Description of Concern:

A double chin—medically known as submental fullness - refers to the accumulation of fat or loose skin beneath the chin, which can soften jawline definition and create a heavier appearance in the lower face. While completely harmless, it’s a common aesthetic concern that can affect individuals regardless of age or body type.


Clients often express frustration with a double chin that doesn’t improve with weight loss or healthy living. It may cause self-consciousness in photos, social anxiety, or dissatisfaction with side profile angles. There’s a widespread myth that only surgery can treat a double chin, but in reality, non-invasive and minimally invasive options can deliver noticeable, confidence-restoring results.

What Causes It?

Several factors can contribute to a double chin. For many, it’s simply a genetic predisposition, where fat naturally collects beneath the chin regardless of overall body weight. For others, the cause may be age-related changes, such as collagen loss, skin laxity, or downward tissue migration.


Environmental influences, such as poor posture (tech neck), sedentary lifestyles, and significant weight fluctuations, can also contribute to the development or persistence of submental fullness. As skin loses elasticity with age, it becomes more difficult for the area under the chin to remain firm and lifted.

Treatments Available Include:

  • Fat-Dissolving Injections – Precisely target and break down stubborn fat under the chin using deoxycholic acid-based solutions such as Aqualyx.
  • PDO Threads – Provide a non-surgical lift to the neck and jawline while stimulating collagen production for longer-term improvement.
  • Skin Boosters (e.g. Profhilo) – Improve hydration and firmness in the chin and jaw area, tightening loose or crepey skin.
  • PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) – Stimulates natural skin rejuvenation, tightening skin and improving texture beneath the chin.
  • Microneedling – Boosts collagen in the neck and submental region to improve skin tone and elasticity.
  • Exosomes – Support cell regeneration and fat regulation for long-term submental contouring.
  • LED Therapy – Enhances skin recovery and collagen production post-treatment while reducing inflammation.
  • Dermal Fillers – In some cases, strategic filler placement in the jawline or chin can enhance profile definition and improve proportions.
  • Wrinkle-Relaxing Injections (Botox) – Can be used in the platysmal bands (neck muscles) to reduce downward pull and redefine the lower face.
  • Chemical Peels – Help improve overall skin tone and firmness in the treated area.
  • Prescription Skincare – Can support ongoing tightening and contouring through retinoids or firming agents, as part of a holistic approach.
