Unhappy with side profile - Kybella? (photos)

Dear losangeles90909,
Kybella typically takes 3 to 5 treatments to work. This is why I've stopped carrying Kybella in my office. I recommend neck liposuction more often then any injectable procedure for the neck now. It provides superior results gives me more control over the area than any injectable. It also costs about the same as what you paid for your first kybella session. The liposuction can be done under local while awake in the office and recovery is about the same as kybella.

Hi There,
Kybella can be used to decrease mild-to-moderate fatty tissue under the chin and jaw area. It does not, however, change the jawline. Based on your photos, it does not seem that you have a significant amount of fatty tissue under the jawline. If you would like your jawline more defined, filler to the chin and jawline would be helpful. This would help frame your face and bring strength to your chin/jaw, which would in turn improve your neckline in the profile view. Because you don't seem to have a significant amount of fatty tissue under your chin/jaw, I'm not sure if Kybella will improve your side profile or jawline significantly.
Hope that helps!
