Not impressed..hasn't improved much at all. if you have a neck like mine I would recommend liposuction, faster and awesome results for about the same cost.

Did you have 2 rounds of Kybella total? I am guessing 4 vials?
Yes 2 rounds and 4 vials, you're correct
I do see an improvement. My situation is similar to yours- very little change for me after 3 rounds (6 vials total). I think Kybella is over priced! Way over priced!
Oh my gosh I know! I am so disappointed as I could have gotten chin lipo for about same price and gotten fantastic results! Ugh!
I just want to say thank you for sharing!! I know this takes time but you are helping people who are looking for that information. So thank you again
Thank you!
How are you now? Did you ever have a 3rd treatment? I'm on my 5th!

Final Review 2 months post 2nd round of Kybella

Are there some changes? Yes.
Was it worth $2,400? No.

As you can see changes were not drastic. I still have a double chin in photos at most angles. For this much money I expected at least somewhat similar results to liposuction or the results Kybella promotes on their website. I know everybody is different so maybe I just had too much to begin with, or Kybella was produced only for those with just a small pouch under their chin. Pretty disappointed...guess I'll have to save up for lipo again or stop letting it bother me.

Just like you I had four sessions of Kybella and spend $2450. My chin pouch was much smaller than yours, still Kybella didn't make a dent of result in it. I am not giving up though and saving up $ for real deal procedures.
Ugh I feel awful that they are making so much money off Kybella and it basically doesn't do anything!
Why did you give all five star reviews if you aren't satisfied with the results? Espescially with the overall rating?
I was under the impression the star rating was for the doctor/nurse/facility. They were fine, the product just didn't work for me.
I just had a lower facelift and lipo on jawline. Amazingly different. Worth the money. Still recovering on day 9.
How much did it cost & which Dr. did you use?
The fat looks gone to me, no more neck creases. I think you look great!
Thank you, that is very kind of you to say!
I do see a small difference with Kybella, but not nearly the result you achieved with liposuction. What was the price difference?
Liposuction was 3k, he did my neck/chin area, and armpit fat for that amount. I am saving up to do that again, rather than throw away more money on Kybella (spent $1,200 so far.. so almost half of what i spent on Lipo)

Sorry but I can hardly tell the difference. Has your husband or anyone else noticed?
Save your $, and get surgery if its important to you.
