Administering Kybella
The plastic surgeons of Prima Center tailors every patient’s Kybella treatment plan to suit their needs. After assessing the patient’s chin, neck, and profile, the surgeon will perform a series of injections in the comfort of the on-site minor procedures room. The patient will be able to leave immediately after the procedure and resume their normal activities.
What To Expect
Patients should expect to have temporary swelling, bruising, mild pain, redness, and numbness for up to 1 week after their treatment. Results will start to appear from 1 week to 1 month after their treatment. Patients may receive up to 6 treatments at least 1 month apart until their best results appear.
Prima Center Plastic Surgery Reviews
Dr. Philip Nakano has a genuine personality! Excellent bedside manners and cares a great deal about his patients. His facial procedures are beautiful! I trust him.
From the very first consultation to the final outcome, I felt cared for every step of the way. Thank you, Dr. Song, for your incredible work and for delivering results that honestly exceeded my expectations. Forever grateful!
Dr. Song is a world-renowned, Harvard-trained surgeon whose skill and insight stand in a league of their own. A previous tummy tuck left my abdomen excessively tight, creating constant pressure that no specialist could adequately address. I consulted with numerous specialists in both New York City and elsewhere searching for answers and relief. I sat in the offices of highly regarded Park Avenue and Lexington Avenue surgeons, yet I still felt that no one fully understood the complexity of what I was experiencing until I was lucky enough to meet Dr. Song. He expertly revised the prior work, restored proper abdominal space and function, and effectively gave me my life back. The tightness and bloating that had dominated my days for years subsided, my energy returned, and I regained the ability to live fully and comfortably.Beyond his remarkable technical ability, Dr. Song is compassionate, thoughtful, and deeply committed to his patients. His ability to recognize what others overlooked makes him truly exceptional.After consulting numerous surgeons in New York City, I can say without hesitation that Dr. Song operates on an entirely different level. He is not only one of the finest and best surgeons on the East Coast, but one of the best in the entire United States. If you are fortunate enough to be under his care, you will understand very quickly why his reputation is so extraordinary. He did not simply improve my life, he gave it back to me.
I had an incredible experience with Dr. Kumbla! She made sure I felt informed, comfortable, and supported throughout the entire process. She truly went above and beyond, even checking in regularly during my recovery and healing process.I’m also extremely happy with my results — I feel so much more confident and comfortable in my body. I would highly recommend Dr. Kumbla to anyone looking for compassionate care and amazing results!
Prima plastic center is the best. Dr. Song is the best at what he does. He gave me everything I asked for and my results are phenomenal. Adriana took very good care of me and answered any questions I had from start to finish. 10/10 highly recommend Dr. Song and his team.

Frequently Asked Questions
Permanent Results?
Once the Kybella treatments have destroyed the fat cells in the submental area, they are permanently gone. However, patients should maintain a healthy, stable weight after the procedure to prevent weight gain in other areas.
Safety Concerns?
Kybella has been approved by the FDA, scientists have performed over 20 clinical studies, and over 1,600 patients have been treated with Kybella. Patients should disclose their full medical history to their plastic surgeon during their consultation, including any current medications, herbs, and supplements. Kybella is not approved for use in patients under 18 years old and should not be used outside the neck and chin area.
Kybella Vs. Liposuction?
Kybella neck liposuction and traditional neck liposuction are both effective and similarly priced, but Kybella does not involve surgery, general anesthesia, or a lengthy recovery. Your plastic surgeon will discuss both methods during the initial consultation and help the patient determine their best treatment plan.
