I got Kybella done about a year ago. Now my face is too gaunt and I appear not healthy(too thin). Can I add fat back under chin?

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan. It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hi Mike, Thanks for the question.  Sorry to hear about your disappointment, its a really great tool to use but if you do not have good skin quality (poor elasticity) than you can get the result you were talking about.  I would have loved to see a photo but there are options that can be used to correct this.  Certain injectables can be helpful and sometimes surgery is needed.  I highly recommend you consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon.  Best of luck.

I treat a great deal of patients whose main complaint is that their face looks too gaunt after losing weight.  There are a few options that work well.  Sculptra is one of my favorite treatments to help with this as it lays down a great collagen surface and provides support to the face. Other fillers such as Hyaluronic acid based products such as Juvederm Voluma and Restylane Lyft work very well.  Please consult an expert in facial contouring for the best cosmetic results. Best, Dr. Green
