Is it possible to remove a double chin without surgery?

Turning to a medical approach to get rid of your double chin remains the best option when diet and exercise are no longer enough. A source of complexes because it weighs down the face, the double chin can be treated by aesthetic medicine using non-invasive techniques that do not require surgery.

What is a double chin?

Various factors are responsible for this accumulation of fat under the lower jaw, resulting in a double chin:

• The genetic factor, which is very difficult to combat alone.
• The retracted position of the chin, known as the “receding chin”, reveals a prominent neck.
• Overweight, or a hormonal imbalance that causes fat to be stored in different areas of the body and face.
• Poor posture can cause muscle relaxation or swelling in the new neck area.
• Age can also lead to sagging of the skin in this area, resulting in a sagging oval of the face.

Why is it difficult to lose a double chin?

Losing weight doesn’t always guarantee the disappearance of a double chin, as this area is particularly difficult to target. In fact, weight loss is generally spread over the whole body.

In addition, physical exercise can be used to eliminate fat from areas of the body such as the stomach, buttocks and thighs, but it’s difficult to envisage working on the neck.

A few gadgets exist to reduce double chin, but their effectiveness is limited and their use tedious. Recourse to aesthetic medicine remains an optimal solution for achieving satisfactory results that last over time.

Can cryolipolysis remove a double chin without surgery?

At Epilium & Skin, we offer cryolipolysis, a cold slimming method that is particularly effective in eliminating fat accumulation under the chin. This non-invasive method requires no surgery and offers spectacular, long-lasting results in the reduction of localized and persistent fat deposits.

The cryolipolysis technique not only destroys localized fat, but also tautens skin tissue to redefine the oval of the face for both men and women.

Cold technology for fat destruction

We offer Coolsculpting cryolipolysis, which uses the cellular response to cold to break down adipose tissue. This procedure uses cooling technology to target and eliminate fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body as waste.

Our aesthetic doctors specializing in this technique use the Cool Mini applicator specially designed for this area of the chin. To do this, the doctor places an applicator under the chin to cool the area to a temperature low enough to destroy fat cells without damaging surrounding tissue.

Safe, high-performance treatment

The
Coolsculpting
is the ideal equipment for eliminating localized fat, while guaranteeing treatment safety. FDA-approved and CE-certified, Coolsculpting remains the most effective and widely used cryolipolysis machine for body contouring without surgery.

You will be welcomed at our Epilium & Skin centers for a free initial consultation with one of our aesthetic physicians specializing in body contouring. He or she will carry out an examination to ensure that there are no medical contraindications to the treatment, and will take photographs of your face, which will be carefully preserved so that you can visualize the results once the treatment is complete.

The results of cryolipolysis can take several weeks to appear, as the body needs time to eliminate dead cells. Adipocytes will be permanently destroyed and naturally eliminated over the weeks following each session.
