Yes, kybella really works. It works everytime on every patient as it's designed to permanently eliminate fat cells. The reason some patients do not get a result is because they are misleadingly told they only need 2 vials or only one treatment session. Kybella usually requires 2 treatment sessions and 2-4 vials to get a good result.
Kybella works, but only in the properly-selected patient and when performed over a series of treatments. I do not even offer Kybella in a one-time treatment. Patients need to commit to at least two treatments before proceeding. Kybella works best for dissolving excess fat in the submental area, and is not very effective at tightening the muscle layers under the skin or the skin itself.Be sure to see an expert physician injector who specializes in facial aesthetic procedures.All the best,
Thank you for the question. Yes it works and is FDA approved for treatment of a "double chin". We inject Kybella, a synthetic version of naturally occurring deoxycholic acid, below the skin. It dissolves and removes the excess fat. You’ll see some results after the first treatment, but to get the best results, we recommend two to five treatments.As always, an in-person consultation with a board certified dermatologist with cosmetic training is the best way to assess your needs and provide medical advice.
Yes...Kybella works! It is made of deoxycholic acid, and works by dissolving fat cells. You will immediately see the effects of this fat dissolving action, as your under chin area will begin to feel very "jiggly" and you will have some slight swelling as this chemical reaction takes place. As for downtime, there really isn't much. You will typically have swelling in the area for a few days, and it is possible to have slight bruising. The full effect of the treatment isn't typically evident for about 8-10 weeks, and treatments should be scheduled about 8-10 weeks apart. To be sure, see two or more experienced, licensed and board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.
Kybella was extensively studied prior to its FDA approval. Because Kybella is a medication vs. a laser procedure, its efficacy has to be demonstrated in many patients and the degree of improvement has to be far greater than laser procedures in order to receive FDA approval.Kybella wouldn't have received FDA approval for moderate to severe submittal fullness if it didn't work. In my experience both in its use and as a clinical trainer in its proper use by other physicians treatments have failed to match those results seen in the patients submitted for FDA approval due to improper technique. In addition, 2 to 4 treatments are required. One treatment will not give you optimal results.
KYBELLA® is used to improve the appearance and profile of moderate tosevere fat below the chin --often referred to as a “double chin .Up until now the only option for fat removal under the chin was liposuction or surgically removing the fat by cutting it out. Kybella is the first ever non-surgical option for dissolving double chin fat. Dr. Derek Jones, an associate clinical professor of dermatology at UCLA stated “upwards of 80% of people [with double chins] are concerned about the condition.”( Dr. Jones was the lead investigator in a study)We have had tremendous patient satisfaction , with noticable results within 2-4 weeks after treatments.#Kybellatreatments #submentalchinfat #fatremovaltreatments
KYBELLA® is used to improve the appearance and profile of moderate tosevere fat below the chin --often referred to as a “double chin .Most times, only 1,2 or 3 treatments are needed to permanently remove fat beneath the chin!The most common side effects of KYBELLA®include : swelling, bruising,pain, numbness, redness, and areas of hardness in the treatment area. Similar to any other injectable treatment, this can easily be minimizedby avoiding over-the-counter medications and supplements such as Ibuprofen (Motrin or Advil), baby aspirin, fish oils, Vitamin E and green tea. We alsooffer an analgesic for mild discomfort and swelling and send patients home withice packs and a chin strap to improve the recovery time!#doublechintreatments # Kybellaforfat #submentalchinfat
You’re right! Because Kybella is relatively new, there has been a lot of buzz surrounding its release. I have seen first-hand the amazing results that this product can produce. Kybella has been FDA approved for use in the submental region to help dissolve the fat that causes a “double chin”. It usually takes 3-4 treatments to see the optimal result and it’s best to space out treatments 4 weeks apart. If you are considering Kybella treatments, I recommend having a consultation with a board certified physician to make sure that you are a good candidate. The ideal candidate for Kybella has significant submental fat and excellent skin elasticity.
Kybella is very effective for the right candidate for treatment of submental fullness. A thorough exam and consultation is necessary by a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to determine if you are an ideal candidate. The perfect candidate for non-surgical chin contouring with Kybella Injections has well-defined moderate to severe submental fat and has moderate to excellent skin elasticity. It is possible to need multiple treatments and Kybella does not treat loose skin or platysmal bands. A comprehensive consultation will be necessary to evaluate your individual chin and jawline concerns.
I appreciate your question.Yes, Kybella does work but it does require multiple treatments. So you may also want to consider liposuction.The best way to assess and givetrue advice would be an in-person exam.Please see a board-certifiedplastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.Best of luck!Dr. Schwartz
Thank you for asking many good questions. Kybella really works and the results are permanent. The amount of treatments depend on the severity of submental fat present. Some patients need a single treatment, some need 2, while others need good 4-6 treatments. The bottom line...
Asidefrom its effectiveness, Kybella is also popular even though the treatment canbe expensive. As for your question, I am uncertain if the price will actuallygo down considerably. It has been expensive for a few years now and based onthe trends, it will not seem to go down as much even in the...
Kybella is a form of a liver salt that is synethic and works to damage fat cells when it is injected into them. In the clinical trials, 2 treatments a month apart had close to 50% improvement in fat reduction with some neck skin tightening/lifting (but this was a secondary outcome). More...
