Kybella Doesn’t Work for Everyone

Was it very painful? Did you feel the numbness in your throat or just on the outside neck area? Was swallowing affected? Sorry it didn’t work out for you.

I have my own mile long review on this website, but I will add my two cents worth on here as well... I did have three rounds, to the final tune of $3800. I am 65 years old so realistically I think I knew beforehand that I would have some loose skin, and I do. However, in my family, we are all cursed with a natural fatty under-chin area. My whole life I dreamt of the sculpted movie star chin/neck, but it is about genetics for me... So I did undergo the treatments, first 3 vials, then 2 a year later, and then 1- 1/2 a month ago. With each treatment, I had minor results until I reached this acceptable point. All I can say is yes, there is a definite difference, making it at least possible for me to be in family photos again. Is it perfect? No. As you said, that would require a face lift for me at this age, and I am 100% never going to do anything that involves cutting. If you like, you can check my own review in a day or two when I am going to post my before and final after for comparison. Believe it or not, even imperfect, I would still have done this. But I think it has to do with how much I loathed my problem area before. There are no real results, I don't think, unless you continue through several treatments, and indeed it is a slow process. Do keep us updated about your progress. I wish you the absolute best!

Its crazy my chin looks exactly like yours. I originally got chin lipo and it did nothing for me, so now im gonna try kybella.

You should wait at least two months before seeing results. I’ve had two sessions. It’s really slow. You definitely won’t see anything the first month.

I've had 2 treatments, a total of 5 vials and 6 weeks have gone by since my last treatment and I'm still swollen. My double chin looks bigger than it did before I started kybella. I don't know what to do. I feel like I already threw 2,500 dollars on something that didnt work.

You've had a single treatment so far and it's only been two weeks... most people are still swollen at this time. It can take as long as 7 weeks for the swelling to go down, and 6 months until the results appear. Plus it usually takes 2-3 applications to get the full effect. Try being more patient before claiming something doesn't work...

Yeah, I agree. Today marks my 2 weeks since my first treatment, and I am still quite swollen although my neck has gone down some since the first couple of days when it looked pretty much like a tree trunk. :-). From all the reviews I've read, the initial change will be magic around 4 to 7 weeks, but I think we have to wait to see the results over months, and possibly even have a second treatment. It's getting a little pricey if I have to have that second treatment but at this point I'm in and hoping for a good result in the end. I'm 64 years old and have hated my under chin area my entire life. Hang in there with me! Let's follow each other's story and continue to encourage. I think we're both going to be okay if we could just get through this first month.
