Answer: Do not worry about sun exposure We perform a lot of Kybella at our clinic. Swelling, tenderness, tightness, and even lumpiness is common in the first few days (sometimes longer) after the procedure. Do not worry about your sun exposure after Kybella this should not change your results.

Answer: Kybella Facts about Sun Exposure & Results--add thermage, ultherapy, exilis, VASER, ThermiRF Some swelling is typical after Kybella, but sun exposure won't negatively impact your results. Sun protection is always essential. Keep in mind, Kybella is good for dissolving fat under the chin, but a combination approach is needed to get the most improvement with non-invasive options. I recommend a combination approach with thermage, ultherapy, exilis. VASER liposuction in combination with ThermiRF is the best alternative for contouring the chin. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Kybella and the sun I don't know of any interaction between the sun and a Kybella treatment. As a matter of fact, it is not a topic of discussion during the consult for Kybella. You may want to have your injector evaluate the swelling but I typically tell my patients to expect some level of swelling for 2-4 weeks after their treatment. Best of luck!

Answer: Sun exposure & Kybella Sun exposure won't adversely affect your Kybella. My guess is that maybe you did more "exercise" than normal and that is what is causing the swelling. It will resolve with time. However, if you spend time in the sun, make sure to wear a good UVA/UVB sunscreen with a least an SPF of 30 to protect your skin.

Answer: Kybella and Sun Exposure Kybella always induces swelling but a sun burn can add to the swelling. Kybella is in no way phtotosensitizing and your results are not affected by the sun. I would use a burn cream now to help soothe the area and some cold compresses and Benadryl as well if you are swollen. Please consult a expert in Kybella for the best cosmetic results. Best, Dr. Green
