Does drinking alcohol (moderate or excessive) affect the result of Kybella during the weeks the deoxycholic acid is working?

As a physician, I can’t recommend excessive drinking for any reason, whether you’re getting Kybella or not. If you eat well and drink moderately, then your lymph system should be able to process the fat melted by deoxycholic acid in Kybella injections. Consulting a board-certified dermatologist will help you understand the process better and get truly stunning results with Kybella.

Thank you for
your question chloelattman. I understand your concern. Kybella is the first and
thus-far only FDA-approved non-surgical injectable treatment for the double
chin. I recommend that my patients avoid alcohol consumption for 24 hours after a treatment as alcohol consumption can bring blood to the skin and possible exacerbate any swelling. It is important to maintain a healthy diet and consume alcohol in moderation. Please
consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!

Assuming that you are in good health with a functioning liver then no, drinking alcohol should not affect your Kybella results. Having said that, it is always smart to follow a sensible diet, one not high in excess fat or alcoholic beverages. Better for your skin, your waistline and your health.Kindly,Kouros Azar
