Bruising after Belkyra (Kybella), is this normal?

Hi and thank you for your question.
This is a lot of bruising and should be checked soon. Follow your aftercare advice and use indirect ice and pressure till you are checked.
Hope this helps and wishing you all the best,

Thank you for your question!  Yes, it is certainly possible to have some bruising and some swelling after Kybella injection.  The bruising should be temporary, although the swelling under the chin can last some time longer.  Typically, we will not see bruising, which extends to the clavicles.  If this worsens, I would contact your injector.  I hope that this helps!-David Gilpin

Thank you for your question. There are a few side effects to the treatment, but redness, bruising and minor swelling can be expected. It is vital, however, that patients choose a provider who is well trained and experienced, to avoid more serious complications. Always work with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.
Best wishes,

Yes, it is certainly possible to bruise after these kinds of treatments.  As a matter of fact, anytime a needle is used, it is safe to assume to bruising is a possibility.  There are ways to expedite the resolution of bruising such as the use of a laser soon after you see it and of course bruising is always temporary.  Best of luck!

Thank you for sharing your question.  Bruising after Kybella is not uncommon and tends to be mild in severity.  You can help clear the bruising with cold compresses, arnica montana/bromelain supplementation, and eating dark leafy green vegetables.  Hope this helps.

Yes. Some patients experience post treatment bruising following a Kybella injection. It will resolve with time. Taking arnica may speed up the process if you want to give that a try.

Kybella is a great injection to permanently reduce the fat under the chin. Swelling, redness, nodules, and bruising call all happen after Kybella injections. We often have patients return for V-Beam laser (pulsed dye laser) to treat redness or bruising post-injection.  Please consult a board certified dermatologist with experience with Kybella for the best cosmetic results.  Best, Dr. Green

Thank you for
your question kate.palmer. I understand your concern. Kybella is the first and
thus-far only FDA-approved non-surgical injectable treatment for the double
chin. Bruising is possible with any injection and the bruise can extend farther from the site of injection. We treat bruises with a laser as early as the next day to make them resolve faster. Untreated bruises typically resolve by 1-2 weeks. Please
consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!

Hello, 
Thanks for the question. Bruising is not that uncommon given you are having injections in the soft tissues, but I have not come across bruising extending anteriorly into the clavicles and sternum. Being on a blood thinner may make this more possible. The bruising that has descended to your upper chest is due to gravity. I would let your practitioner know of this. 
Hope this helps, 

Dr. David 

Although bruising is not the norm, anytime a needle is used to inject any substance under the skin there is a chance for bruising. On the neck these bruises almost always appear just above the clavicle just as yours have. No worries. It will resolve soon.
