Double Chin Treatment or Submental Fat

Submental fat or double chin is the extra pocket of fat between the chin and neck. A double chin can be the result of being overweight, however genetics play a role in its development too. Dissolving the submental fat with Kybella is a safe, effective, non-surgical treatment. Microfocused ultrasound or Ulthera can then be used to tighten any loose skin left over after treating the submental fat.

Double Chin Treatments

Kybella® is an extremely popular method of reducing double chin. Kybella® (Deoxycholic acid) is a fat-dissolving substance that is injected into the chin/neck region. Patients are choosing Kybella® because it permanently destroys the fat cells and improves the appearance of the neck.

Ulthera® is a common noninvasive procedure for tightening lax skin on the neck. Short pulses of microfocused ultrasound stimulate collagen and elastin production tightening the skin of the lower face and neck. There is no downtime with Ulthera® and the procedure is safe. For best results, Ulthera® should be repeated annually.
