Unlock Your Self Confidence with Double Chin Treatment
A double chin, also known as submental fat, can significantly impact one’s self-esteem and hinder confidence, seeking many people to wonder how they can get rid of a double chin. At Bellarine Medical Aesthetics, we understand the emotional and aesthetic challenges posed by a double chin and can help get rid of it using a non-surgical approach to treatment. What sets us apart is our commitment to providing unparalleled care during the treatment, where double chin injections are exclusively administered by our qualified medical doctor, Dr Justin Evans, ensuring the highest level of expertise and safety for our patients.
What Causes a Double Chin
The cause of a double chin is often associated with weight gain, however, this is not always the case. Even individuals with a healthy Body Mass Index (BMI) may experience a double chin due to genetic factors, ageing, or lifestyle choices.
Non-Surgical Double Chin Removal
Even when following appropriate diet and exercise advice, the fat in the submental area can be difficult to reduce naturally, without medical intervention. This has given rise to a number of surgical and non-surgical treatment options to remove the submental fat beneath the chin with the purpose of creating a more contoured neck and jawline. At Bellarine Medical Aesthetics, we perform highly effective, long-lasting, non-surgical reduction of double chins by injection.
Double Chin Injection
Administered by our experienced medical doctor, this non-surgical treatment involves subcutaneous injection of deoxycholic acid, a prescription-only medication that permanently destroys fat cells in the submental area. Once destroyed, fat cells no longer have the ability to store fat resulting in the slimming and tightening of the submental skin. Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring compound in the body that is involved in the regulation of fats and fat storage.
- Treatment Process: Our approach to double chin removal involves a personalised treatment plan designed to meet your specific goals. The injection is administered by our medical doctor into the submental area and usually requires 2 treatments, however, depending on severity may require between 2 – 6 treatments each spaced 4 weeks apart to dissolve the fat and obtain the desired result.
- Results: Gradual and long-lasting, with full results typically visible after completing the recommended treatment course, with no further treatment being required.
- Safety: Our medical doctor provides the highest standard of care, ensuring a safe and minimally invasive experience.
