Removal of the double chin

In many cases, the double chin is a disturbing factor, e.g. in profile photos or when the head is tilted backwards and a disturbing fold of skin and a disturbing body of fat spoil the view. In plastic surgery, there are various techniques for correcting the double chin and tightening the excess skin - some of these techniques even involve no scarring at all.

A double chin, medically referred to as submental fat, occurs when excess fatty tissue accumulates under the chin. This aesthetic problem affects people of all ages and weights. It can be genetic or develop as a result of weight gain, sagging skin or age-related changes.
For many people, a double chin is undesirable and can affect self-esteem. Fortunately, there are several treatment options available, including non-invasive methods such as cryolipolysis and Kybella, as well as minimally invasive procedures such as liposuction and MyEllevate®.
Find out how these innovative approaches can help improve the appearance of a double chin and find the right solution for your individual needs. Modern aesthetic technologies can help you say goodbye to your double chin and achieve a more confident, harmonious appearance.
The Praxisklinik am Rosengarten has various technologies that can help to remove the double chin and tighten the skin on the neck. In this text, we will introduce you to the most common treatment options:
Liposuction of the double chin: Disruptive fat deposits in the neck area can be removed by liposuction of the double chin. Modern procedures such as water-jet assisted liposuction (Bodyjet, WAL liposuction) are available at the Rosengarten Clinic for this purpose.
Liposuction and neck lift: In addition to the double chin liposuction procedures mentioned above, we can also use certain devices that simultaneously tighten the skin. These include techniques such as radiofrequency tightening (BodyTite) or skin tightening with the argon laser (ArgoPlasma, plasma laser) or the Leonardo laser.
Minimally invasive neck skin tightening with MyEllevate®: We have a separate page for this: Find out more about MyEllevate®.
Open removal of excess skin: Excess skin, especially after liposuction of the double chin, can also be removed using incision techniques. On the one hand, the techniques of the lower facelift, neck lift and open neck lift can be used here. In the latter technique, a fine incision is made under the chin to remove the excess skin. A larger technique involves zigzagging along the neck to the décolleté to remove excess skin.
As you can see, at Praxisklinik am Rosengarten we offer all the important technologies for double chin removal and can offer you the right treatment for almost any initial situation.
