You look amazing. Yeah I plan to do about 2 rounds of kybella too. I'm 5'9" and 135 pounds. Dropped my weight from 180 pounds, but my double chin remains. It will not go away no matter what, so I am going to try kybella. I have more chin fat than you so I might need more than 2 rounds but I want to start with 2 rounds. What I would give to have a nice photo with no double chin!!

Congrats on the weight loss-I know how stubborn some pounds can be! I hope your kybella journey goes well and that youre pleased with the results.

I have a consult on Saturday and I've been pretty skeptical too so I'm glad I saw your final pics. I don't have a huge double-chin but I have no definition at all. One Dr told me she wouldn't do kybella but would do lipo but that seems extreme for what I have. I'm a little nervous because the swelling does seem extreme and I saw that one person on here was told to wear a compression wrap. I'm also concerned about trouble swallowing? Someone else on here posted that.

I didnt do any compression wraps..my dr. actually advised against it. I did not have trouble swallowing but felt very awkward running...I felt my swollen neck literally move from side to side. But, even that subsided after a few days. Good luck to you!

2 months post 2nd Kybella treatment
Seek ITNovember 26, 2015
Hi All, After 2 rounds of injections my Kybella journey comes to a close. Throughout the 4 months I continued my regular exercise routine but also quit snacking and lost 14lbs. Im positive weight loss had little to do with the results as ive had fatty neck even at 115lbs. Happy with my results and wish everyone else luck on their journeys.

Thank you for mentioning losing 14lb. When I lose even 5 pounds the little fat I have under chin and neck line instantly decreases so I think your result has more to do with the weight loss than with Kybella.

I have not posted any pictures Seek It. But I also had relatively minimal fat in the area and am very fit and thin. So I understand exactly what you are saying about your results NOT being dependent on your weightless. Some people don't understand have someone can be thin and still have little puffs of fat that can only go away by either lipo or now Kybella. I appreciate your pictures and your feedback as we both had not much to be rid of and both went through a lot of swelling for long periods of time. I am on day four after my second injection and still swollen. But seeing your final results gives me hope. Thanks for the updates. And congratulations too on the weightless and commitment!

melift - can you keep this rest of us posted on how you do? I am also at my optimal weight and had 1 Kybella treatment about 10 days ago. It seems I have turkey gobble now when i didnt before. Called provider and she said to give it 8 weeks. She also said she thought I would only need one treatment, but I am beginning to wonder. Please keep me posted or pics if you have? Also how old are you? I am thinking it works better the younger and more firmer skin you have. I am 49 so dont know if it is fat or lax skin...

WOW. I was expecting an unhappy ending when I scrolled to the end. Congrats on your results!!

I have also had 2 rounds of Kybella starting in December of 2015. I just had a 6 week post 2nd procedure with my Dr., ... Unfortunately no change. Having a little extra under the chin runs in my family even my very thin niece. However, I now think this was a mistake because of my age. I am 47 and didn't realize (since I've had this little chubby pocket my whole life) that now, I also have loose skin. I wish the dr. could have told me this because after $1,200 He is telling me "well, maybe you need thermage or something for the loose skin." He said initially I would only need one or two kybella for how little I had but he should know the difference between skin and fat. I'm back where I started with $1,200 down the drain. Your profile looks beautiful!!

I have tried kybella and from what I have seen my results are VERY minimal and I am 32 and thin. It worked a LITTLE. Not much. And certainly not enough for the coat. Go for Lipo.
April 20, 2016
Well, at least someone else is saying this. I can't even get anything else. I saved up for this because it was bothering me my whole life. Since I didn't have much there I really, really thought it would work! AND, that's what the Dr. thought (he said 2 treatments at the most!) So...when I go back after 2nd treatment and no change you would think that he would have offered me a complimentary thermage or cool sculpt but instead he said he'd take $200 off and I'd only (ONLY) need to pay $1,200 for it. If I had $2,400 to begin with then I wish I would have looked into surgery!!

Thats unfortunate. I tried a thermal treatment before kybella and did not have any results/improvements. If you go for lipo, I hope it works for you. It is interesting how treatments work on some and not all. Kybella is still a rather new treatment; there's bound to be questions left unanswered until more people undergo the process.
