Double chin/Submental fat (SMF) is a growing aesthetic problem. It is a concern for both gender, young or old.
A double chin, is a common condition often associated with weight gain, genetics, looser skin resulting from aging. Fullness under the chin is often difficult to reduce even with healthy diet and exercise. It is acondition that occurs when a layer of fat forms below your chin.
Given the increasing patient demand in having this excess localised fat reduced, non-invasive methods have become increasingly available, and include injectable chemical adipocytolysis with deoxycholic acid (i.e. Kybella, Geolysis), cryolipolysis,HIFU and radiofrequency (RF)-assisted contouring device. The ideal candidate for these treatments are patients with a moderate to large amount of preplatysmal submental fat and no more than moderate laxity of the surrounding skin.
