It's been 1 month since my second treatment... I look at my face everyday so to me I don't really see a change. What do you guys think?

Thank you for sharing your experiences and photos ! The front view photos look like there's been some improvement, but the side view only looks a bit different. Not a significant change. What does your physician say?

No i go back next week

Front picture def looks like a good improvement, side picture minimal difference. However keep in mind you are only one month after injection, doubt you will see any real difference until 8 weeks mark. Are u contemplating going back for your 3rd? I had my 3rd almost 7 weeks ago, fat is almost gone but i m left with saggy skin . I m seeing my dr this friday for either final kybella or ultherapy.. Good luck in your journey.

Please let us know what you decide upon? Kybella round 4 or Ultherapy.

So i decided to go for ultherapy on november 17th, my injector stated there is not going to be much difference from treatment 3 to 4th . Probably best in my case to skip 4th injection and go straight to ultherapy.. I can always go back and get my 4th injection if needed. I will be posting my results from last treatment and start a new Ultherapy blog , only doing the chin area for ultherapy.

Probably be best for the amount you have to go for traditional Lipo , i m at my 3rd kybella n results still questionable. I decided to try ultherapy for loose skin after kybella . Good luck in your journey .

Hi, I can relate to you on this since I'm about one and a-half months post 2nd round of Kybella and, so far, have yet to notice improvement. During my initial consult, my doctor & nurse advised me I'll need 3rounds, based on how much fat I started with & also based on what the doctor has experienced with other patients. So, going in, I already anticipated I'd need 3rounds before seeing improvement. Certainly, the treatment is expensive..I paid $3k for 3session package..received 3vials of Kybella during 1st & 2nd session, each. It hurts to know that $ is gone when I still can't see improvement, but I am hopeful 3rd round will deliver results as my doc said.
Did your doctor discuss in advance how many sessions you'd need?

Do u see any changes yet?
October 19, 2016
I see no real changes...I would not be seeking to do this procedure. And you're not the first one either that has alerted to me of the failures of this technique.
October 19, 2016
If it doesn't fix the issue, then it's a failure, despite how nice the staff is...
