Kybella for Off-label Use Arm Pit/axilla 31 Years Old - Atlanta, GA

WORTH IT$1,200
I've always hated wearing tank tops because of the fat that seemed to pour over my bra line on the side. I've had lipo done in my armpit to define my armpit (while I was doing a breast revision surgery) and had great results, but it didn't fix the front view.
So of course I'm going to the best practice in Atlanta, Dr. John Connors. Once again, the staff is going above and beyond explaining my options. We decided I am a perfect candidate for Kybella in the axilla area.
Maggie Schreck did the injections and explained everything. It was relatively painless, I'd say Botox was more painful. The area got red like a sunburn and there's mild stinging. But ice packs help.
I'm excited to see my results! I highly recommend Dr.connors and his staff for this specialized treatment. So far, so good!
Stay tuned for updates!

Almost 2 weeks out
So tomorrow will be two weeks since I had Kybella injected to the axilla area. The swelling has gone down, and lasted for about 3 days, but then you couldn't really notice it. The bruising was gone within 6 days. I used arnica to help.
For the first 2-3 days it felt like I was punched in the armpits but went away. I noticed my sweat smelled a little more rancid or acidic, but people around me said they couldn't notice. my skin is
still kind of numb. It felt warm to the touch for about a week after injection. I don't notice drastic results yet, but do notice a little improvement. See updates pics from the past 2 weeks of my journey! I will continue to update, especially since this a relatively rare topic on here. Let me know of you have questions!

Also worth noting, I went to the beach 3 days after the procedure. The bruising was noticeable when I put my arms up but not when they were down. The swelling wasn't an issue really either... even in a bikini!

Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm thinking of doing the offmarket myself for a very small area.
