Very noticeably swollen at one day post. Still numb, a little sore and tender to the touch. Feels a little jiggly. Still icing periodically and taking arnica and Tylenol every 6 hours. Thank goodness for scarves!

The doctor is great. He's very nice, as are the staff. He worked quickly and spent time making sure everything was perfect. However, I found myself shocked when it came time to pay for my multiple procedures. During my consultation I was told a charge would be waived that later was not. I tried to explain this to the woman checking me out but she seemed to dismiss me or not hear what I was saying, despite me seeing the doctors notes from the consultation that supported my statement. Also, the doctor apparently used more product than he'd projected which made my fee go up, but this was not mentioned to me during the procedure and I only became aware when I went to pay. The doctor is great, but I am disappointed that the pricing was far more than anticipated.

Give it time, doing mine next friday. Will follow your post .
How has it been now a few weeks later?
Would love to know what you think of the procedure now that it's a couple months later.
How did Kybella work out for you? I read someone else's post that it can take up to 300 days to see final results?

Hello, I'm considering kybella and wanted to see if you are pleased with the final result? How many treatments did you have? Do you have any recent pics? Thank you!
So? Did it not work?

3 hours after procedure

3 hours post and I was already visibly swollen despite being iced for over an hour and taking arnica in advance. It wasn't painful, but it was also still numb from the anesthesia. You can see in the pics the injection sites and the template.
