“Our fat dissolving injections are an effective and non-surgical solution to double chin.”
Excess fat under the chin develops as a result of aging. This cosmetic concern can be difficult to remove with diet and exercise alone. If your double chin is affecting your self-esteem, fat dissolving injections can help. This clinically proven treatment results in a sleeker, more defined chin profile after a series of injections.
How do fat dissolving injections work?
The injections contain an active ingredient that occurs naturally in your body. This substance aids in the digestion of fat stored in the food we eat. When administered into fatty areas, the active ingredient breaks down fat cells. The fat cells are then eliminated by your body via your kidneys.
What to expect from double chin removal treatment?
During the treatment, your surgeon will cleanse your skin with an antiseptic solution. To prevent any discomfort, a numbing cream will be applied to your skin. Your surgeon will then administer several injections under your chin. The entire process will usually take 30 minutes or less. After the procedure, you can return to your regular activities.
After 2 to 12 weeks, you should expect to see a reduction in the appearance of your double chin. You’ll notice that your jawline and neck area becomes slimmer and more refined.
Permanently eliminate your double chin
Once the fat cells are broken down, they can no longer store or accumulate fat. As a result, the effects of the procedure are permanent and you will not need maintenance treatment.

The treatment has minimal downtime. This means that you need to rest for a few days until swelling in the treated area subsides. While recovering at home, you will need to use ice packs over the treated area to reduce pain and swelling.
Injecting fine needles in your chin can cause discomfort. To address this concern, your surgeon will apply a numbing cream before the treatment. After the procedure, your surgeon will also ice your chin to reduce discomfort.
