37 Yr Old Kybella Treatment - Texas, TX

Thank you. Yes, your comments make/ made a difference . I hate how it's all a crap- shoot. :(

Yes, this is all very true.
I am a beauty blogger and had kybella and was swollen for 6 weeks, people made the worst comments on social media so it is 100% not a few days, be prepared to look worse for at least 4 weeks.
Mine started to finally look less
Swollen after 4
Weeks and completely back to normal at 6 weeks and even though I had two treatments I am not seeing a huge difference of any at all but I credit this to the fact that my injector is not following kybella instructions and not using the kybella mini tattoo applicator,
He just nilly willy injected wherever he wanted and only did about 6-10 injection sites normally from
What I understand from the doctors here is that you should
Typically receive about 20 injection sites

Ur before & during pics could b mine, for sure. After my Kybella under chin treatment, I iced on/off for six hrs. immediately following my appt. & wore a 'chin strap' for four nights (10-12 hrs. my little add on and not required by dr.) So my frog neck was gone in one day/night and no swelling at all. Think because of aforementioned help it recover quicker (just my opinion). However, I have the the worst jiggly, huge chin ever! When I shake my head, it jiggles everywhere & I look like I gained 20 lbs. in my neck. So, NO, I don't feel it worked (even with time) with the results I'm looking for. I spent $1600 for one application of Kybella (2 vials one for each side of chin) and one Skin Tite ll skin tightening treatment @ $400 for neck and Juvederm for lower marionette lines. Over all, I would not waste my money on Kybella if you are older (like me wanting to get rid of small turkey gobble and refine jawline) or if you are 20ish lbs. or more overweight (which I am also). From all the reading/reviews/research (personal experience) I've been doing I am convinced it is for younger people, close to normal weight range or older persons if they have good skin elasticity. For my money, complete waste of time and worst fat jiggly chin & my jawline side profile are gone. UGH! SO, in the fall I am having lower lift/laser/lipo. Wish I'd have listened to dr's advice on realself.com as that is what most advised. Good luck with future results.

From all the comments I've been reading over the last few months,..... seriously....everybody, just get the surgery and be done with it. By the time you get through, it doesn't look like much cost difference and the recover time and side affects are much less with surgery . From all what I've read and seen, definitely NO to Kybella!!

I am experiencing the same worse than I went in for. Can you tell me does it take a second treatment to see results?

Your story seems to be right on target with all the stories I've read. Good luck and please continue posting your journey. God Bless.

My Doctor here in St. Louis was in on the trial phase. When I asked him about it, he said he thought I wouldn't be happy with the length of time it would take to work. Thank goodness I didn't do it. I will be having liposuction. I hope it helps you. Please keep posting pictures.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm sorry the results you desire have yet to occur.

Any update?

I hate that for you. ....I've had amazing results.

any before pictures?

thank you for sharing with us. Im sorry you spent all that and no results...thats a lot of $/ I think lipo alone would have fixed that for sure instead of the kybella

I read so many reviews that are marginal and poor results for Kybella. It looks like a bad investment to me.

That is the same picture as the before pic, same exact wall positioning etc.

If you only paid 1800 dollars for 3 treatments I'm afraid it was watered down or you didn't get what you paid for. When injected correctly and in the proper amounts usually good results are achieved. Sorry for your experience.
