My first treatment I did 2 vials. This time around I did 3. WAY more swelling and pain. 6 weeks out my chin is still slightly sensitive to pressure (like rubbing I can feel a sore spot), and the double chin is there as much as ever. I'm not even sure I'm down to where I was after the first treatment. When will I start seeing a decrease? Is it possible it didn't work? I thought I saw a slight decrease after the first round, and now I'm not so sure.
Answer: Kybella results Hi Cath7680, 2 vials versus 3 vials is definitely more sensitive. Since you still feel sensitivity you have remaining inflammation from the treatment and your body is still recovering. It takes 3-6 months for everything to settle down and the sensitivity to resolve. I'm not sure if the second treatment was your last one, but I would wait a little longer than 8 weeks to do your third treatment. You should also go back and compare your before and after photos as the swelling makes people forget how they looked before the treatment. Hope this helps. Best,Dr.Avaliani

Answer: Kybella Results--add thermage, ultherapy, exilis, VASER, ThermiRF It can take 6-8 weeks to start to see results with Kybella. To improve Kybella results, 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. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Welcome to Kybella treatment. Kybella is really only for patients who never, never want surgery and for doctors who do not know how to perform liposuction. Neck liposuction is one of the most reliable cosmetic procedures out there. It is performed very comfortably under local anesthesia or light intravenous sedation. The procedure takes less than an hour. It is amazingly comfortable. Within about 4 days, most folks can't tell that you just had a procedure. The swelling is minimal and by 4 to 6 weeks the result is cleared. Contrast this to Kybella. Sixty percent of patients need 6 sessions of Kybella. Even then only about 60 of patients are satisfied with the treatment result. I don't need to tell you that Kybella is expensive. For less expense, you can have neck liposuction with less discomfort and a more satisfying treatment result.

Answer: When to see results after Kybella? It frequently takes more than two Kybella treatment sessions to obtain the desired result. So far, I have not seen anyone not respond to the treatment. I would discuss your results thus far with the physician who treated you. You should look at the pictures that were taken before your treatment and compare them with pictures taken now after your second treatment. It is also possible that not enough Kybella was used for your injection. An exam is really needed to determine how much is needed.
