KYBELLA
IN GILBERT, AZ
WHAT IS KYBELLA?
Kybella is an FDA-approved treatment used to permanently destroy fat cells. This treatment is typically performed over three sessions until your goal is achieved. The body’s fat destruction process takes about 4-6 weeks to complete. The treatment is fairly quick and painless, and downtime only lasts a few days. Kybella can be used to reduce a “double chin”, a “bra bulge”, jowls in the face, inner thighs, and a “banana roll”.

INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE YOUR KYBELLA TREATMENT
2-3 WEEKS BEFORE:
You may not be treated if you are pregnant or nursing, have difficulty swallowing, nerve injury or weakness in the lower face, or an infection in the area. Inform your medical provider if you are on blood thinners, or have had procedures or surgery of your lower face or neck.
Plan your procedure so that you can have 4 full days before returning to work or important social engagements.
1 WEEK BEFORE:
Avoid supplements such as Fish Oil/Omega 3, Ginko, St. Johns Wort, and anti-inflammatories of any kind to limit bruising.
72 HOURS BEFORE:
Cease blood thinners - NSAIDs, Aspirin, etc. (*Unless medically necessary and/or Dr. prescribed)
Start oral Arnica - Arnica is an herbal homeopathic supplement that has been shown to decrease bruising and bleeding. This may increase your healing time if you are prone to these side effects.
24 HOURS BEFORE:
Avoid alcohol intake of any kind to limit bruising.
If you become ill, develop a rash or cold sore please call and reschedule.
DAY OF:
Come in with a clean face
If you frequently exercise, complete your routine prior to your appointment.
Allow for the full appointment time to be treated. This gives time to complete consents, perform assessments, answer questions and perform the treatment.
Tylenol will not cause bruising and is preferred for the week prior to treatment. To avoid possible discomfort, you may take 1g of acetaminophen (i.e. Tylenol) or NSAIDs (such as ibuprofen) one hour prior to your scheduled appointment.
Have ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil) and Zyrtec (an antihistamine) available at home for discomfort and itching that may result from the procedure.
AFTER YOUR KYBELLA TREATMENT
DAY OF:
After your treatment, you should expect swelling and redness. You may also experience bruising, pain, numbness, and induration. This will normally last less than 5 days, and for some patients may last up to 14 days. If the symptoms continue beyond 10 days or if other reactions occur, please contact the office.
You may elect to ice the area post treatment but must do so very carefully. Use an ice pack with the fabric side against the skin, or wrap a soft plastic ice pack in a wet thin towel. Apply the ice pack approximately 15 seconds on, and 15 seconds off. Icing too vigorously can cause frostbite and scarring. You may apply a cold compress to the area for 20 minutes per hour, and you may do this hourly for up to 3 days.
You may apply your normal skin care regimen and sunscreen normally.
Sleep with your head elevated on at least 2 and preferably 3 pillows.
Do not scratch, pick or traumatize the area in any way. Do not massage or manipulate the injection site.
Call the office if you have any difficulty swallowing, crusting or scabbing, asymmetry of your smile or any other unusual symptoms.
Do not participate in strenuous activity for 3 days following treatment.
