Should I do Kybella or continue with Morpheus 8 to treat the fat around my jaw? (Photos)

Question

I've had lipo under my chin and did one round of Morpheus 8. I'm unhappy with the fat around my jaw. Should I do Kybella or continue with Morpheus 8?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

It takes a series of treatments to get good results with Kybella. Keep in mind, Kybella is good for dissolving the submental fat under the chin area while contouring the jawline and making the chin more defined, but a combination approach is needed to get the most improvement with non-invasive options. I recommend a combination approach with Thermage, Ultherapy, and Exilis.InMode FaceTite / AccuTite with VASER Neck Liposuction is the best option for contouring and tightening the chin, neck, and jawline area. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

You could either use Kybella or Coolsculpting as Morpheus is not really intended to reduce fat. Please contact a qualified provider or a board-certified physician with extensive experience in these procedures.

Michele S. Green, MD · Answer

Kybella and the Cool-mini from Coolsculpting are the best methods for treating fat around the neck.  Morpheus won't affect any change around your neck.  You need to have procedures that reduce the fat on the side of the neck.  Liposuction would also help and remove the fat that is remaining. Please consult an expert in fat reduction for the best cosmetic results. Best, Dr. Green
