Hoping for the Best. San Francisco, CA

I just had my 4th set of Kybella injections last week... so haven't really seen the full effect of them yet. I had a lot of fat to kill, so I'm not surprised it's taking longer than for others... it is working and I am glad to be doing it. It is expensive but the risks from facelift/liposuction are so daunting, I'm glad to pay it.

I had my 3rd Kybella treatment today. I am very overweight, so I suspected I'd need at least 3 treatments. After my 2nd treatment, one side of my neck was fuller than the other side. It wasn't highly noticeable but the doctor agreed this a.m. it was a bit lopsided too.
Maybe because this is my 3rd round, it seems a bit easier. After the last 2 rounds I took Advil after the treatment, but today I didn't feel the need to. I will see him again in 4 weeks for a f/up... I'm hoping 3 rounds was the charm, but we'll see. Yes, it's expensive but surgery would've been loads more with more risks.
Please find a doctor who has had a lot of experience with Kybella... yes, this is a new treatment and it might be hard in your area to find a doctor with experience. Then wait until you can be seen by someone with experience! Things can go wrong and if the doctor hits a nerve there can be damage. I have great peace of mind knowing my doctor has treated many patients and he now is teaching other doctors how to use Kybella correctly.

After Day 3 I pretty much forgot about my neck, except if I touched it, it was numb. On Day 3 I did have bruising which I covered with makeup some of the bruising was yelllowish and some was bluish. On Day 7 I had a quick check up by the doctor and all was well. On Day 8, today, it's still a tiny bit numb but nothing else. My neck doesn't look smaller but one treatment isn't supposed to do the trick. I'll get my 2nd round of injections in 3 weeks.
