2nd Kybella treatment 2 months ago now my neck looks "bumpy" when I look up. (Photos)

That inflammation takes much longer than 2 months to resolve.  The lumps and bumps are part of that healing process.  This will take many months to fully resolve.  You don't need unnecessary, ineffective cosmetic procedures to address these bumps.  Time alone will likely take care of these.  I personally have not been impressed with Kybella.  It is a disappointing, expensive service that takes too long to accomplish.  Lower face neck liposuction is much more effective and with a much faster recovery period.  I think Kybella is a bummer and does not live up to the hype.

Dear csummerskill,Kybella typically takes 3 to 5 treatments to work. This is why I've stopped carrying Kybella in my office.  I recommend neck liposuction more often then any injectable procedure for the neck now. It provides superior results gives me more control over the area than any injectable. The liposuction can be done under local while awake in the office and recovery is about the same as kybella.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

It's difficult to tell from your pictures. This needs an in-person evaluation. Kybella is good for dissolving fat under the chin, but a combination approach is needed to get the most improvement with non-invasive options. I recommend Kybella with thermage, ultherapy, exilis. VASER liposuction in combination with ThermiRF and a neck lift is an alternative for contouring the chin and can address skin laxity. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist.

Thank you for your question and photos.We commonly see induration or firm bumps under the skin after kybella treatments.  Massage and time help these to resolve.Best wishes,Dr. Kavali

This is not unusual after Kybella injection and usually resolves on its own. Our injectors promote massage to this area, however you should continue follow up with your provider.  Hope it goes soon!

Inflammation and associated lumps and bumps can be seen after Kybella treatment and usually takes 4-6 weeks to resolve. In some cases it can take a little longer. I recommend you followup with your injector to discuss you concerns although I believe the inflammation will resolve on its own over the next few weeks. 

Hello,Already 2 treatments and 2 months gone from the last one.Although still possible to see some improvement but it may not happen, considering the timing and looking at your photos. Kybella is ONLY for sub mental area. It takes on average 3 injections to see the results. if you have any fat beyond sub mental area then Kybella is not the choice.It is absolutely important choosing the right modality for your concern. Liposuction is better choice, quick recovery, and results within days, and tackle the fat in jowl area too. ultimately the cost may be less than whole Kybella treatment.You may wait another month then consult with a physician doing Liposuction as well as Kybella and come up with a plan what would be the best approach for you.All the BestRay Bayati, MDElite Medical AestheticsSacramento Area, California

 Thanks for your question. From your photo this appears to be post treatment inflammation which is normal and can take several more months to resolve, but I would always recommend speaking with your  physician. Also some light massage to the area may be useful as well. The treatment and inflammatory period can last for several months which is totally normal and expected from the Kybella treatment. Best wishes. 

Thank you for your question. I believe that this is likely still due to inflammation and slight swelling - the Kybella will help eliminate the fat, but through an inflammatory process - so, you will likely have some nodules and irregularities which can last for a number of months post-procedure. I would normally suggest a light massage to the area, but I would suggest speaking with your injector prior to starting any regimen. Best of luck!
