Does Kybella hurt?
The Kybella injection can be a bit painful, but your provider will use numbing cream to make it more comfortable for patients. Patients are recommended to take a pain reliever before their session to ease some of the pain.
How many Kybella treatments will I need?
Results typically take time and more than one treatment to show and each session can last anywhere from 15-30 minutes. Initially, people may show swelling immediately after the session, but you can schedule your next session 6 weeks after and results should start to show after additional treatments. Depending on the person, it should take no more than 6 treatments.
How long do Kybella results last?
Kybella is meant to produce long-term or permanent results as the destroyed fat cells mostly cannot regenerate themselves.
