I wanted to get Lipo for extra fat on back of neck. My highly respected surgeon, Dr Andrews here in Houston, recommended Kabella instead, so I had one viral injected. I had numbing cream and injections of lidocaine. When he injected the Kabella, it burned like the dickens. Now I'm in pain and it still burns. I will post my progress. First picture is post injections day one.

Thank you for your post! How are you sleeping - on your side or stomach?

You know, I am feeling fine, no missed sleep, but I do have a slight headache and a stiff neck, some swellen left. I am hopeful.

You know, I have searched the internet looking for others with this type of procedure and to no avail nothing. So maybe I am. But my doctor sure acted like he knew it would work. Stay tuned for the end results.

I never heard of this product until recently, my doctor informed me what my side effects would be, so it made it seems like he has done this procedure before, I asked him how many treatments, he said 2 1/2. I am hopeful.

When I was 27 years old which was more than 30 years ago I had the same thing. I got rid of it. I started to do yoga and stand up straight in the back muscles got stronger and the fat one away. Amazing it works

I have a bad habit of not looking back when I talk into my phone. The fat went away when I strengthen my back and stood up straight. Look up forward head syndrome and do everything you can to help yourself. It will increase your overall health by opening up here for long capacity when you breathe. Chin up, head up and our necks are supposed to be vertical above our spines. Best of health to you.

It increases your lung capacity, really!

The neck has a cervical curve but it still lines up or the ears are to be aligned with your shoulders and your shoulder blades go your back. Not rounded shoulders, not head forward. That gives you a dowagers hump is which is what you have.

No pain at all. Swellen has gone down some. You can see from this angle the size of the area being treated.

Hi. I also have the buffalo hump from taking steroids for my lupus. I know I was told lipo wouldn't work because the fat there is very dense; no-one every mentioned this option! I am going to check this out. Please post your progress and pictures! Thank you!

Thank you for your post. I hope too this works, day 6 and feeling hopeful. I do have bouts of stringing that run down my shoulder and a major headache for three days now. Not sure if it is related.

That is exactly why I have the hump - years of taking prednisone for lupus. It hard and dense. If this option works, I will be thrilled.

So far, its gone down alot. I will have my second shots in one-week.

Thank you so much for documenting your progress. It really is amazing. So many of us have this awful hump, and no matter how much weight we lose, the hump stays. If you don't mind, is your $1125 cost per treatment or for all 2 1/2 treatments?

Yes, it's per treatment. With the last one half the cost.
