Kybella or chin liposuction?

Dear sk22561,
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.  It also costs about the same as what you paid for your first kybella session. The liposuction can be done under local while awake in the office and recovery is about the same as kybella.

This is a very common question. The answer will depend on the amount of fat currently in your neck. (Photos are helpful.) If the amount is significant, there is a chance that you will have resulting skin laxity, especially with liposuction. The effect of Kybella will be more minimal in both fat decrease and skin laxity creation. We perform neck liposuction through needle holes (like a 16G syringe hole) to prevent scarring. Be sure to find a fully-trained plastic surgeon to do your liposuction procedure, if you go that route.
