I had my second injection of Kybella done almost two weeks ago and I'll be trying to get pregnant after this last injection. Would two weeks be enough time for the acid to be mostly gone from the body or should I wait longer? I noticed that it's been almost two weeks now and the area is no longer tender and the swollen is gone. Thank you
Answer: Kybella Facts and Pregnancy It takes 6-8 weeks to get results with Kybella, however, it won't interfere with your ability to get pregnant. If you remain concerned, I recommend following up with a Doctor. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: How long does Kybella stay in the body for? Thank you for your question. While the areas treated with Kybella can continue to have changes for 6-8 weeks after treatment, these effects are localized. The medication is not injected into the blood stream so there are negligible systemic effects (if any) to the medication. In other words, your Kybella treatment should have absolutely no bearing on your ability to get pregnant. That being said, there have been no studies on pregnancy and Kybella because these studies would be unrealistic to perform to know for sure. Hope this helps!

Answer: How long does Kybella stay in my body? Thank you for your question. Kybella is deoxycholic acid, which is a natural acid made in our liver and stored in our gallbladder. It gets released into stomach after we eat a fatty meal to help us break down the fat. Kybella is simply the same product purified and then stored in vials to be injected in parts of the body where there is excess fat. Since it has been more than 2 weeks since your treatment, It is totally safe to try and get pregnant now. Good luck. Best.Dr.Avaliani

Answer: Kybella and pregnancy Thank you for your question pandaissues. Kybella is the first and thus-far only FDA-approved non-surgical injectable treatment for the double chin. The results of a Kybella treatment are seen 2-3 months after the treatment. The product itself is thought to be cleared by the body in under one hour. If I had a patient who wanted to get pregnant and have Kybella I would recommend that she complete her series of treatments 3 months prior to trying to get pregnant. This is to be conservative as the safety and efficacy of Kybella in pregnant women has not been established. Please consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!
