Determining the most suitable treatment for your facial features is pivotal. For individuals with a weak chin and an inconspicuous jawline, filler treatments could serve as an excellent starting point. On the other hand, those with a well-defined jawline but pockets of fat beneath it may find fat-freezing or fat-dissolving injections to be more suitable alternatives. To guide you in making an informed decision, I recommend scheduling a consultation with an expert practitioner, with numerous options available on my website. They will thoroughly assess your situation and help you devise a personalised plan of action.
Fat-dissolving injections, such as those utilising deoxycholic acid, have the potential to eliminate a double chin. It’s crucial to note that these injections should only be administered by a specialist to ensure precise application and prevent damage to other cells.
CoolSculpting is an effective method to tighten up a double chin. This innovative fat-freezing procedure targets and eliminates up to 27% of the fat cells in the treated area. Over the course of 12 weeks, the body naturally eliminates these fat cells, resulting in a slimmer chin. Moreover, recent research conducted by the company reveals that the skin above the treated area retracts and tightens over time, ensuring that you are left with a well-contoured chin rather than loose skin.
A non-surgical facelift often includes facial filler injections to add volume to the cheeks and define the jawline, which can help with the appearance of a double chin. While these injections don’t directly address the double chin, by re-defining the jawline, they can make the extra chin less noticeable. It’s important to note that the main purpose of these injections is to enhance facial features and create a more youthful appearance without the need for surgery.
Double-chin creams are ineffective at removing the bulk of fat cells or tightening sagging skin that causes a double chin. Despite claims, even creams with active ingredients like high-strength vitamin C and retinol won’t effectively reduce an existing double chin. It’s crucial to understand that relying solely on creams won’t produce desired results. To effectively address a double chin, combined methods such as proper diet, exercise, and targeted skincare should be considered.
Losing neck fat overnight is an unrealistic expectation, unless you consider opting for surgical liposuction as a quick fix. However, even with liposuction, you would still need to endure weeks of swelling and recovery. Therefore, don’t fall for false advertisements that claim you can magically shed neck fat overnight. It’s physiologically impossible, unfortunately.
Fat freezing treatments start at £600 per session with CoolSculpting, while fat-dissolving injections typically cost around £500 per session (multiple sessions may be required, usually three to four). HIFU sessions begin at £800, and radiofrequency skin tightening sessions start from £200 per session, varying based on the brand and treatment intensity. For liposuction, prices typically start at £3,000.
