How To Get Rid of A Double Chin: Treatment Options
In recent years, the concept and possibility of reducing the fat that lies under the chin, a concern shared almost equally between men and women, has become much more of an achievable reality due to the advancements in non-invasive Aesthetic treatments.
If you are trying to get rid of a double chin or improve your jawline without undergoing invasive surgery, then you have two options that will provide noticeable results for a prolonged period of time. The first option is the most common, fat freezing while the second is less well known but equally as effective, the treatment chosen will depend on your specific requirements. Here’s everything you need to know about them both…
Double Chin & Fat Freezing
What is Fat Freezing?
Fat freezing has been here in the UK for some time now, with the procedure being carried out at Clinic 33 ever since 2012. In fact, fat freezing is now quite often favoured over liposuction as it leaves no incisions or scarring, additionally no bandages or compression garments are required.
How does Fat Freezing work?
This discreet treatment that only takes 35 minutes and 99% of the time leaves no bruising. The treatment works by controlled cooling of an exact target area, Cryotherapy as it also known by, freezes this area down to a temperature where subcutaneous cell apoptosis, takes place. Your body then flushes the waste product of these cells out through your lymphatic system over the coming weeks leaving a much-reduced area of fat.
What happens to my skin?
If the treatment were instant, then we would have a problem with skin elasticity therefore, it takes a few weeks (3 – 8) for your body to process the change in cell structure and subsequent reduction, elastin and collagen can react and adjust without compromise. That’s when you’ll see results.

LIPOFIRM PRO
Facial Contouring
The second option available for those looking to reduce their double chin or improve their jawline is Tri Polar Radio Frequency, branded as Lipofirm Pro facial contouring. This treatment is slightly more involved and more costly than fat freezing, however it does offer something different.
Jawline Coutouring Treatment FAQ’s
In this case you will either need Lipofirm Pro facial contouring by itself or if there is a large amount of fat to be removed then Fat Freezing will need to be performed as well. The settings of the Lipofirm Pro can be tweaked to focus more on fat reduction or more on lifting and tightening.
This will be ascertained in the consultation, but as a guide if you have a large amount of fat directly under the centre of your chin then Fat Freezing will be the one. If you have a layer of fat and/ or loose skin from one side of your jaw to the other, then Lipofirm Pro will be the one. Fat Freezing is quite simply fat reduction, Lipofirm Pro is contouring. If needed the 2 can be combined.
Both treatments are non-invasive and offer long lasting results. Neither treatment is classed as painful or uncomfortable.
Radio Frequency treatments use energy to heat the skin with the purpose of stimulating cutaneous collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid production. The outcome of this is the reduction of loose skin and improvement of fine lines and wrinkles. The Clinc 33 brand of choice for this treatment, Lipofirm Pro, also has an additional technology that works alongside Radio Frequency called DMA (dynamic muscle activation). DMA delivers low frequency pulsed currents to the underlying skin muscles and provides simultaneous external and internal pressure on the fat layer. The combined forces ‘squeeze’ the fat layer, encouraging the fat to drain via the lymphatic system.
By operating both the TriLipo Radio Frequency and TriLipo DMA in conjunction with each other, this treatment’s effect on the hypodermal fat layer and superficial muscle layer is currently unrivalled from a result standpoint.
This treatment is done in sessions with the results compounding over time. The amount of sessions will be between 6 – 12 (normally once per week) with each session taking just over an hour in length.
