A patient asked 7 years ago
20 y/o, 5'10 140 lbs I am skinny I never had a double chin. I am unsure if this is fat or skin. I am knowledgable in fillers so do not recommend other treatments. In my opinion Voluma is the best, and that's what I have the most of. I am training to get my master's in nursing so I can do injections. Should I do Kybella or just Voluma on my Jawline or a combination of both like 2 Kybella treatment's spaced 6 week's apart and than Voluma to define Jawline? I Included Before/After's & my Goal Jaw

Kybella for Jaw Line

  Hi and thank you for your question! Kybella is FDA-approved for reduction of fat under the chin, and in your case, the issue does not seem to be related to excessive fat and hence Kybella is not likely to help. For a better defined jaw line, injection of fillers would be a great option and you can see great results at skilled hands. I hope it helps and good luck!
