Is the swelling less the third time with Kybella as you have less fat?

I tell my patients to expect swelling and jiggling for 2-4 weeks. Numbness lasts about 6 weeks. And then there are lumps and bumps for up to 8 weeks as well. Swelling does not fully resolve for a few months so i don't re-inject for a few months.  With less material injected, there is less swelling.My best,Dr. Nazarian@drsheilanazarian on Instagram

Kybella
is a cytolytic drug, which when injected into tissue physically destroys the
cell membrane. When properly injected into submental fat, Kybella destroys fat
cells getting rid of unwanted double chin fat.

Bruising,
swelling and mild discomfort can be expected following your treatment. These
issues should resolve within 72 hours. You will be asked to avoid exercising
during this time and to take it easy in general. This is just a precautionary
measure to reduce overall bruising and swelling. Each session will be similar from our experience.#Kybellafatremoval   #doublechintreatments   #Kybelladestroysfat

Kybella
is a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, which is something naturally
produced in our own body. Deoxycholic acid produced in the body helps
absorb fat cells. Kybella is a cytolytic drug, which when injected into tissue
physically destroys the cell membrane. When properly injected into submental
fat, Kybella destroys fat cells getting rid of unwanted double chin fat.

Bruising,
swelling and mild discomfort can be expected following your treatment-- regardless of the number of times you have a treatment session.#Kybellaaftercare   #bruisingafterKybella  #Kybellafattreatment

Typically with each treatment less product is used due to the fact that there is less submental fat being treated.  With each treatment, you can usually expect less and less swelling.  Good luck and enjoy your Kybella results. 

Thank you for your question.  Yes you should experience diminished swelling with each session as you have less tissue and typically less product is used.

The swelling after Kybella is usually consistent with the volume injected and the number of syringes. It will not vary much from each session but is temporary and should resolve over the course of a few days.

Kybella swelling decreases each treatment due to less material used.  I find that pre treating with botox and following treatment with venus legacy will improve the swelling significantly.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Yes, you are correct, typically the most swelling occurs after the first "double chin" treatment with Kybella. Swelling after Kybella injection treatment typically lasts 5-10 days but can last up to 1 month.  In clinical trials, treatments were performed 4 weeks apart, but most physicians who have moe experiencing  performing Kybella treatments agree that it's better to space the treatments 6-8 weeks apart.  Treating physicians have noted that less swelling occurs after each successive treatment session.

That has been my experience. The swelling is actually a good thing. It means that the Kybella is destroying the fat cells. However, fewer fat cells should be less swelling.

You have to have swelling with Kybella to destroy the fat since this is the basis of the reaction.  There is no way to avoid the swelling but it may be less with each subsequent treatment as more fat is reduced.  Best, Dr. Green
