Eliminate your double chin with safe, effective fat dissolving treatments.
Non-Surgical Facial Contouring
Double chin treatment in Melbourne may help reduce stubborn fat beneath the chin and improve definition through the neck and jawline. Also known as submental fullness, a double chin can develop due to genetics, ageing or changes in weight and may be difficult to improve through diet and exercise alone.
At Collins Cosmetic Clinic, treatment recommendations are tailored to your facial structure, concerns and desired outcome. Our experienced team will assess the area beneath the chin and discuss the most appropriate non-surgical options for creating a more defined and balanced profile.
Results and the number of treatments required will vary between patients. A personalised consultation allows us to explain the expected process, suitability, aftercare and likely outcome before you decide whether treatment is right for you.
We know double chins are a common problem that many people hate. We know from speaking to our patients that very few want surgery for their double chin with the associated downtime and possible scarring. We have become experienced in the non-surgical option of removing double chins and have improved the technique to include local anaesthetic to make it as pain free as possible. We recognise that there is an associated upfront cost but that the procedure is permanent and that we need to explain to patients that the initial expense needs to be spread over the many years of benefit.
Double chins are one of the most lamented age-related changes of the face and jaw, leaving countless men and women wishing to regain a sleek, contoured profile. A double chin forms due to fat deposits in front of the neck muscles, called preplatysmal fat deposits, creating a sagging, jowl-like silhouette.
Our double chin treatment involves a series of simple treatments that dissolve the superficial fat of the chin and neck and results in re-sculpting your jawline. The product delivered is a purified form of deoxycholic acid which occurs naturally within our bodies as a bile acid.
The double chin removal can be done in the rooms as a simple day appointment, allowing you to walk in and walk out straight after your treatment, which takes around 30-45 minutes. For best results, we recommend at least two treatments spaced around six weeks apart.
Double chin treatments with fat dissolving treatments are a fast, safe, day treatment that will allow you to regain a youthful contoured silhouette with minimal downtime.
Unlike anti-wrinkle treatments and other popular cosmetic treatments, double chin sculpting doesn’t need to be repeated once you have achieved your desired youthful result. This means an initial investment in this treatment lasts a lifetime!
We recommend avoiding excessive alcohol and high intensity exercise for twenty four hours before your appointment. This can help reduce the chance of bruising.
We recommend taking an anti-inflammatory tablet (eg Nurofen) on the morning of the treatment unless there are medical reasons not to take anti-inflammatories. Men must shave the jaw and neck area before treatment.
Swelling is an expected side effect of our double chin treatments and is usually at its peak within the first 24 hours. For this reason, we recommend you take a full day off work and avoid any social engagements until your swelling has settled.
