Can Kybella be injected deep into the submental area to target fat behind the platysma?

Dear Dan8595,
Kybella typically takes 3 to 5 treatments to work. This is why I've stopped carrying Kybella in my office.  I recommend neck liposuction more often then any injectable procedure for the neck now. It provides superior results gives me more control over the area than any injectable.  It also costs about the same as what you paid for your first kybella session. The liposuction can be done under local while awake in the office and recovery is about the same as kybella.

It is not indicated for deeper fat as it can hurt the nerves and cause nerve weakness for a long time. RegardsDr. J

FDA approval is for fat reduction above the platysma using Kybella. Using Kybella is a challenge when trying to reduce fat layers above the platysma let alone below.
