Do you feel self-conscious about your double chin? You’re not alone. Stubborn fat under the chin can be resistant to diet and exercise, making it a frustrating problem.
But thanks to advancements in minimally invasive cosmetic treatments, you don’t have to live with a double chin forever. And if you really want to banish your double chin, we have a pair of treatments that work together for even better results.
Why Double Chins Are So Stubborn
Before we dive into this treatment duo, let’s talk about why double chins can be so challenging to get rid of on your own. Submental fat is often influenced by factors beyond your control, such as:
Genetics
Some people are simply more prone to storing fat under their chin due to their genetic makeup. If your parents or siblings have double chins, you may be more likely to develop one as well.
Aging
As we get older, our skin loses elasticity, and our muscles begin to slacken. This can cause the skin under our chin to sag and make any submental fat more noticeable.
Weight Fluctuations
While losing weight can help reduce the appearance of a double chin, it’s not always enough to eliminate it completely. If you lose weight, you may lose some of the fat but will be left with unsightly sagging.
Posture
Poor posture, such as constantly looking down at your phone or slouching at your desk, can weaken the muscles in your neck and chin and contribute to the appearance of a double chin over time.
Chin Liposuction + Morpheus 8
This is our favorite combo treatment for a double chin because it treats both excess fat accumulation and sagging skin.
Chin Liposuction
Chin liposuction is an outpatient procedure that can be done under local anesthetic (or with sedation if you choose). It is minimally invasive, with only very small incisions being utilized to physically remove fat from the chin area.
One of the best things about liposuction is that once those fat cells are gone, they’re gone for good. As long as you maintain a stable weight, you can enjoy your slimmer, more defined jawline for years.
Morpheus 8
Morpheus 8 is its own one-two punch for skin tightening. This cutting-edge procedure combines microneedling with radiofrequency waves to improve skin elasticity and tightness.
Microneedling involves creating extraordinarily tiny injuries to the skin to promote self-healing mechanisms, while RF waves reach deep into the skin to promote collagen production. While both methods are effective, combining them truly increases noticeable results.
Why Combine Chin Lipo and Morpheus 8?
Similarly, while both chin liposuction and Morpheus 8 can be effective on their own, we’ve found that combining the two treatments offers several advantages for our double chin reduction patients.
Comprehensive Fat Reduction
While you can get double chin reduction results by other treatment methods, chin liposuction and Morpheus 8 are the gold standard for maximum long-term results.
Tackle Multiple Causes
This treatment combination addresses both causes of a double chin rather than just one. When you remove excess fat cells and tighten your skin, your results will be even more dramatic.
Customizable Treatment Plans
Every patient’s chin is unique, and because these treatments are precise, we can tailor them to your specific needs and goals.
Chin Liposuction + Morpheus 8 Right for You?
If you’re bothered by a double chin, this combo might be right for you. However, keep in mind that for a very mild double chin, you may want to choose a different treatment option. If you are ready to address your
