I'm no stranger to injectables. I've been getting voluma on my cheekbones for years, and I love the results. My doctor doesn't do Kybella, so I have to seek out someone new, but I'm a little nervous. I know Kybella is quite different, and I want to ensure that no damage is done to me. At the risk of sounding like a micromanager, what should I ensure this doctor does when performing Kybella? My biggest concern is how deep should he be injecting? How much should he inject on each spot?

Answer: Kybella The needle for Kybella only goes about 1cm into the skin so the injections are shallow. The number of injections will depend on how much fat needs to be removed. Make certain to schedule your treatment with a board certified plastic surgeon who has experience with Kybella and all should be fine.

Answer: Kybella Kybella is injected and FDA approved only for submental fat therefore it is injected in the under the chin area. The injection depth is half a needle and it travels only 1cm from the injection site, so the risk for any damage is minimal. The amount injected varies by the amount of submental fat. I always prefer to inject smaller doses and then have 2 or 3 treatments. It all depends how much fat you have. You may need more treatments than that. It is hard to tell without a photo. Make sure to choose experienced provide for best results. Good luck!
