I had my first Kybella treatment 4wks ago. My 2nd treatment is in a few weeks. Can I expect the recovery (swelling) to be the same, less than the rust treatment or worse?
Answer: Swelling after Kybella Inflammation and swelling expected following each Kybella treatment. We do often find that swelling is slightly less with each subsequent treatment, though swelling cannot be avoided entirely. With each treatment, there is less fat for the Kybella to target which typically results in slightly less swelling. This is a generalization in my experience with Kybella but is not always the case. Consult with your board certified plastic surgeon or injector before pursuing Kybella to ensure this is the right treatment option for you.

Answer: Kybella and swelling Typically our patients report less discomfort and swelling following the initial treatment with Kybella. Patience is a must with Kybella because it takes much time and several treatments to really appreciate and see the final results. Improvement can be variable between patients. If you want more immediate results with less discomfort and swelling liposuction is a better way to go. There are skin tightening options as well. Good luck

Answer: Swelling after Kybella and Improving Results--add thermage, ultherapy, exilis, VASER, ThermiRF Swelling can be typical after Kybella and can take several weeks to resolve. welling can be improved with venus legacy and lymphatic massage. It can take 6-8 weeks to start to see results with Kybella. To improve Kybella results, I recommend a combination approach with thermage, ultherapy, exilis. VASER liposuction in combination with ThermiRF is an alternative for contouring the chin, if you're a candidate. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Degree of Swelling after Kybella Second Treatment and Beyond The general consensus is that post-treatment swelling and redness is the worst after the first Kybella treatment and gets better during the later treatments, assuming the quantity injected is the same. This may be because there is less fat to dissolve with each subsequent treatment. In other words, your recovery should not be worse than the first treatment.. but there are always exceptions to the rule! Hope this helps!

Answer: Swelling after 2nd Treatment I would expect your experience with the second treatment to be very similar to the first treatment. I typically recommend patients wait 6-8 weeks- 4 weeks is the minimum- in between treatments. We do find with each treatment the swelling can be less severe than the time before. Each time you are treating there is less fat to the area.
