Kybella Pensacola, FL

Typical Timing/Age

40-60

Problem

Excess fat in the upper neck, chin area

Procedure

Kybella is an injectable treatment that dissolves fat in the neck and chin area resulting in a more defined jawline. Most patients require two to three treatments, four to six weeks apart. Because of this, in-office liposuction may be a better, less-expensive option.

Goal

A defined jawline with a more youthful and pleasing contour.

Preparation

Patients should be a stable weight.

Anesthesia

No anesthesia required.

Recovery

Patients should be able to resume most normal activities immediately following the injection.

Exercise

No exercise for the first 24 hours.

Swelling

Patients may experience swelling in the area treated. This can be helped by wearing a compression strap at night and sleeping slightly elevated.

Bruising

Slight bruising may occur at the injection site.

Follow-up Appointments

4-6 weeks after the final injection
