WORTH IT$1,200
I went for my first treatment of Kybella @ 11:30 today. The procedure was less painful than I expected, though I am sore and swollen now. I am managing with ice and ibuprofen. I return for my 2nd treatment in 5 weeks. I paid $1200 and I plan on returning to work tomorrow. I am expecting minimul results from the first treatment and am looking forward to the second or third, if necessary.

Are you being quoted 1200.00 per treatment?

Wow that's really encouraging! I want to do this but have seen some women who saw no effect. It's scary since it costs several thousand dollars.

It took 2 treatments before I saw any results, but it really worked for me.

Just make sure you're going to a good doctor.… I thought I was until my doctor gave me a couple of treatment and hit a nerve! Now I have a scar and have been getting laser treatment from my new doctor to get rid of this scar from the doctor that hit the nerve. You're better off getting cool sculpting! There are a lot of problems with Kybella that no one tells you!! Be careful!!!

Day one

I am super swollen. It looks like I have been stung by a bee or put on some major lbs. the pain isn't bad but I wish I would have been able to take off work. I've told everyone I work with about this but I think it's going to be hard to explain that it is not an instant gratification kind of procedure and I will look worse before I look better. I hope there's not as much swelling with round 2. The pain isn't too bad, just the swelling.

The swelling was a still a surprise even though I knew and even though I'd read reviews and saw pictures. And the texture (loose and jelly ish) of the swollen area was wild too. I am 1 week past my first injection appointment today and back about to where I was before injection.
My doctor said the next month will be slow changing. I'll probably do the second set in the fall - Sept or Oct - when I can start wearing scarves again! LOL

Yes, I was still suprised even after all I read. I think it will all be worth it, when there's just 1 chin;) I hope my swelling goes down by next week like yours!

Day 1. Have to go to work and look like I've been stung by something. I am really red and swollen. Hope to look better in a few days.
