How Double Chin Treatment works
Depending on the cause, treatment may include lipolysis injections to reduce localized fat, focused ultrasound or radiofrequency for tissue tightening, and contouring treatments for jawline balance.
Facial Rejuvenation
Double Chin Treatment
Treat fat, laxity and jawline definition as separate problems.
A double chin can be caused by localized submental fat, skin laxity, anatomy or a combination of these factors. That is why one treatment does not suit every patient.

Dr. Nivine’s approach
Dr. Nivine’s approach
Dr. Nivine assesses fat thickness, skin elasticity and facial proportions before selecting treatment. Reducing fat without addressing lax skin can worsen the appearance in some patients, so the sequence matters.

Combination treatment
A combined approach
Some patients benefit from combining Double Chin Treatment with treatments that address a different layer. Depending on the concern, Dr. Nivine may consider Lipolysis Injections, Ultraformer, Morpheus8, Dermal Fillers. The plan stays as simple as possible, with additional treatments introduced only when they add a clear benefit.
