I've had two kybella treatments and am very happy with my results, but am really looking to get a defined jaw. Do I need any further fat removal treatments or have I reached a point where all I need is chin fillers/chin implant to solve the problem? Around 5'4 and 122lbs with double chins running in my family. Thanks!
Answer: Kybella Results--add thermage, ultherapy, exilis, VASER, ThermiRF There are a few options. For best results with Kybella, I recommend a combination approach with thermage, ultherapy, exilis. VASER liposuction in combination with ThermiRF is an alternative for contouring the chin, if you're a candidate. PDO nova threads can further improve the jawline, while a chin implant would give more definition. See an expert. Best. Dr. Emer

Answer: Kybella vs. chin augmentation It's hard to determine in the pictures that you show whether there is any residual fat to treat - kybella works great, but remember, it only works if there is fat to get rid of. Otherwise, it will do nothing but cause swelling and possible complications. The best way to determine whether you would benefit from completing a series of treatments with the kybella would be with a physical examination. Bring this up to your doc and they will be able to help guide you. However, more kybella will not give your chin any more projection and further definition of the jawline. What I'm trying to get at here is that there needs to be a detailed discussion over what your goals are and what each procedure can accomplish. I hope some of this helps! Best of luck.

Answer: Kybella I would complete an entire series of Kybella: estimate 5 single vial treatments; before considering genioplasty.

Answer: Chin implant vs Kybella Thanks for the question and the images. Your photos demonstrate that you have pleasing shadowing along your jaw line and only mild laxity of the soft tissue beneath your chin. Additional kybella, or treatments to tighten your skin, such as ultherapy, will only produce subtle changes. If you are looking for additional improvements to your jawline and profile, you should consider a chin implant. If you are hesitant, a trial of dermal fillers could be entertained to give you a preview of the results. Good luck as you consider your options.
