How did Kybella make my face so small and how do I stop my face from continually shrinking?

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.

Kybella is an injectable treatment primarily used to reduce the appearance of a double chin by dissolving fat cells in that area. It doesn’t make your entire face smaller; its effects are typically localized to the chin and jawline. If you’re concerned about changes in the size or shape of your face, it’s important to consult with a medical professional. Face size is influenced by various factors including genetics, aging, and overall health, so they can provide guidance on maintaining a balanced appearance or addressing specific concerns.

Kybella is a fabulous injection for the submental area. I have never seen the events you are describing and I would post before and after photos and return immediately to your treating physician for examination. Please keep us posted. For the best cosmetic results please consult an expert in Kybella. Best, Dr.  Green

i'm not a fan of this treatment at all. Everything about it seems wrong and complications like what you describe confirm this.  In your case it sounds like the treatment was simply too effective.  At this point there's no way to slow down or reverse the process. I suggest giving it six months then reassessing.  If your facial fed volume loss is severe enough that it needs to be treated then you're in for a challenge.  A proper assessment should look at skeletal structure, skin muscle and fat.  If simple volume replacement is what's needed then your options will be fillers or fat transfer. Since you live in New York I would suggest looking into Sidney Coleman MD at Tribeca plastic surgery. He's one of the pioneers of fat transfer especially facial fat transfer. He has a lot of experience including taking care of undesirable outcomes from other treatments.  Fed transfer may or may not be an appropriate option for you. At this point I can't think of anything other than being patient and waiting at least six months.  Perhaps sharing with the real self community about the potential disasters this treatment could end up delivering would serve others so other people will not have to go through the same thing. Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
