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.
I'm always very happy with Prima and now that Gary is there, I'm even happier!!
I have been a client of Prima since it opened. I have also moved in and out of Atlanta and experienced other doctors in multiple states. Lindsey who answered my call for an appointment provided a possible explanation for an issue I had had at another facility in another state. Her shared experience was extremely helpful. Since my last visit Gary was hired who specifically handles fillers. He spent considerable time discussing what my objectives were. I can honestly say Gary accomplished and exceeded my expectations providing phenomenal results! The technique he uses eliminates multiple needle sticks. I am all for that. Exceptional facility and excellent staff!!
I went to PRIMA for the first time a couple of days ago, having followed Gary Washington from another clinic. The receptionist was friendly, and as usual, Gary was skilled and efficient. I'm very pleased with my results.
Dr. Mike Song performed my breast reduction, breast lift, and side breast liposuction on June 1, 2026, and I could not be happier with my results. His exceptional skill, meticulous attention to detail, and unwavering dedication have truly changed my life.The confidence, comfort, and improved quality of life I now experience are beyond measure. From my very first consultation through my recovery, Dr. Song took the time to thoroughly explain every step of the process, ensuring I felt informed, comfortable, and confident in my decision.I have undergone at least ten surgeries throughout my life, and this was, without question, the smoothest and easiest recovery I have ever experienced. That speaks volumes about Dr. Song’s expertise and surgical technique.I also want to recognize his wonderful assistant, Sarah, who was kind, knowledgeable, responsive, and supportive every step of the way. Together, they made an outstanding team and provided exceptional patient care.If you’re considering cosmetic or reconstructive surgery, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Mike Song of Prima Plastic Surgery Center. His professionalism, bedside manner, and commitment to achieving outstanding results exceeded every expectation. Thank you, Dr. Song, for giving me not only incredible results but also renewed confidence and a better quality of life.

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.
