Double Chin
Double chin treatment at MedSkincare Laser Centre in Whitby, Ontario targets submental fat, the pocket of fullness beneath the chin, with non-surgical, physician-led options. A double chin is common and is often influenced by genetics rather than weight alone, which is why it can persist even in people who are otherwise fit. Our team helps you understand your options and which approach best suits your anatomy and goals.
What Causes a Double Chin
Submental fullness can result from genetics, weight, aging, and skin laxity, often in combination. Because the underlying cause influences the best treatment, your provider examines the area and discusses whether your concern is primarily fat, skin laxity, or both before recommending a plan.
Treatments We Use for the Double Chin
Belkyra
Belkyra is an injectable treatment that contains deoxycholic acid, a substance that targets and destroys fat cells beneath the chin. Once treated, those fat cells can no longer store fat, and results develop over a series of sessions as the area gradually refines. Belkyra is a popular non-surgical option specifically designed for submental fullness, and your provider will determine how many sessions you are likely to need.
SculpSure
SculpSure uses laser energy to target fat cells and can be applied to the submental area to help reduce fullness beneath the chin. It is non-invasive with no required downtime, making it a convenient option for patients who prefer a laser-based approach. Your provider will advise whether Belkyra, SculpSure, or a combination best fits your goals.
