Patients with consolidated fat deposits and fullness underneath the chin (“double chin”) are great candidates for having Kybella. However, patients who have a lot of loose and hanging skin (“turkey neck”) are not good candidates for this procedure. Unfortunately, this procedure does not work to remove skin. Additionally, if you suffer from bleeding problems or have difficulty swallowing, you may not be a good candidate.
If you are not a candidate, you may be a good candidate for neck liposuction with or without a neck lift. Dr. Bucay takes her time with every patient from the beginning to end. She will thoroughly review your medical history to see if this procedure is right for you.
