What to expect

Before

Thorough your consultation with a dermatologist or plastic surgeon. Your submental fat, or the area under your chin, will be measured, and you’ll talk about your medical history and decide if Kybella is correct for you. Tell your doctor about all the drugs you take, especially the blood thinners, as they might need to be changed before receiving therapy.. Additionally, disclose any allergies or pre-existing conditions in the neck or chin area. It’s also wise to schedule your appointment strategically, considering potential swelling and bruising that might take a week or two to subside.

During

During the treatment, expect a minimally invasive procedure. A topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort. Then, the healthcare provider will meticulously inject Kybella using a tiny needle into specific points under your chin. The number of injections varies depending on the amount of fat and your desired outcome. The entire process usually takes about 15-20 minutes. While generally well-tolerated, you might experience some mild discomfort, swelling, redness, or tenderness at the injection sites.

Upon

Post-treatment, you can expect some swelling, bruising, or tenderness in the treated area. These effects usually peak within a few days and gradually subside over 1-2 weeks. It’s best to avoid strenuous exercise during this time and stick to gentle activities. You’ll start to see results in a few weeks as the body breaks down and flushes out the treated fat cells. Full results are usually visible after a few months, with the final shape of your chin emerging beautifully. And the best part? The results are long-lasting, giving you that contoured look without needing to repeat the process often.

Aftercare Instructions

• Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling for the first 24 hours.
• Sleep with your head elevated to minimize swelling.
• Avoid strenuous exercise and alcohol for 48 hours.
• Do not massage or touch the treated area for a few days.
• Wear loose clothing around the neck to avoid pressure.
• Stay hydrated to help your body flush out the treated fat cells.

Results

Results from Kybella start to become noticeable within 4-6 weeks after the first treatment, as the body gradually breaks down and flushes out the destroyed fat cells. Optimal results typically appear around 2-3 months after completing the full treatment series, which may include 2-4 sessions spaced a month apart. Once the targeted fat cells are destroyed, they do not return, making the results long-lasting. However, maintaining a stable weight is crucial to preserve the contoured look, as significant weight gain can lead to new fat accumulation in the treated area.
