Question 1

Is Kybella really permanent?

Accepted Answer

The fat cells Kybella destroys do not return. However, remaining fat cells can still enlarge with significant weight gain, so a stable weight helps preserve the result.

Question 2

How many Kybella sessions will I need?

Accepted Answer

Most patients need 2 to 4 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, and some need more for larger volumes of fat. Dr. Mashhadian estimates your session count at consultation and refines it as your progress is reviewed.

Question 3

How much swelling should I expect after Kybella?

Accepted Answer

Noticeable swelling under the chin is normal for 1 to 2 weeks after each session, with the first few days the most obvious. Planning sessions before quieter stretches of your calendar makes recovery easy to manage.

Question 4

How much does Kybella cost in Beverly Hills?

Accepted Answer

Cost depends on the number of sessions and the amount of product your plan requires, so pricing is personalized and quoted at your consultation. The in-person consultation fee is $150, and a virtual consultation is $250, applied toward treatment. Rodeo Surgical Art does not accept insurance.

Question 5

Kybella or liposuction: how do I choose?

Accepted Answer

Kybella suits patients with moderate fat, good skin elasticity and a preference for avoiding surgery. Liposuction removes fat in a single procedure and allows skin tightening at the same time. Dr. Mashhadian will examine your neck and recommend the approach that honestly fits your anatomy.

Question 6

What if Kybella is not enough for my neck?

Accepted Answer

If loose skin, muscle banding or a heavy neck structure is part of the picture, fat reduction alone will not create a defined angle. In that case Dr. Mashhadian may discuss options such as MyEllevate or a neck lift, and he will explain exactly why at your consultation.
