How do I Get Rid of Double Chin
Why doesn't diet and exercise work to get rid of my double chin? I'm only 27 and I can't remember when I first noticed the collection of fat under my chin. My diet is strict and I exercise all the time, but nothing changes. Is chin liposuction the only or best way to get rid of the double chin?
Chin liposuction
Submental liposuction can be a very effective way to correct excess fat beneath your chin. The key is your skin elasticity. For patients that have a minimum of excess skin liposuction can correct the contour quickly with low down time. Be sure to find a board certified plastic surgeon to help with your decision. I hope this helps.
Kybella (deoxycholic acid) is the first and only FDA-approved injectable treatment for reduction of submental fat (double chin). Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring molecule that aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. When injected into subcutaneous fat beneath the chin, it destroys fat cells permanently.
The American Board of Plastic Surgery maintains rigorous standards for certification that go well beyond state medical licensing requirements.
