Kybella price of $300 - Could the price of Kybella really be this cheap?

One vial of Kybella is typically $600 and is used to fill two syringes.  So $300 per syringe is the same as $600 per vial.  Most patients are going to need 2 vials for a treatment with some benefiting from 3.  And most patients are going to benefit from 2-4 treatments.  Kybella is purchased directly from Allergan and the provider sets the final price, just like with Botox and other injectibles.  The price charged reflects overhead/staff salaries/insurance costs/etc.  Most reputable providers have similar costs.  So I would be cautious about a price that seems significantly lower than the surrounding area.

I would clarify what exactly you are paying for.  A syringe is different than a vial.  Most patients will require at least 4 syringes, so this would balance out to about 1,200.  I would ask around and make sure you understand exactly how much you are going to be expected to pay.  There are a lot of ways to market a product to get you in the door, but then you will find out the real price once you are there.  Best of luck!

The cost of kybella is very high , unless they are giving this away free to him ... he will not be making anything off this treatment.  Best, Dr. Emer.
