Bothered by a double chin?  Luckily, there are a variety of ways that Dr. C can treat fullness under the chin.  Below are some examples of procedures that address the double chin:

1.     Injections – Deoxycholic acid (aka “Kybella”) is a minimally-invasive injection that can be used to “dissolve” the fat under the chin.  Multiple injections are done over several sessions for complete treatment.

2.     Liposuction – liposuction is done through small holes in the skin.  Through these small holes (usually hidden behind the ears) tiny cannulas are inserted and the fat below the chin is suctioned out.  This improves the chin and jawline contour and can be done under local or general anesthesia.

3.     Face lift – this surgery is done under general anesthesia to remove fat and loose, saggy skin around the chin and neck, removing a double chin.  This can address the chin, neck, and face all at once.

4.     Neck lift/mini-face lift – a procedure that specifically addresses the chin and neck.  Can include direct fat excision (submental lipectomy), excess skin removal (cervicoplasty), and be combined with muscle tightening under the chin (platysmaplasty) or salivary gland reduction.
