Due to illness and life events and the business of my surgeon's office, I may have to go 11 weeks between my 1st and 2nd treatment - is this acceptable? The first treatment showed very little difference (using 2 vials) - which I know is typical (but also very expensive). Can I go 11 weeks and expect success, or should I just give up, or try to find another provider? Thanks for your help.

Answer: Kybella 101 and Time Between Treatments I would not be worried about waiting 11 weeks until your next Kybella procedure. The timing between treatments is less important than the number of treatments. We Routinely wait more than 8 weeks between treatments and results can continue to be seen up to 6 months. It's a great treatment but in many cases takes time and additional injections to see desired results. Most of our patients need approximately 3 sessions of injections to see a nice reduction in the appearance of their double chin. Understanding the procedure is important. Kybella is a naturally occurring molecule that helps metabolize fat. It disrupts the fat cell membranes. As soon as it hits, it causes lysis - destroying the

Answer: Getting the results you want with Kybella, Thermage, Ultherapy, Vaser, ThermiRF It's o.k. to wait 6-8 weeks or more between treatments. However, for best results with Kybella, I recommend a combination approach with thermage/ultherapy/exilis. Another alternative would be VASER liposuction in combination with ThermiRF or ultrasound are best for contouring the chin, if you're a candidate. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
