I am thinking about getting kybella. Do I have enough fat on my chin for it to be worth it? (Photo)

Hi, it appears you have some fat but I'm not sure if kybella alone will give you the photoshop look.  In your after look, it appears you may be looking for a chin implant with some submental fat reduction.  It's best to show the pictures to your surgeon to discuss the best course of action.  

Without examining you it is difficult to be certain but based On the photos there is no way the cost and risks associated with Kybella would be worth it for you. The photoshopped image is not an achievable result as it would require removing important structures on your mouth. Your neck looks great right now, I would stop worrying about it. Hth

Kybella is a new injectable
approved by the FDA for the treatment of moderate to severe fat under the chin;
double chin. Up until now the only option for fat removal under the chin was
liposuction or surgically removing the fat by cutting it out.  A consultation with a skilled Kybella-trained provider will help determine if you are a candidate for the Kybella injections.#doublechintreatments   #Kybelladestroysfat   #Kybellatreatments

Based on photo you posted you do not seem to need any correction. However, a physical exam would be prudent. If you are a candidate you would likely need only 1-2 treatments.BestDr. Hooman Khorasani

I am a national trainer for kybella and have done many younger patients, we have a special combination using kybella with radiofrequency treatments to improve the results and get results quicker with less medication. I suggest you see an expert to determine what your best candidate is.  Dr. Emer.

Thank you for
your question amandam92. I understand your concern. Kybella is the first and
thus-far only FDA-approved non-surgical injectable treatment for the double
chin. If I had a patient who looked like the person in this photograph I would say she is a good candidate for Kybella treatments. Please
consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!

This is tricky. I don't believe that you could achieve your photoshopped look, but you may be able to achieve something close. It's really going to come down to your expectations and managing them properly. Hope this helps.Kindly,Kouros Azar

It is very difficult to tell from the photo if you have enough fat to make the procedure "worth it". I don't think that you could achieve the definition from the photoshopped photo.  I would suggest an in office consultation with an expert.  Best, Dr. Green

Thanks for the question and photos.  It looks like you may have over resected a little bit on your neck in terms of what Kybella could accomplish.  I would recommend an in-person exam with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine if the fullness you demonstrate in the photo would be improved with Kybella.  If so, then you would most likely be a good candidate.  Best of luck!
