Hello everyone. I'm about one month post. I can still feel some hard lumps but they have decreased in size and are not noticeable if you are just looking at me. The swelling has probably fully subsided now and I can see a definite change. I am no longer numb so I would say aside from the hard knots all is well. I'll post a pic with this update and I would love to hear your questions/comments. I will see my doc after the holiday which will be nice to have a look at the dr. office photos since they have better control of the camera height and angle and so forth. Let me know what you think of the photos!

I see a definite improvement. I just had kybella done 2 days ago myself. I had 1 1/2 viles and 15 injection sites. What about you? How do you feel about your results? Will you be getting more?

You had very little fat to begin with but I can a definite improvement. You are young and I believe are a perfect candidate for this type of procedure.

I just made my appt for Kybella this week. I can't definitely tell your fullness has gone down. It wasn't much to begin with and I have about the same amount. I was told not to expect full results until 4-6 wks after the 2nd treatment, so that's awesome after one treatment! Any more updates?

Just over two weeks out and I'm now looking about how I did before the procedure. The "gel like" feel is going away and being replaced by a more hard knotted feel that I have read is the fat solidifying. I'm still a bit numb and looking up it feels sort of stiff. Fingers crossed to see some improvement in the next couple weeks.

I'm curious about the "knotted" feeling. Has any kind of gently massage of the area been suggested or will the body simply "clean out" this solidified fat? Your results look tremendous already!

I was told to just let it be and let my body do the work ;) Because it's just something that I feel and not so much something that I can see it's an easy instruction to follow!

The knots are slowly fading but it seems to be a sort of slow process. It gets better just hang in there

Ok! Thanks. There is really only one hard knot and my doctor is wanting to do second treatment at 4 - 6 weeks. Not sure I can handle it - but a lot of feedback looks like 2nd treatment may help knot - not sure what to believe - this has been slow recovery!

Oh Thank you for the reply, that's good to know it's felt more than seen. I'm thinking of doing kybella in Feb. and have been reading people's experiences and looking at photos. Would love a current update and photo from you too! :) Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays

Hello all! It's day 12 and I would say the swelling is coming down steadily. It feels very much like a patch of gel. The numbness is very minimal and I'm just excited to see some results. From what I have been reading the majority of swelling is almost over by week 2
