Double Chin

What is a Double Chin?

A double chin is a common issue where an excess layer of fatty tissue forms between your chin and neck. This condition affects individuals of all ages and genders.

DOUBLE CHIN CAUSES

• Genetics:
  A family tendency toward stubborn body fat or reduced skin elasticity
• Age:
  The collagen of your skin and elastin weakens causing your skin to sag
• Posture:
  Your posture can weaken your chin muscles causing the skin to lose elasticity
• Diet and Exercise:
  Consuming excess calories, not exercising regularly, or struggling to lose weight long-term
• Aging and Collagen loss:
  Over time, the skin loses tone and elasticity, leading to visible sagging

Non-Surgical Treatments for a Double Chin

HausMD has many treatment options to diminish your double chin and boost your self-confidence and appearance.

Liposuction Procedures

Precision liposuction offers a solution for unwanted excess fat in the neck and under the chin. This procedure contours the jawline, creating a more youthful appearance. Traditional liposuction is a one-time procedure with one to two days of downtime and natural appearing results. The incision site is tiny, leaving minimal scarring.

Virtue RF Microneedling

RF Microneedling uses non-invasive heat technology to slim and tighten the chin. It improves skin quality by increasing collagen, providing quick and long-lasting results. Virtue RF Microneedling treatments should occur once every 4-6 weeks. There is little to no downtime from RF treatments.

Minimally Invasive Options for Chin and Neck Contouring

For patients seeking a more dramatic and permanent contour, surgical treatment may be the most effective way to remove fat and tighten the skin around the chin and neck:

Threads

PDO Threads offer a minimally invasive way to tighten loose skin and improve contour without surgery. Using fine, absorbable sutures placed beneath the skin, threads lift and reposition sagging tissue along the neck, jawline, and lower face. This procedure helps stimulate collagen production, gradually firming and toning the treated area.
