I have had the buffalo hump for many years now, where c7 protrudes. It is genetic and my neck has always caused me pain. When I wear a halter top it presses down on the c7 and causes very bad headaches. If I get this buffalo hump removed will it help my neck pain and allow better neck movement? I have heard of kybella being an option for it as well as liposuction. Thoughts on either?

Answer: Liposuction or Kybella for treatment of buffalo hump? A buffalo hump is normally caused by excess fat in that area. I find that ultrasonic liposuction works best to reduce a buffalo hump. Kybella could potentially be used for that area, but it would be considered an off label use. Kybella normally involves several treatment sessions as well. Depending on the size of the buffalo hump, it is also possible that Kybella could cost more than ultrasonic liposuction. Reducing a buffalo hump usually does improve mobility of the neck. For some people, it helps with pain as well but that is not a guarantee.
