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

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.

Kybella runs about $600 a vial so my guess is that your surgeon is charging you for 1/2 a vial. However, check with the office to find out for certain.Kindly,Kouros Azar

Thanks for your question. It’s
best to consult with a board certified dermatologist when seeking treatment to
avoid potential problems. If it sounds to good to be true, then it may be.
Better to reference certifications before price. Hope this helps. Best, Dr. Katz

Hello, and thanks for your question. If this is the price per 2cc vial, then the doctor would be losing money by doing the procedure, as that barely covers the cost of the product, let alone staff salaries and everything else that goes into overhead. In order to determine the best treatment plan for you, I recommend an in-person consultation with a well-trained dermatologist or plastic surgeon. Best of luck, Dr. Frucht.   

I can't speak for what others are charging in their practice. However, I can tell you the average cost of injection per Kybella treatment(this includes two vials) is between $1,000-$1400 in the region of Washington, DC. 

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.

Perhaps when they say it is $300 per syringe they mean that each 1cc syringe is $300.  The typical dose used per treatment is 4cc.  Call you doctor to double check what they mean by "one syringe"

Hello NaturalGirl1000,Kybella comes in a 2 cc vial and most people sell it by the vial because it is not a multidose vial.  So, yes, 1 cc will be drawn up for 300 and the second for another 300 which brings your price per vial to 600 which is in line with the 600-650 that Kybella usually retails for.  This is my two cents but since that price as a little misleading to the consumer, I would be very wary about going to that injector.  I'd recommend you consult with a core aesthetic injector such as a facial plastic surgeon to go over whether you are a candidate, the expected number of vials, and expected number of treatments to determine your costs.I hope this helps and good luck.  

The price of Kybella varies from one region to another. Unlike fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane, Voluma, Radiesse, and Belotero which come in syringes, Kybella comes in vials. Each vial hold 2 cc and two vials or 4 cc are typically used per treatment. Before injection Kybella is transferred into syringes which are used for injection. With Kybella most people require two to four treatments, sometimes up to six treatments. So I recommend planning for an investment of at least two treatments.There may be a confusion or distinction between syringes and treatments. I recommend talking with your doctor to clarify. Good luck!

Thank you for your question. Kybella comes in a 2cc vial. The average patient may need approximately 4 vials. I would recommend to ask your physician for some clarification on pricing and the amount of Kybella they are recommending for you.
