Kybella Reviews
"I had to use KyBella’s skin procedure on my chin and neck in 2020 and it left me severely disfigured. My neck has sagging skin that makes me look 20 years older than my natural age. Went back to see the doctor about it. They offered laser pekoe therapy which did not work. I went to see another doctor and he said it could be fixed with $16,000 for a neck lift."
For Submental Fullness "My vision in my eye is completely gone after having Kybella. I’m very sick too, this product ate away at my body and mind. This Kybella is a cell destroying drug which physically destroys the cells. It’s dangerous"
For Submental Fullness "KYBELLA warning it's not worth it . I had KYBELLA injections in January of 2016 and from that day forward I have been so sick, several Dr. Involved I've been to hostipal several times only nobody knew what KYBELLA was. I'm having short time memory loss , headache , for the last 4 months. More test next week CT SCANS, MRI, X-RAYS DR AFTER DR. RIGHT EYE BLURRY and getting worse by the day. Intentional infection. I've actually contacted an attorney so when I loose my memory or die to fight for my children."
For Submental Fullness "Horrible - a nation wide advocate group needs started to stop this drug - once it’s injected it goes from your chin into neck and spinal cord and will cause permanant life long neck , back , spinal cord and neurological disorders. I had this injection 5 years ago and it has ruined my life. It destroyed my neck and now suffer from debilitating pain"
For Submental Fullness "Just had first injections. 42 injection sites. The doctor used a topical gel to help numb the area first. Side effects during the procedure were slight stinging and feeling of fullness. (Swelling). After the procedure, I kept an ice pack on the area, on and off, for about 4 hours. This helped with the stinging, which lasted from 4:30 PM, when the injections were given, until about 8 PM. After that, just a lot of swelling and feeling of fullness. No trouble sleeping that night. Took 600 mg of Motrin before bedtime. Cost was $500 per vial (a $100 per vial discount off his normal price) it took 4 vials. Still very swollen the next morning with some slight numbness in the injection area. Interested to see how long the swelling lasts."
For Submental Fullness "Warning! Kybella acid migrates to brain after being injected into chin. I am left with brain skull back of head twitching and feelings of brain bone parts moving around- had ct scan 4 years after kybella and discovers kybella struck my brain tissue and ate away at my brain tissue."
For Submental Fullness "I had Kybella in 2018 on my huge double chin. I noticed a difference after about a week once the swelling started going down. The second dose was a few months later and again it continued to shrink my double chin immensely. I also noticed my sleep apnea wasn’t bad at all anymore because it removed the amount of weight on my neck at night. I recently decided to get one more small dose to make it smaller. I don’t need it perfect, I still want to look natural but decided to do one more. My face before continuing to my neck and now it melted the fat around my jawline and you can see my jawline slimming the entire look of my face. I read the other reviews here and as scary as they sound I luckily have not had any negative effects. You do get poked a lot from the tiny needles but you are given ice packs and the pain only lasts about 30 minutes. Huge results for me!"
For Submental Fullness "I had Kybella injections 4 days ago. As far as the "expected" side effects go that seems normal. But the first two days I was excessively tired and slept way more than usual, I've also developed a very bad sore throat and upper bronchitis, now on day 4 I've completely lost my voice. Sounds like a cold right? Tested negative for covid and strep yesterday. I think it's due to Kybella, I am very healthy and never get sick. Not like this. I'm hoping I can get back to normal and the effects aren't long term or permanent."
For Submental Fullness "If you are prone to headaches, you may get one. I am and I did. It started a few hours after the injection and I still have the headache almost 24 hours later, but I haven't taken anything for it because my doctor said Advil, Aspirin, Aleve will cause bruising and possible bleeding with Kybella. She recommended Claritin but I took Benedryl because that is what I had. It does sting shortly after the injection but ice helps. I kept the ice on for hours (on and off) and that really helped. My neck did swell anyways where the injections were given. Hopefully this is all worth it!"
For Submental Fullness "Kybella has effectively eliminated the appearance of my double chin. "
