Double Chin Removal

Eliminate stubborn chin and neck fat for a sharper, more confident profile

A pocket of fat beneath the chin can make you look heavier or older than you are — and no amount of dieting or exercise targets this area specifically. Double chin removal uses minimally invasive liposuction to permanently reduce the submental fat pad, sharpening the jawline and defining the neck-chin angle for a profile you'll actually like seeing in photographs.

Submental liposuction is performed under local anaesthesia through a single tiny incision beneath the chin, invisible once healed. The procedure takes under an hour and most patients return to work within a few days. For patients with mild fat and good skin elasticity, non-surgical options such as Aqualyx fat-dissolving injections are also available as an alternative to surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my double chin come back?

Liposuction permanently removes fat cells from the treated area. Weight gain can cause some recurrence, but the improvement is lasting with stable weight.

Is there any scarring?

The entry point for liposuction is a 3mm incision placed beneath the chin in a natural crease. It heals to a very small, concealed mark.
