I have had a consultation for Kybella for a rather small fat pocket under chin. The doctor advised I would likely need 1 treatment with 2 vials. My question is, would the treatment be more effective, 2 smaller dose, or one large dose: 2 treatments - 1 vial each treatment 1 treatment - 2 vials at once Many thanks
Answer: Kybella dosage Honestly, without assessing you in person, it is impossible to say. In general, I rarely use less than 2 vials on a patient. You might want to get a second in person opinion from another experienced injector in your neighborhood and see if the recommendations line up.

Answer: Kybella Dosage and Treatments Thank you for your question. It's difficult to make exact recommendations without assessing you in-person, or at least reviewing your photos. That said, generally speaking, I find that many injectors have a tendency to underdose Kybella, either to reduce the potential for swelling or to reduce treatment costs. I find that this often leads to less than satisfactory results, and requires more treatments overall. As a result, I generally prefer to use higher doses per treatment (often 3+ vials per session). Keep in mind that most patients will need 2-4 treatment sessions for best results, and that it took up to 6 sessions in the initial scientific studies. Best of luck!
