What would happen if it got into a vein? There is a small bruise in the area. I have read about complications with dermal fillers and I am really worried.
Answer: Kybella Thank you for your question in regards to Kybella. It is common to have bruising in the injection sites. Contact your privder if you have further concerns to follow up. To be sure, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Answer: Bruising after Kybella Thanks for your question. Mild bruising is somewhat normal after Kybella, which typically resolves over the first week. There are small vessels in the skin that can be injured with the needle from injecting the product. If you have concerns about your results I would advise you to return to the doctor who performed the injection for evaluation. Best of luck!

Answer: I have just had a second treatment of Kybella. Does bleeding at injection area mean that a vein was punctured? Bleeding and bruising at the injection site only means that a vein was punctured with the needle. The issues you bring up with fillers are related to intra-arterial injections, not injections into a vein. Even if your Kybella injection at this one spot were into the vein, it is unlikely to cause any problem due to the small amount of product injected. It would just get diluted out once it entered your bloodstream.Your best solution is to follow up with your injector and let them look at you.

Answer: Kybella or any injection can cause a bruise As your doctor should have explained to you, bruising is a common potential side effect after any injection, including after fillers, Kybella or even Botox. The risk increases if you are also getting lidocaine injected for anesthesia, which as a Kybella instructor, I train other doctors to do before giving Kybella injections, it makes it much more comfortable.

Answer: Bruising after Kybella Thank you for your question Schatten. I understand your concern. Kybella is the first and thus-far only FDA-approved non-surgical injectable treatment for the double chin. With any injection bruising is possible. Bruises typically resolve on their own in 1-2 week.s We treat our patients with a laser as early as the next day. This usually makes the bruise resolve in 1-3 days. Bruising does not affect the final results of Kybella. Please consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!
