WORTH IT$2,700

I m so excited about trying kybella vs chin lipo , I was originally scheduled for chin lipo but changed my mind at the last minute , I have struggle with my double chin , it runs it my family ,no matter how much I work out my chin will akways make me look heavier than what I m actually am.
My stats are 5'1 120 36.26.38 .
My first treatment was at level 6/10 painful , I put ice for about 5 minutes prior to injection , I would have hope numbing cream n ice to feel less pain . Perhaps I can ask for that alternative next time . Mild pain lasted about 2 hours after procedure , I took 1 ibuprofen for the pain .
The night before procedure I was recommended to take Benadryl , in case I had an ellergic reaction . I would say so far the worst side effect is the swelling . My chin looks 3 times bigger than before . I decided to take the weekend off n stay in . This is definitely not a quick fix . Be aware and plan ahead .
I m planning to get my second injection in 6 weeks . Will post new pictures at 3rd/6 weeks mark .

MissRT, you've hit it on the nail because Patience is absolutely key through the Kybella process. I'm 3weeks post 1st treatment and still have swelling, although it's slowly &progressively gone down (1st week of swelling was the worst)...I feel icing during that 1st week helped me reduce swelling and pain...hoping you get the results you're looking for:)

Thank you . Oh ya with cosmetic procedures is best to let time pass and take pictures to see results . Not sure if 6 weeks is too early for deboned injection .

i got it done at Dr. soto (orlando, FL) could not really answer if it was worth it or not until i m done with 3rd injection. so far, i see a minimal difference .

My provider told my that Kybella recommends the-the following steps before injecting. Numb the area with cream for about 15 minutes and then do the injections. However, they did not think that was enough and decided to add after the numbing cream lidocaine injections. Now I have mentioned on my blog; I decided to skip the cream and Lidocaine injections would be just fine, which it was. The Kybella injections were completely painless. Yes, there is some swelling but nothing I wasn't told about before. Good luck.

Liposuction is still the gold standard. One treatment. Minimal swelling. Loose skin is always the potential downside.

Ya. Unfortunately it happened with my arm lipo, little saggy after fat was gone. this is why i opted for this treatment , hopefully it was worth it after time and money invested.

It's looking great! I'm in Orlando too, so I'd love to know where you had it done. How long did the swelling last? Is the cost for the complete process, or per treatment?

Hello , had it done at armando soto, ask for kelly , she is the best!
swelling lasted weeks, so far it has cost me $2,200.00 but might have one last one.
Per treatment is $1200.00 i think. call armando soto's office.
