What the gurus are saying

Reviewers split sharply on Kybella's practical viability. The main deterrent is severe, prolonged swelling that's difficult to conceal, combined with the need for multiple sessions spread over many months and inconsistent results. One reviewer saw no improvement after six months and ruled it out entirely. A medical professional acknowledges it as one option among several alternatives like radiofrequency and microneedling, suggesting better choices may now exist.

"The problem with Kybella is you need so many things done in my previous experience so many months apart and there is a lot of downtime. Your chin swells up massive like a frog. It's really not easy to hide. After 6 months I had no results from it, so it's not something I will do again. I'm pretty sure there are better alternatives nowadays but it's just not something that I will ever have done again."

"We can inject Kybella or you can get radio frequency, microneedling, or other devices to help with that area, the submental or under the chin excess of skin or fat."
