Double Chin & Stubborn Fat
This is body contouring, not weight loss — an important distinction. These treatments address localised pockets in people already near their stable weight; they are not a weight-management programme and we do not present them as one.
What people usually notice
- A fullness under the chin that photographs badly
- Areas that stay put while the rest of you changes
- Clothes fitting unevenly
- A jawline obscured by fullness rather than by laxity
What commonly contributes
- Genetically determined fat distribution
- Age-related changes in where fat sits
- Weight change history
- Sometimes skin laxity rather than fat, which is treated differently
This page describes what is common, not what is true of you. Only an examination can say which of these applies.
What a doctor may consider
Which of these suits you — and whether any of them is needed at all — is decided at the consultation, not from this page.
What the consultation settles
The first thing the doctor establishes is whether the fullness is fat, muscle or loose skin, because all three look similar in a mirror and none of them respond to the others' treatment.
