesis due to the wound healing cascade. Is there research to support either of these approaches? Thank you so much in advance.

Answer: Kybella Results--add thermage, ultherapy, exilis, VASER, ThermiRF Inflammation is typical and will not interfere with your results. For after care, I recommend venus legacy and massage. It can take 6-8 weeks to start to see results with Kybella and some people need more than one treatment. To improve Kybella results, 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

Answer: Swelling after Belkyra ( Kybella) this is a great question, ThankyouInflammation and swelling is great. The immediate swelling can represent fat death and then the inflammation leads to collagen production. This helps with skin retraction. I always tell my patietns to embrace the swelling as it means the product is doing its job. the skin retraction usually takes at least 4 weeks to start happening.Good luck and i hope this helps
