After the burning and bullfrogging, I am left with something more horrifying: my entire lower jaw feels like it is being pulled on. Smiling now gives me an overbite because the lower half of my mouth is having difficulty meeting up with the upper half. When I speak, one of my lips is drooping. Please tell me this is temporary. Note: The pain was excruciating, and I was sobbing throughout. Could the Dr. have "misfired" because the crying was making me move too much?

Answer: Kybella Dear tasukibeth1,I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment. Only after thorough examination you can get proper recommendations and advice.Kybella typically takes 3 to 5 treatments to work. This is why I've stopped carrying Kybella in my office. I recommend neck liposuction more often then any injectable procedure for the neck now. It provides superior results gives me more control over the area than any injectable. It also costs about the same as what you paid for your first kybella session. The liposuction can be done under local while awake in the office and recovery is about the same as kybella.Daniel Barrett, MD Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, American Society of Plastic Surgery Member, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
