Treatments for Double Chin Removal
- Long-pulsed Nd YAG laser
The long-pulsed Nd YAG laser can be calibrated to target adipocytes (fat cells) in the submental area. Heating the target area to a specific temperature leads to fat cell destruction and reduction in the size of the double chin. Similarly, the laser can also be adjusted to target the overlying skin and stimulate collagen and elastin formation, improving skin tightness.
- HIFU/Ultherapy
High intensity focused ultrasound treatment can be used in the double chin area to break down adipocytes as well as stimulate collagen and elastin in the overlying skin. This results in reduction of the fat volume and tightening of the skin in the double chin area.
- Injectable Fillers
Fillers are used to specifically target the issue of poor chin and jaw structure. Fillers can be injected into the chin and along the jawline to reinforce and simulate bone structure, increasing support to the double chin area and effectively reducing the visible size of the double chin.
At Zion Aesthetic Clinic, each individual’s specific problems will be analysed during consultation and the correct combination of treatment techniques that will give the highest chance of delivering optimal results will be advised.

FAQs on Double Chin Removal Treatment in Singapore
Treatments for double chin need to specifically target the individual factors that are responsible for your problems. Depending on the causes for your double chin, usually excess fat, loose skin or poor bone structure, it may be necessary to use more than one type of treatment to produce optimal results.
For heat-based treatments such as the laser and high intensity focused ultrasound, treatment results are usually visible 1 month onwards but may take 3 months to become more obvious. Injectable fillers usually deliver immediate improvement but similarly may take 2-4 weeks to stabilise as the fillers need time to integrate with the tissues.
First and foremost it is important to adopt a healthy and active lifestyle to prevent fat redeposition in the submental area. Maintenance with lasers, high intensity focused ultrasound, and fillers is also necessary at regular intervals which will be recommended by the doctor.
