Which Treatments Can Help a Double Chin?
As we continually work to address unsightly facial wrinkles, forehead creases, and sagging folds to slow down the aging process, addressing excess fat and sagging skin on the neck can also be challenging. At Aria Dermatology and Aesthetic Center, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Lisa Donofrio employs multiple facial rejuvenation treatments to give your neck that slender, elegant appeal to complement your facial beauty.
Here are three neck contouring procedures she employs to deliver a customized approach to your neckline worries.
1: Liposuction
Unwanted chin fullness is a cosmetic concern shared by many women and men. Because your face and neck are discernible, excess neck fat can significantly impact your overall appearance. Fortunately, the popular body sculpting surgery liposuction help produces optimal results. Even though it’s a subtle enhancement, many find their liposuction benefits deliver an outstanding outcome and boost their self-esteem.
2: CoolSculpting
The popular fat reduction treatment CoolSculpting is an excellent option for unwanted fat pads. Its advanced cold therapy technology can freeze submental fat beneath the chin. In addition, stubborn fat in the chin area responds favorably to CoolSculpting because it easily fits into the device’s cooling applicator.
Since CoolSculpting requires no incisions, sutures, or extended downtime, it is a suitable treatment for most healthy people. Optimal candidates include women and men who struggle with excess fat tissue below the jawline and chin.
3: Neck Lift
A neck lift resolves loose skin along the jaw and neckline, often referred to as turkey neck. It helps deliver a youthful appearance and balanced facial profile. Our neck lift intervention in Madison, CT, requires minimal downtime and little to no visible scarring.
The procedure involves tiny incisions below the earlobes and beneath the chin. First, Dr. Donofrio trims excess skin to lift neck tissue to an elevated position before suturing. Next, she removes a section of tissue, then sutures the ends together toward the neck’s front area. Lastly, she connects facial tissue behind or beneath the ear to enhance neck firmness.
4: Kybella®
Another non-surgical option for double chin correction is Kybella®. This minimally invasive injectable gradually destroys fat cells with only a few sessions. With no surgery required, Kybella® helps restore youthful neck and chin contours.
Kybella® is an FDA-approved process for non-surgical fat reduction beneath the chin. It contains deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance found in your body. During normal body functions, deoxycholic acid helps break down and absorb dietary fat. So, when injected in the neck area, Kybella® destroys fat cells, which are later eliminated naturally through the body’s lymph system.
