I'm thinking about getting Kybella injections to decrease sub mental fat but I think a lot of the results look 'tame'. Can Kybella give a truly dramatic transformation in the chin-neck slope and produce an acute angle like some liposuction cases?

Answer: Can Kybella Produce Dramatic Results That Look Identical To Facial Liposuction? The short answer to the question is SOMETIMES.Kybella is excellent at removing fat, and people who have minimal to moderate fat centrally located in the submental area do as well with Kybella as they would with liposuction. Choosing the right plastic surgeon who has both experience with facial liposuction and Kybella will give you the best possible results with either procedure.Kybella has less potential complications and is less operator sensitive, i.e. is easier for non-surgeons to get a reasonable result. Obviously, since I am a surgeon, I believe plastic surgeons get the best result with either procedure. BTW, the second group of pictures that you sent show a woman who had liposuction of the neck and a chin implant. Therefore, your pictures don't compare apples to apples. I have never tried Kybella with a chin implant, but I bet the results will be close to the ones you showed.

Answer: Double Chin Treatment / Laxity-- SmartLipo/VASER/ThermiRF, Botox, Venus Legacy, Kybella, CoolMini Kybella works but it is very tough to get a lipo like result with this product. If you are looking for that, please see a VASER / ThermiRF expert. Best, Dr. Emer.
