Healing can be variable and it can take several weeks for numbness and/or swelling to resolve. Keep in mind, a combination approach is needed to get the most improvement with non-invasive options like Kybella and some people need a series of treatments. I recommend Kybella with thermage, ultherapy, exilis. VASER liposuction in combination with ThermiRF is a great alternative for contouring the chin, if you're a candidate. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer
Numbness after Kybella may last for several weeks. Most patients may need 2-3 treatments typically 8 weeks apart. Swelling after the treatment may take up to 8 weeks to subside.

Hi mimi718,Unfortunately even if Kybella is effective, numbing may be prolonged for weeks. It does not have any untoward effects on your results. Like CoolSculpting, results are not visible immediately. Expect to see results by the 25th day.All the best, Justin Harper, M.D.

Hi there and thanks for your question and photos! As the other injectors have mentioned, it all depends. Some patients are swollen for the first 1-2 days, other for 1-2 weeks. Ultimately, the swelling will resolve regardless and results can be seen in 6-8 weeks. Hope this helps and best of luck!
