Kybella can cause some mild to moderate discomfort during and after treatment. Here’s what to expect and how to manage it:
- During Injections: Most patients describe the sensation as a series of small pinches or a stinging feeling.
- After Treatment: Temporary soreness, tenderness, and swelling are common, but usually manageable.
Strategies for minimizing discomfort:
- Topical Numbing: At House of Aesthetics, we often apply a topical numbing cream before injections to minimize discomfort.
- Ice Packs: Applying ice packs to the treated area can help reduce swelling and discomfort.
- Over-the-Counter Pain Relief: Your provider may recommend over-the-counter pain relievers for the first few days.
The level of discomfort varies from person to person. At House of Aesthetics, your comfort is our priority, and we’ll work with you to ensure your experience is as comfortable as possible.
