TL;DR:
- Excess fat under the chin, often caused by genetics, poor diet, and posture, can lead to a poorly defined jawline. Cosmetic solutions are ineffective, but aesthetic medicine offers treatments like lipolysis, volumetry, and liposuction.
Chin Lipolysis:
- Non-surgical; uses phosphatidylcholine to dissolve fat.
- Fat is metabolized and excreted naturally.
- Requires 3 treatments for optimal results, reducing 2–5 cm of fat.
- Stimulates collagen and elastin for firmer skin.
Chin Volumetry:
- Uses hyaluronic acid fillers to contour and lift the jawline.
- Improves hydration, reduces the double chin, and combats aging.
Chin Liposuction:
- Surgical procedure under anesthesia to permanently suction fat.
- Involves small incisions; results in a slimmer, rejuvenated face.
- Compression bandage required post-procedure.
All methods are safe and suitable for men and women seeking facial enhancement.
Excessive fat accumulating under the chin is a common phenomenon that patients come to me with. The result is a lack of a well-defined jawline in both men and women of all ages. It is both the result of genes and improper habits, including an ill-balanced diet rich in fats and sugars, or poor posture. Unfortunately, but cosmetics do not offer the possibility to mask this problem, while aesthetic medicine makes it possible to effectively reduce it. Among the most popular treatments are primarily volumetry, lipolysis and liposuction.
What does chin lipolysis consist of?
Chin lipolysis is a non-surgical procedure to remove the second chin. It is performed using a preparation with phosphatidylcholine that dissolves fat cells. The preparation is injected into the adipose tissue, so that the released fat goes directly to the liver to then be excreted from the body due to metabolic processes. I perform the procedure using one of two methods: fan or spot. The former involves 5-6 injections, while the latter requires only a single puncture.
Effects of lipolysis of the chin
I recommend lipolysis of the chin to patients who want to slim the neck and oval of the face. The procedure can remove 2 to 5 cm of fatty tissue. Any treatment I perform is non-invasive, and the results are visible immediately. It takes about a month to remove fat cells from the body, but I always recommend performing a series of 3 treatments for lasting results. **My patients may also notice after chin lipolysis a stimulation of the skin to produce collagen and elastin, thus increasing the firmness and elasticity of the skin.
What does chin volumetrics consist of?
Chin volumetry is an action of lifting and contouring the contours of the face. I perform the procedure with a hyaluronic acid-based filler, which I then inject subcutaneously. I perform the injection using a thin needle. Hyaluronic acid is much denser than typical fillers and more malleable. Thanks to the thin needle or cannula injection method, the procedure is virtually painless for my patients, and the only discomfort may be felt in the form of a slight spreading in the subcutaneous tissues.
Effects of chin volumetrics
I recommend volumetrics to both women and men who are concerned about stopping the signs of aging associated with volume loss. The procedure also has the effect of aligning the facial contour, reducing the second chin and hydrating the skin. Patients may experience slight redness or swelling at the site of filler application, but this fades spontaneously after 2 -3 days. hyaluronic acid facial volumetrics
What does the chin liposuction procedure consist of?
Chin liposuction is nothing more than suction and drainage of fat outside the body. It is one of the most effective facial slimming and contouring procedures. I perform liposuction under general anesthesia or sedation. I make several small cuts in the chin and ear area, so that I can later use a pressurized cannula to suction excess fat from the chin. It is then reshaped, resulting in a clearly defined line between the face and neck. Finally, I place sutures and a compression mask to act as a dressing to promote wound healing.
Effects of chin liposuction
After the procedure, my patients must wear an elastic compression bandage. There may be bruising or swelling in the chin area for 7 days, and the final result will be visible after one month. The result is a noticeable “slimming” of the face by eliminating the double chin, slimming the face, giving it better proportions and significant rejuvenation. chin liposuction
Why reduce double chin with aesthetic medicine?
For many of my patients, the chin and chin are a serious source of complexes. Double chin can not only add years, but also cause an unattractive facial appearance. However, thanks to modern aesthetic medicine, I can successfully perform chin corrections, which improves the overall facial appearance of my patients and results in a better “profile” appearance. The methods I discuss are completely safe and achieve the desired result.
The purpose of the procedures I perform is primarily to beautify the appearance and correct beauty defects.That is why the methods I propose do not cause side effects and can be carried out in practically everyone regardless of age and gender.
Conclusion
Addressing a double chin is no longer a challenge with today’s aesthetic techniques. Treatments like lipolysis, volumetrics, and liposuction offer safe, effective results tailored to individual needs. Each method is designed to enhance facial contours, improve skin firmness, and restore confidence. Whether you prefer non-invasive procedures or a surgical approach, there’s a solution for everyone. The key is choosing the option that aligns with your goals and priorities. These treatments not only reshape your profile but also help you feel and look your best.
