Refine the jawline and restore facial definition by addressing excess fullness beneath the chin. At AderaMD Aesthetics, we offer physician-led treatments designed to reduce submental fat and enhance natural contours for a more balanced, confident profile.
Defined Contours, Naturally Refined
A double chin, also known as submental fullness, can occur regardless of age or body weight. Genetics, aging, and fat distribution all play a role in the accumulation of fullness beneath the chin, which can soften the jawline and obscure facial definition. While diet and exercise may improve overall health, they often have little effect on localized fat in this area. Advanced aesthetic treatments allow us to precisely target submental fat and restore a more sculpted lower face. At AderaMD Aesthetics, our approach emphasizes natural refinement without surgery.
Common Concerns Associated With a Double Chin:
- Fullness beneath the chin
- Loss of jawline definition
- Heaviness in profile view
- Aged or unbalanced facial contours
Your Double Chin Treatment
Your experience begins with a comprehensive consultation to assess submental fullness, skin quality, and overall facial balance. We evaluate whether excess fat is the primary concern before developing a personalized treatment plan. When appropriate, treatment focuses on safely reducing fat beneath the chin while preserving surrounding structures and maintaining natural contours.
Your Double Chin Treatment Option
Kybella®
Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment specifically designed to reduce submental fat. Formulated with deoxycholic acid, a substance naturally found in the body, Kybella works by breaking down and permanently destroying fat cells beneath the chin. Once treated fat cells are eliminated, they cannot store or accumulate fat again. Over a series of treatments, the area gradually becomes slimmer and more contoured, revealing a more defined jawline and profile.
Double Chin Improvement FAQs
What Causes a Double Chin?
A double chin can be caused by genetics, aging-related changes, weight fluctuations, or fat distribution beneath the chin.
How Many Kybella Treatments Are Needed?
Most patients require a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart. The exact number depends on the amount of submental fat and desired outcome.
What Is Recovery Like?
Swelling is common after Kybella treatment and is a normal part of the fat breakdown process. Temporary tenderness, firmness, or bruising may occur and typically resolves over time.
How Long Do Results Last?
Results are long-lasting, as treated fat cells are permanently destroyed. Maintaining a stable weight helps preserve outcomes.
