I am looking for procedures that would improve this asymmetry without surgically altering my jaw bones. I am a young adult with low body fat (16%). I was recommended Kybella during one consultation and wanted to get opinions as to whether Kybella would be effective in my case and whether or not it is the best treatment option that could provide long-lasting results. What would be the suggested treatment units and number of visits in order to see an effect if Kybella were to be used in my case?

Answer: Jawline Thank you for your photos. There are several options which should be done in combination to get a more defined or symmetric jawline. If you feel the problem is fat, then Kybella or liposuction can work. You should expect around 3 treatments (up to 2 vials each to notice a difference). Kybella is best for the area just under the chin. For more total jawline contouring, liposuction is more effective with less overall downtime and with immediate results. You should also consider filler such as Radiesse to build up the underlying jawline structure once the covering fat is reduced. Finally, botox in select areas can also thin the muscles which cross the jawline to reveal a sharper edges as well. It is best to have an in-office examination to evaluate your natural features and determine the best treatment plan to get the look you would like. Hope this helps!
