Airsculpting or Kybella for double chin? (Photo)

Question

Hey i have a genetically fat neck and want it gone! I have previously had two vials of kybella and saw slight results, wondering if it would be worth it to get airsculpting lipo or continue with kybella? Also i have kinda chubby/ pre jowly lower cheeks, would that go away as the chin fat pad is sucked away or dissolved? Lmk :)

Harry T. Haramis, MD, FACS · Answer

Vaser ultrasound or Smart Lipo laser liposuction will best address your neck below the jawline for better contour. I treat the entire neck under the jaw. Kybella only goes in the central fat area below the chin.

We frequently perform this after previous kybella and/or CoolSculpting, etc to the neck.

It does not address jowls. Filler after the neck liposuction can be evaluated.

Neck liposuction can be performed quickly and easily under local.

An exam and consultation with a plastic surgeon who performs these procedures is recommended to confirm you are a candidate as well as discuss your options and expectations.

Leonardo Fasano, MD · Answer

Kybella takes longer, has results that vary and are, to some extent, unpredictable.Vaser Liposuction is much better. It is quicker and provides some level of skin tightening effect and is more precise as we physically remove the area's melted fat in a detailed fashion. It's important to assess these areas at a consultation in person.

Liposuction is the gold standard. Airsculpt  is a proprietary term owned by elite body  Sculpture.

I suggest having an in person consultation or consider talking to local board-certified plastic surgeons no they will not have Airsculpt unless you travel to an elite body sculpture center.

Best,
