Double chin and fat in the lower face
A double chin can come from fat under the chin, from sagging neck skin or from a mix of both, and genetics matter as much as weight. Telling which one dominates is what decides the treatment: fat and sagging are treated with different techniques. In consultation we examine the neck and jawline before proposing anything.
How we approach it
- Focused ultrasound, for firmness in the area
- Cryolipolysis, for localised fat under the chin
- Other medical techniques for double chin fat, depending on the assessment

Frequently asked questions
Is a double chin always fat?
No. Sometimes it is mainly sagging skin, and then treating the fat is not enough. That is why the medical examination comes before any proposal.
Does losing weight get rid of a double chin?
It can reduce it if there is excess weight, but slim people can have a double chin from genetics or sagging. In those cases local treatments make more sense.
How many sessions are needed?
It depends on the technique and the amount of fat or sagging. The doctor will propose a specific plan after the assessment.
What happens at the information visit?
It is a first visit with the doctor, at no cost, where we listen to you, examine the area and explain which options make sense in your case. There is no commitment to start any treatment.
