I’m a healthy body weight but have always struggled with a little extra fat under my chin, and would like to have more definition (as well as improved chin projection). What treatment(s) would you recommend to achieve a more refined profile? Thank you!
Answer: Kybella Candidate Both Kybella or neck liposuction are good options and will improve the double chin. Chin filler or implants can improve projection. It depends on your lifestyle and personality which would be better for you. Kybella is best for patients that: 1) Do not want surgery 2) Are not surgical candidates 3) Not willing to wear a compression dressing around the face for 1 week 4) Patient- The results of Kybella will take months Kybella take 1-3 treatments every 6 weeks. Patient will develop swelling and possible bruising after each injection that may last a few days. The benefit of Kybella is each treatment is quick and completed in the office. Neck Liposuction is best for patients that: 1) Want a single treatment 2) One recovery time- Downtime for neck liposuction require wearing a wrap around face for 1 week. 3) Less painful 4) Quicker results 5) Cost is a concern Neck liposuction is a quick surgical procedure that can be complete while the patient is awake. It cost around the same price a Kybella and can be less in patients with heavier necks. The single recovery of neck liposuction may be a better option for some patients. I hope this helps.

Answer: Kybella vs chin filler? I think you can reduce submental fat by getting Kybella injections and fillers like Juvaderm, Restylane or Radiesse for chin projection.

Answer: Kybella Results--add thermage, ultherapy, exilis, VASER, ThermiRF Kybella is good for dissolving fat under the chin, but a combination approach is needed to get the most improvement with non-invasive options. I recommend Kybella with thermage, ultherapy, exilis. VASER liposuction in combination with ThermiRF is a great alternative for contouring the chin. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: What treatments? Thanks for your question. I’m leaning towards Kybella, but realize you need a formal in-person consultation to determine the best approach! Kybella melts the fat under the chin and can improve the facial contours extremely well. Good luck.

Answer: Kybella and chin filler for improved profile Kybella would help with the fat below the chin and a hyaluronic acid based filler like Restylane Lyft would help with chin definition. The combination of both would also improve jawline definition. I think the combination treatment will work best.
