Answer: How many kybella treatments?? Ask Dr. Ellen... Great question! Kybella is a simple in office procedure that involves a series on injections to the submental area. The product that is injected is an acid that breaks down the fat cells permanently. During the injections it is common to feel a burning sensation, and this may last for several hours post treatment. The area is typically tender to touch, and swollen for about 2 weeks. I recommend doing 3-4 treatments about 6 weeks apart for optimal results. In Good Health,Dr. Ellen Mahony

Answer: Kybella Overview Kybella is an injectable medication that dissolves fat cells in the submental (double chin) area. It is effective, but takes at least 2 treatments. Many patients will go on to have 3-4 total treatments. There is minimal downtime, but patients will have swelling of the submental area that in some cases can be quite noticeable initially and might take several weeks to fully resolve. Injection sessions are usually spaced 4-6 weeks apart, and the results are permanent, just like with liposuction.Be sure to see an expert physician injector who specializes in facial aesthetic procedures.All the best,
