Kybella 4 weeks ago. My MD used 2 & 1/2 vials (neck & jowls). She said I didn’t have much fat to begin with so I shouldn’t require a second treatment. She assured me I’d be very happy with my results. Is it possible this is still swollen? Hoping so because there’s NO definition. It’s much worse than before!

Answer: Kybella is a disappointing service. It is expensive and requires many sessions to make a difference. Look no further than the study that was the basis for its FDA approval. Investigators could offer up to 6 treatment sessions at one month intervals to achieve patient satisfaction. Approximately 60% of patients requires all 6 sessions and 40% were disappointed with the service. Your neck is likely still swollen. Consider neck liposuction. It is a very reliable method that only requires a single down time and your are likely to actually save money over continuing the Kybella treatment.

Answer: Wait a few more weeks before assessing your results. Kybella™ can take up to 12 weeks to produce final results, and even then, many people require 2 to 4 treatments sessions to maximize their outcome. Thus, at just four weeks after your first treatment, it’s very unlikely that you’re seeing your full results. You probably still have some swelling as well. I would wait a few more weeks to see if you start noticing an improvement. Good luck.
