A little pouch of skin under the chin may be cute on babies but not so cute when you see it in the mirror. Men and women will consider everything from fad diets to extreme surgeries to find a remedy for their bothersome double chin. Luckily there are minimally invasive options which offer successful and immediate results.
What Causes a Double Chin?
A double chin is most often caused by being overweight. Posture can also affect your chin and as muscles become weak around the face, the chin will droop or sag. However, there are factors outside most people’s control which cause a double chin such as age and a genetic predisposition for storing extra weight and water in that area of the face.
How Can a Double Chin Be Treated?
• Exilis. Using a revolutionary patented technology that delivers ultrasonic waves and controlled heating to the tissue, Exilis precisely targets deeper fat layers while contact cooling of the surface regulates the temperature of the skin and protects fine dermal structures. Not only will your fat cell volume decrease, but your skin will tighten and become younger-looking.
• Medical Weight Loss. Trained physicians can personalize a weight loss program that will target your double chin and other problem areas. This program combines lipid analysis, low glycemic impact eating, and nutrition education. It also provides an essential plan for losing weight, and the motivation needed to maintain a healthy new lifestyle. At your first appointment, you will have an extensive blood work evaluation, EKG, medical history, physical exam, as well as an in depth conference concerning eating habits.
• Mesotherapy. Stubborn fat deposits under the chin can be reduced with a series of minimally-invasive injections. Our experience has shown that this treatment is most effective when combined with a healthy diet and exercise. While still a recent treatment option, our clients have been very satisfied their results.
