KYBELLA Neck Fat Treatment in New Orleans, LA

Every human is unique in how they store their fat, and this includes the fat underneath the chin. Therefore, the number of injections will depend on your total fat stored in the “double chin” as well as your final aesthetic goal. Subliminal fat can be thick; each treatment is performed at least one month apart from each other. There is a maximum number of six treatments that you can receive. In the FDA clinical studies of Kybella, 59% of recipients underwent six treatments in order to achieve their aesthetic goals. 

Recovering from a Kybella Injection 

Although Kybella is relatively painless, it is not uncommon to have a bit of bruising, swelling, or numbness at the injection site under the chin. As an FDA-approved treatment, Kybella’s serious side effects are rare. Our New Orleans Kybella specialists have been trained to treat issues in the rare case that a patient may report an adverse effect. Contact QnA if you start to note any unevenness in your smile, difficulties swallowing, facial weakness, ulcers, or any other severe skin issues around the treatment area.
