Procedures

Double Chin Liposuction

It is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that removes excess fat accumulated beneath the chin (submental area), helping to define the contour of the neck and jawline. Through small incisions, a cannula is inserted to suction out localized fat.

 

In some cases, it can be combined with:

  • Neck lift if there is significant skin laxity
  • Fractional CO₂ laser to improve skin tightening and retraction
