The double chin is a collection of fat located under the chin. Due to its position, the fat appears to act as a second chin leading to an unaesthetic appearance. This is a common complaint among individuals with additional fat under their chin. It not only impacts a person’s profile, it has an alarming effect on their neckline too.
4 Causes of The Double Chin
The double chin is primarily cited as a progressive development, meaning it doesn’t appear overnight. In general, a person will notice the development of additional fat under their chin over a larger timespan (months or years). Based on this, an aesthetic change or treatment is sought by the patient.
Causes include:
- Genetic Predisposition
- Excessive Weight Gain
- Loss of Soft Tissue Elasticity
- Facial Aging
Before seeking treatment, patients are asked to set up a consultation to determine what the cause of their double chin is. Until this is figured out, the appropriate procedure cannot be established. At Shiny Lotus, we provide an all-in-one consultation at the facility to patients seeking immediate treatment. Based on the information offered in the consultation, a patient can have their treatment booked to eliminate fat under their chin.
Ideal Candidate For Double Chin
To receive treatment, a patient must showcase a clear “double chin” without an established medical history. Patients with underlying medical conditions are asked to seek medical assistance before signing up for a procedure.
To determine the viability of a patient’s case, the clinic will carry out a thorough examination of the chin area. If accepted, the patient will have a date set for his/her procedure.
