I had the Kybella injection 3 days ago and I am still swollen and now my neck jiggles. I was told by my doctor that this is normal and I did not have that much fat to begin with. I received 5.8 a total of 28 injections. I am very concerned because I am having an engagement party on Feb 7th. Will this every get better.

Answer: Kybella and the "Jiggly" Factor Kybella swelling can last up to a week - in some cases a little longer. Because your body is doing the work of removing the fat (unlike liposuction), how quickly this happens is very individual. Some people have very quick resolution of swelling in a couple days, but there is no way to predict for any individual patient.We recommend that patients take into account the expected swelling and potential bruising and how those side effects could affect their social plans.Kybella typically takes more than one session. It's easier for women to hide the transient swelling with scarves or clothing. The "jiggly" aspect can be a little disconcerting if you aren't expecting it. But it is part of the process.

Answer: Kybella Thank you for your photo and and question. First, know that you are still in the very early stages of your post treatment and it will get better. The jiggles are not noticeable however, it is normal to have swelling, pain, numbness, redness, and areas of hardness in the treatment area. In our practice we use Kybella treatment with trusculpt.KYBELLA® is a prescription medicine used in adults to improve the appearance and profile of moderate to severe fat below the chin (submental fat), also called “double chin.”

Answer: Fat in the right places It is funny that you call it "jiggling". Patients always comment on this aspect of kybella but I never know what to refer to it as. I call it pendulous. It is the fact that this area is very mobile and gets indurated after treatment. It can last up to about 10 days, but should start to resolve day by day. Hope this helps.Best of luck,DrC
