The good news is that there are several techniques you may use to reduce the development of your double chin; if not, do away with it.
It’s standard advice to keep a strong head and chin, but it’s not always simple to achieve when someone else is putting pressure on you. Even though having a double chin isn’t always reflective of poor health, it can still have a negative impact on your confidence and social life.
Let’s talk about how to get double chin removal and reduce your jawline.
Double chin causes?
“Double chin” is caused by submental fat (the area underneath the chin). Below-jaw fat has several causes. People with flabby skin or who struggle to reduce weight are more likely to have a double chin. Changes in body weight can cause the skin to expand and contract, causing a double chin.
Our skin loses elasticity as we age, which causes a double chin. While it’s a challenge to prevent a double chin, it can minimize.
How to Get Removal of a Double Chin the Natural Ways?
You wouldn’t believe how quickly and easily you can get double chin reduction in the comfort of your own home. Regular exercise is one of the best ways to keep the fat off our bodies. You can reduce your double chin over time by working the muscles in that area. For best results, do these routine exercises:
- Slow neck rolls and rotations.
- For ten seconds at a time, stretch your tongue up and out.
- Chin pushes with a resistance ball instead of performing the exercise without the ball.
- Keeping a forward-jutting position of the lower jaw.
- Puckering your lips and head cocked backward.
Regularly engaging your jaw muscles through the act of chewing gum will help you lose that pesky double chin. As a bonus, regular full-body activity (including aerobic and strength training) can help you lose weight and reduce your double chin.
Maintaining a healthy diet is another strategy for losing that double chin. Cut back on processed and fried foods and sugary and fatty snacks, and increase your intake of vegetables and fruits.
On the other hand, some fats, such as omega-3 fatty acids, are suitable for your skin and health. These fats can be found in foods, including avocados, almonds, olive oil, and fish. Dietary changes alone may not be enough to get your double chin treatment, but they may help you lose weight.
What Is the Difference Between a Turkey Neck and a Double Chin?
A double chin is caused by the formation of an additional layer of fat behind the chin. Although it is frequently connected with weight gain, this is not always the case. Double chins can also be caused by heredity or looser skin as you get older.
The term “Turkey neck” refers to wrinkled, drooping skin on the neck, which is a common aging symptom. Turkey’s neck is caused by the chin muscles weakening and the suppleness of the neck skin decreasing.
Luckily, there are various non-surgical methods for removing a double chin or “turkey neck”! Here are some excellent non-surgical alternatives:
Double Chin Treatment
Sometimes, even in excellent health, that double chin won’t go away. Cosmetic dermatological procedures can help with this problem. You should expect these therapies to work on the kind of fat that you can’t lose with diet or exercise alone.
Non Surgical and Surgical Treatment
1. Facial Moisturizers.
Using a moisturizer with vitamins and plant extracts that stimulate collagen production is an excellent first step in regaining your skin’s supple, young appearance. Check out the options marketed as “neck tightening” or “neck firming” products. Vitamin C, green tea extracts, collagen, and other ingredients are standard in such items.
2. Gadgets include wands, straps, and mouthpieces.
There are also a variety of tools you can employ to get rid of that double chin. To restore the skin’s elasticity, chin applicators cling to the skin and are injected with ingredients such as collagen, caffeine, and vitamins.
Fastened belts and straps can tighten chin and jawline skin. In addition, mouth pieces make it easier to engage in jaw workouts that promote muscular development and fat loss.
3. Massage techniques.
A double chin can be reduced by using a massage for the neck. These techniques can promote fat loss, enhance circulation, and increase collagen formation, all of which contribute to supple skin.
Liposuction
If you tried different diets and exercise regimes, but you can’t remove fat you may consider getting liposuction. A plastic or dermatologic surgeon can perform liposuction on your tummy, thighs, arms, chin and face, as well as hips, buttocks, and back.
The procedure is safe, however, to be a candidate, you need to be in a good health, have elastic and firm skin, and be within 30% of your ideal weight. If you suffer from cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or a weak immune system you may not be a suitable candidate.
You should always discuss your goals, potential risks, and expected results with your surgeon. Your doctor will guide you on how to prepare for the procedure. You may need to change your diet, and reduce alcohol intake or medication consumption.
Risks
Although liposuction is a safe treatment, it is still a cosmetic procedure. After the surgery, you may go home or you need to stay in the hospital. This will depend on the amount of fat you have removed.
In either scenario, you may experience soreness, bruising, or swelling. You may need to take some antibiotics, so you won’t develop infections.
Additionally, your surgeon may recommend you wear a compression garment to control swelling after the surgery. You may need to wear it for 1 to 2 months.
If your healing goes well, you will be able to return to your normal duties soon after the surgery.
However, some of the potential risks of liposuction could include:
- Bleeding
- Blood clot
- Reactions to anesthesia or lidocaine
- Fluid accumulation
- Infections
- Uneven fat removal
- Shock
- Burns from instruments
- Change in skin sensations
- Damage to abdominal organs, nerves, blood vessels, or muscles
Non-Surgical Procedures
Time Freeze Laser Lift
By pure laser energy to stimulate collagen and elastin production, Time Freeze Laser acts to tighten and lift the double chin. Apart from double chin, it also allows the jowls and nasolabial fold that sags to lift. Find out more on Time Freeze Laser here.
Body Sculpting
Non-surgical treatment of double chin and sagging jowl reduction is CoolSculpting. This procedure helps to remove neck fat using cooling with the use of a specialised applicator.
During the procedure, fat cells are frozen, crystallised, and then broken down. There is no downtime needed with this procedure, as the fat will gradually disperse over the period of 3 to 6 months. This can be achieved due to the body’s metabolism that removes the fat cells.
The whole treatment takes anything from 35 to 60 minutes.
Some of the benefits of CoolSculpting are neck fat reduction of up to 27% and recontouring and toning of the shape of the neck. You can see results after 8 weeks.
Ultherapy
Another treatment to get rid of fat deposits is ultherapy. Ultherapy maximises the results of lifting and tightening neck skin and decolletage area. This type of treatment can proceed after CoolSculpting.
The ultrasound applicator used during the procedure boosts collagen and elastin production. This has a long-term effect as these proteins will start naturally replenishing themselves.
In addition, ultherapy tightens neck skin, improves skin tone, and sharpens your chin. There is also no downtime with this treatment.
3D Facial Reconstruction
Another alternative to get rid of fat deposits is 3D Facial Reconstruction. 3D Facial Reconstruction specifically target stubborn fat deposits across the face and neck area, allowing for lifting and tightening of skin and resculpting of the facial fats structures. This treatment is the go to solution with definitive results and is highly recommended for specific targeted zones such as the jowls, double chin and nasolabial folds. Another specific area that it can target is that of protruding eyebags, where it can grant long term results of eyebag reduction.
Surgical radiofrequency used during the procedure stimulates collagen and elastin production. It also generates a long-term effect to restructure the facial fat regions which allow for a V shaped facelift result.
In addition, 3D Facial Reconstruction is also selected to target specific body regions which are recalcitrant to Coolsculpting.. There is some mild downtime with this treatment.
