Double Chin
Reduction Treatments
Reduce Double Chin
The double chin, also known as submental fat, is an accumulation of fat and loose skin beneath the jawline that can be caused by factors such as aging, genetics, weight gain, or loss of skin elasticity. There are several medical and aesthetic treatments designed to reduce the double chin and improve the contour of the neck and jawline.
