The reason for today's blog post is the recent increase in inquiries from our clients. Our clients are women and men of different ages who are trying to find a solution to their double chin problem to support their beauty and well-being. We often hear that they have lost weight or that the problem is hereditary, and getting rid of the double chin is a long-held dream

What causes a double chin?

The causes of double chin formation are diverse and can affect people of all ages and body types. Based on our extensive experience, a double chin is one of the biggest aesthetic issues for many women and men. A double chin, commonly known as a 'chin roll,' can occur in different people regardless of their body shape and weight. Contrary to popular belief that a double chin is a concern for curvy individuals, this issue is actually familiar to slim people of all ages. Today, a double chin can be treated and resolved, and in this blog, we will discuss modern approaches to addressing the double chin problem.

Some main causes of a double chin are:

👉 Genetic predisposition: natural tendency to develop a double chin

👉 Posture: Poor posture can lead to the weakening of the neck and chin muscles and skin sagging, which promotes fat accumulation in the chin area.

👉 Fat distribution in the body: Weight gain or extreme diets can cause the redistribution of fat in the body, including the chin area.

👉 Late pregnancy phase and fluid retention: In the final months of pregnancy, fluid retention can cause temporary double chin, which may persist even after childbirth.

👉 Aging: As we age, collagen production decreases, leading to skin loosening and potentially causing the development of a double chin.

Exercise and nutrition

Various exercises help strengthen the muscles of the neck, chin, and jaw, as well as tighten them. However, they do not necessarily reduce fat deposits or improve skin elasticity to the desired extent. Muscles and fat are different tissues, so while you can target specific areas to increase muscle mass, it doesn't always result in reducing fat stores or achieving the desired skin tightening.

If a double chin has developed due to weight gain, healthy eating and regular exercise can help reduce it, but this is not always a guaranteed solution to the double chin problem. Nutrition and exercise are essential supportive elements and should be on your priority list.

Effective solutions to the double chin problem

Cryolipolysis (fat freezing)

This method uses cooling technology to freeze fat cells beneath the skin's surface without damaging the skin itself. The freezing process essentially destroys fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated from the body through metabolic processes. Achieving the desired results typically requires multiple sessions (depending on the size of the treated area).

Facial massage

Facial massage, especially in the area of the double chin, is beneficial for improving skin circulation, relieving muscle tension, and enhancing skin elasticity. Combined with other measures, this contributes to improving the appearance or preventing the development of a double chin. Plastiline näomassaaž – Melior Clinics

HIFU

Fat reduction treatment using ultrasound utilizes ultrasound energy to safely destroy fat cells up to 4.5 millimeters deep beneath the skin. In addition to fat reduction, this treatment has another advantage – it provides a tightening effect on the skin. During the treatment, the heat generated stimulates your own collagen fibers, causing them to contract and regenerate, further tightening the chin area. Ultrasound fat reduction is an excellent choice for those with moderate sagging under the chin. HIFU Smas-Lifting – Melior Clinics

Lipolytics

Lipolytics are an injectable treatment method that acts locally as fat breakdown agents. Lipolytics are substances that promote fat breakdown and removal from the body. They enhance the breakdown of fat cells (lipolysis) or reduce fat cell accumulation. Lipolytics can be natural compounds or synthetically manufactured substances that leverage the body's own biochemical processes to regulate fat metabolism. Lipolüütik Dr. Lipo V – Melior Clinics 

Fillers

Clients who do not have a double chin but whose chin blends smoothly with the neck have found a solution with us through dermal fillers. Dermal fillers do not remove fat, but they are often used to contour and define the chin and jawline. This method is particularly popular among clients looking to add more structure to their face. The results are natural and subtle, so if you are seeking a dramatic effect, this may be the suitable method for you. Täitesüstid Revolax Sub Q – Melior Clinics

Collagen stimulation

To improve the appearance of a double chin, especially with loose skin, we use collagen stimulation methods such as Radiesse and threads. Both methods stimulate collagen production, which enhances skin structure and firmness. These procedures achieve a lifting and tightening effect that significantly improves the appearance of the double chin. Radiesse – Melior Clinics
