The sagging of the skin and fatty tissue under the lower jaw, which forms a double chin, does not only occur with age or due to excess weight gain. Often you can meet a young lady with a slender figure and a distinct fat sagging under the chin. Aesthetic medicine offers double opportunities for the correction of this defect, reminds estet-portal.com. One of them refers to the cosmetic effect on the neck area with the help of hardware tightening procedures. Another possibility – this is double chin surgery.
Cosmetic options for double chin correction
One of the most common reasons for the early formation of a double chin is considered to be a genetic predisposition to the formation of fat deposits under the lower jaw. This process is accelerated by hormonal fluctuations associated with pregnancy or entering the menopausal age.
The formation of a double chin is affected by incorrect posture and head position during work, rapid weight gain and rapid weight loss, increasing dryness and flabbiness of the skin.
In cases where the formation of a double chin is not due to too large fat deposits, it can be recommended to correct it using hardware cosmetic procedures.
• RF lifting. The procedure allows you to increase the firmness and elasticity of the skin, strengthen the muscles of the neck, break down fat cells. The patient sees a positive effect after the course of procedures.
• LPG massage. Hardware massage that promotes the breakdown of body fat due to mechanical action on the fat layer. The procedure activates metabolic processes, starting the burning of body fat. As a result, the oval of the face is tightened, the contour of the lower jaw improves.
• Phonophoresis.
Liposuction may be recommended in case of significant fat deposits in the neck area, forming a massive double chin.
This surgical intervention is appropriate when the skin has not lost its elasticity and is able to gradually shrink after removing excess fat.
The type of anesthesia and the technique of pumping fat is chosen by the surgeon depending on the task and the volume of intervention. Through small punctures in the skin, a drug is injected that destroys fat cells, and then excess fat is pumped out using cannulas. Then stitches are applied to the punctures, and on the neck – a tight bandage that allows the skin to contract faster. Double chin liposuction is often combined with aesthetic correction of the neck, lower third of the face, and contouring. The final result can be assessed after 3-4 months.
Age-related changes in the neck area, manifested by a second chin, may be due to weakened tone and divergence of the cervical muscles. In this case, the surgeon, through an incision under the chin in the natural skin fold, tightens and stitches the neck muscles in the desired position, forming the cervico-jaw angle. Next, excess fat is removed and, if necessary, excess sagging skin is excised.
The result of double chin correction is a clear contour of the face oval, reduction of wrinkles, and a significant rejuvenation of the appearance.
