A double chin can appear for many reasons — and it's far more common than people realise. Genetics, ageing, weight gain, and natural changes in soft tissue can all lead to chin fat, neck fat, excess fat, or small pockets of stubborn fat settling beneath the jawline. Even people who maintain a healthy lifestyle, a balanced diet, and regular exercise can develop a double chin, as the area is often resistant to traditional fat-reduction methods.

As we age, the skin naturally loses collagen and skin elasticity, which can exaggerate the look of a double chin, especially when combined with mild skin laxity, excess skin, or changes in the neck area. These factors can make the lower face look heavier and less defined, creating a shadow under the chin even at a healthy weight.

Modern double chin removal treatments target this concern without the risks, costs, or downtime associated with double chin surgery, neck lifts, or other invasive procedures. At Lace Market Aesthetics, our non-surgical approach focuses on:

• Reducing fat in the chin and neck area

• Targeting fat cells safely and effectively

• Tightening the skin to lift and refine the jawline

• Supporting a natural, contoured appearance without harsh angles

Whether your concern is hereditary, weight-related, or due to gradual changes in your facial structure, non-invasive options provide a reliable way to improve definition and restore confidence.

HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a popular non-surgical solution for clients with mild to moderate double chins, especially when the concern is more about skin laxity than excess volume. HIFU works by delivering focused energy deep below the skin, stimulating collagen production and improving skin tightening, firmness, and lift.

This treatment is ideal for:

• Improving skin elasticity

• Lifting the neck area and lower face

• Reducing the appearance of loose skin

• Enhancing definition without downtime

Most patients notice a natural lifting effect within a few weeks, with further improvements as new collagen develops. Results progress gradually, supporting a refreshed, youthful appearance without the need for a surgical procedure.

If your primary concern is stubborn fat pockets under the chin, our combination of fat freezing and Radio Frequency is an effective option for double chin reduction and chin reshaping.

Fat freezing targets fat cells by cooling them to a precise temperature where the body's lymphatic system naturally eliminates them over time. Following the freeze, Radio Frequency energy warms the tissues to stimulate skin tightening, improve smoothness, and further contour the jaw and neck.

This treatment is ideal for:

• Reducing excess fat and chin fat

• Addressing small pockets of stubborn fat

• Improving the look of double chins without pain or downtime

• Supporting a firmer, tighter skin surface after fat reduction

You may experience mild swelling or tenderness in the treated area, but most patients return to normal activities straight away. With several treatments, you can expect noticeable improvements in definition, contour, and overall profile balance.

Our double chin removal treatments are designed to gradually refine the chin area, reduce chin fat, and improve the appearance of double chins while supporting natural definition and a smoother lower face profile. Because every client's soft tissue, skin, and fat distribution is different, your results will be tailored to your unique needs and goals.

Most patients notice early improvements as swelling settles and the skin begins to feel tighter, with more visible contouring developing over the following few weeks. As the body continues to reduce fat and stimulate collagen, your results become more defined, helping you achieve a balanced, sculpted profile without the need for surgery.

How Many Sessions Will You Need

Depending on the amount of excess fat, skin laxity, and the chosen treatment, you may require several treatments to achieve optimal results. During your free consultation, your practitioner will assess the treated area and create a plan that supports your desired outcome while maintaining realistic expectations.

Fat freezing with Radio Frequency often requires more than one session as the body processes the affected fat cells, while HIFU typically delivers lifting and tightening in gradual stages. Most patients see meaningful improvement without needing any additional treatments beyond their personalised plan.

How Long Results Last

Both HIFU and fat freezing with Radio Frequency support long-lasting results when paired with a healthy lifestyle and an ongoing balanced diet. Once the body's lymphatic system processes the targeted fat cells, they do not return — meaning long-term improvement is achievable when paired with stable weight and healthy habits.

You may experience mild swelling in the treated area after your session, but this is temporary and part of the body's natural healing process. Most patients return to normal activities the same day.

Supporting Your Results with a Healthy Lifestyle

While advanced technology can significantly reduce excess fat under the chin, maintaining your results is a partnership between treatment and self-care. A healthy diet, regular exercise, and consistent healthy lifestyle choices help prevent future double chin development or weight-related changes.

Our practitioner will guide you on simple ways to maintain your contoured appearance, support optimal healing, and keep your defined jawline looking its best in the long term.

Our double chin removal treatments are suitable for clients who want a smoother, more refined lower face without the downtime or risks of double chin surgery, chin liposuction, or other invasive procedures. These treatments are ideal if you are experiencing:

• A visible double chin caused by genetics, ageing, excess fat, or weight gain

• Mild to moderate skin laxity or loose skin under the chin or along the neck area

• Small, stubborn fat pockets that don't improve with a healthy lifestyle or regular exercise

• Changes to your lower facial structure that affect jawline definition

• A desire for natural, gradual enhancement without a surgical procedure

Our technology-led, non-surgical and non-invasive options are especially suited to clients who prefer a gentle approach to double chin reduction, want minimal downtime, and value subtle, natural-looking improvements.

During your free consultation, we will assess whether HIFU, fat freezing with Radio Frequency, or a combination of both will deliver the most effective outcome for your chin area and overall contoured appearance.

While most patients achieve excellent results, not everyone will be a candidate. Safety comes first, and if we feel another treatment pathway would better support your desired outcome, we will always guide you honestly.
