Vanessa LeeGUEST
Oh, really? So did you know that in Korea, they used to, like the thing to do for arms and also lower abdomen was always these kind of like mesotherapy.
Vanessa LeeGUEST
It's almost like using Kybella, like deoxycholic injections, deoxycholic acid injections mixed with, you know, they would do like a little, almost their version of air sculpt, like a little bit of light lipo in the area.
Vanessa LeeGUEST
And now it's Onda everything.
Vanessa LeeGUEST
And I visited a couple of clinics that previously last year didn't have Onda and they do have Onda now.
Jerry ChidesterGUEST
So I think it's just, you have to tread very carefully and make sure the right person's assessing you.
Anthony YounHOST
So if somebody asks you, what are your thoughts on Kybella? What would you say?
Jerry ChidesterGUEST
I've never used Kybella in my life.
Jerry ChidesterGUEST
Oh, really? I don't do injections, but I just don't use it.
Jerry ChidesterGUEST
I think it works.
Jerry ChidesterGUEST
Now there are other ways.
Jerry ChidesterGUEST
There's microneedling and other things you can do too to address the skin and the fat.
Jerry ChidesterGUEST
But I personally don't use Kybella.
Lena DunhamHOST
They do a freeze on your fat and your fat supposedly dies.
Lena DunhamHOST
Just like when I got Kybella, they murdered my fat with a...
Lena DunhamHOST
Burning hot acid in my chin.
Alyssa BennettHOST
So okay, well, I discussed this with my celebrity dermatologist, Dr. David Colbert.
Keri CroftHOST

AmyGUEST
so Tim Tree shout out to Tim Tree at Caps he did my reconstruction after my mastectomy when I was 44 and then I went back in after everything was done and I was like I feel like I wanted I wanted Kybella do you remember Kybella so I was like I gotta have this and he said girl it's really not gonna do much but if you really want something get this it's called a max facelift and I literally I mean I know we don't know each other well yet but this whole track I was like I'll do it right yeah I'll do it
JodiGUEST
And I really did.
JodiGUEST
I called you and I
Jason BloomGUEST
And you could liposuction their neck and the neck contour will not change one bit.
Jason BloomGUEST
And I have to explain to them that the subcutaneous fat, the fat under the skin, is really the target for things like liposuction, Kybella, CoolSculpting, and that is just below the skin.
Jason BloomGUEST
But if you sometimes really need to address the deeper fat below the platysma muscle, that can only really be contoured directly with direct excision.
Jason BloomGUEST
And so I am just in my practice, I'm doing way more what I call deep neck lifts where I'm actually removing deep subplatysmal fat and tightening the platysmal bands and deeper neck layers.
Lawrence BassHOST
Now, interestingly, some of the non-surgical devices will hit subplatysmal fat.
Lawrence BassHOST
Coolsculpting will reduce subplatysmal fat.
Lawrence BassHOST
In the Kybella study, we saw subcutaneous fat, not subplatysmal fat.
Lawrence BassHOST
I was an MRI site in the Kybella studies, and we did not see subplatysmal fat because you're not supposed to be injecting it that deep because there are other things down there.
Babak AzizzadehGUEST
Because there is some stuff that just surgery is the treatment and not Botox, fillers, or energy-based devices.
Babak AzizzadehGUEST
There are a lot of individuals who come in who have just a lot of neck issues, and they're like, "Oh my God, I've had five Ultheras, I've had X amount of Kybella, I've done this, I've done that," and it looks not as... maybe worse.
Jessica MatlinHOST
Well, what...
Jessica MatlinHOST
I've gotta ask, so why were practices trying to do that? Was it to retain the patient, or was it because the companies were saying that, "Oh, no, this is the solve"? What was the impetus to try to steer patients towards that solve?
