Our clinic offers a range of innovative, non-invasive procedures that can effectively reduce a double chin without the need for traditional surgery. Below, we highlight the most popular treatments available:
1. Kybella (Deoxycholic Acid Injections)
Kybella is a FDA-approved injectable treatment that uses deoxycholic acid to break down and eliminate fat cells beneath the chin. When injected into the targeted area, Kybella disrupts fat cell membranes, causing the fat to be absorbed and processed by the body. This leads to a more contoured and defined jawline.
The procedure is minimally invasive and typically involves multiple sessions, depending on the extent of the double chin. Results are usually visible within a few weeks, with optimal results seen after 2-4 treatments.
2. Ultherapy (Ultrasound Skin Tightening)
Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound technology to stimulate collagen production deep within the skin. This non-invasive treatment lifts and tightens the skin under the chin and along the jawline. It is an ideal option for those looking to address both sagging skin and excess fat in the chin area.
Ultherapy promotes the natural production of collagen, which improves skin elasticity over time. One of the key benefits of Ultherapy is that it requires no downtime, and patients can return to their regular activities immediately following the procedure. Results are gradual, with a noticeable improvement in the skin’s tightness and firmness over the course of a few months.
3. CoolSculpting (Cryolipolysis)
CoolSculpting, also known as cryolipolysis, is a revolutionary non-surgical fat reduction treatment that uses controlled cooling to target and freeze fat cells in the chin area. Once the fat cells are frozen, they are naturally eliminated by the body’s lymphatic system over time.
This procedure is safe and effective, with no incisions or downtime involved. Patients may experience mild redness or swelling in the treated area, but these side effects typically resolve within a few hours to a few days. Results are visible after a few weeks, and multiple treatments may be recommended to achieve the desired outcome.
4. Radiofrequency (RF) Skin Tightening
Radiofrequency treatments, such as Exilis or Venus Legacy, use radiofrequency energy to heat the skin’s deeper layers. This encourages collagen and elastin production, which helps tighten loose skin and reduce the appearance of a double chin. RF skin tightening is ideal for individuals with mild to moderate skin laxity and fat accumulation under the chin.
This non-invasive procedure requires no downtime and has a relatively quick recovery. Results improve gradually, with optimal results typically achieved after a series of treatments.
5. Laser Lipolysis (Laser Fat Reduction)
Laser lipolysis is another advanced non-surgical fat reduction technique that uses laser energy to target and melt fat cells. The laser heats and liquefies the fat beneath the skin, which is then naturally eliminated by the body. This procedure can significantly reduce the appearance of a double chin and contour the jawline.
Laser lipolysis is ideal for those looking for a targeted approach to fat reduction, as the laser can be precisely controlled to target specific areas. Unlike traditional liposuction, laser lipolysis is minimally invasive and requires no stitches or incisions.
