Thank you for sharing your excellent question. Yes you can sun tan 24 hours after Kybella but best to keep the area protected with a sunblock of spf 30 and above. Hope this helps.
Kybella is an injectable product for the reduction of subcutaneous fat on the neck. The product works by breaking down the fat cells and leading to tissue contraction. The effects would not be helped or hurt by tanning. Best of luck.
Thank you for your question 150mmlover. Kybella is the first and thus-far only FDA-approved non-surgicalinjectable treatment for the double chin. Sun tanning is not a good idea for the skin as it can cause premature aging and skin cancer. However it should not affect the results of Kybella. Please consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!
Yes. You can sun tan 24 hours after Kybella treatment. Tanning is skin's response of damage so remember to use SPF 30+ sunblock.
Hello, and thanks for your question. Tanning is the skin's response to damage, and is a sign that your risk of cancer and premature aging is increasing. Therefore, please avoid tanning. Best of luck, Dr. Frucht.
Going tanning after Kybella will not affect the results of your treatment. Tanning comes with an increased risk for skin cancer, as many other physicians here have stated.
You may tan immediately after Kybella treatment but please keep in mind, the sun destroys collagen and elastin in your skin which are needed to keep a youthful appearance of your neck and all your skin. Tanning booths are not recommended as they may lead to higher incidence of skin cancer.
Hi and thanks for the question.In short, yes you may tan, although tanning causes accelerated skin aging, so think twice !Best of luck, Dr. Vallecillos
While you can go out into sun after Kybella, always remember to wear sunscreen to protect your skin.
No reason that you cannot go out into the sun. That being said be sun safe, and use a SPF 30+ broad-spectrum sunscreen with a wide brimmed hat and sunglasses!
Thank you for sharing your question. Unfortunately Kybella is not approved for use in lipomas and though physicians are using it for other off-label purposes, I would be concerned about placing Kybella into the forehead resulting in dissolving more fat than anticipated and a contour irr...
Great question! Swelling typically occurs one to two days after treatment with Kybella, and can last up to 1-2 weeks. The most commonly reported side effects are bruising, redness of the area and numbness, all of which subside spontaneously in a short period of time. Since it has only been 6 day...
Without a before and after picture it is hard to determine, but swelling after Kybella is normal for several weeks. Kybella can be used for localized areas but takes a number of treatments. It may be that you need contouring with a procedure like vaser lipo with thermiRF. See an expert. Bes...
Thank you for your question. Kybella works by dissolving fat cells which lie just below the skin under the chin and jawline. As the fat cells dissolve, this gives definition to the submental (under the chin) region. A side effect is swelling and numbness under the chin, but you should not ha...
Contour of the jawline is effected by 3 major aspects: submental fat, loss of bony jaw, and skin laxity. Submental fat can be treated by liposuction and non-invasives like Kybella and Coolsculpting. In your case, Kybella would likely make the biggest difference. Coolmini could work but giv...
