What is Under Chin Fat Reduction?

This is an FDA- and Health Canada-approved injectable treatment designed to destroy fat cells under the chin, helping reduce double chin fat and improve facial contour without surgery.

How does the treatment work?

The treatment involves injecting a synthetic version of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body, which breaks down and absorbs dietary fat. The destroyed fat cells are then removed by the body’s natural processes, leading to a permanent reduction in fat.

How long does the treatment take?

Each session lasts approximately 30 to 40 minutes, with minimal downtime required.

How many treatments are needed?

Most patients require 2 to 6 treatments, spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart, to achieve optimal results.

Is the treatment permanent?

Yes, once the fat cells are destroyed, they cannot store or accumulate fat again, providing permanent results.

What should I expect during the procedure?

During the treatment, 20–50 small injections are administered into the fat layer under the chin. Patients may experience mild discomfort, and an anesthetic cream can be applied if necessary.

Are there side effects?

Common side effects include swelling, redness, bruising, numbness, or areas of hardness in the treated area. These typically resolve within 3–7 days.

When will I see results?

Results vary, but patients often notice improvements in the weeks following each session. Full results typically appear after completing the recommended series of treatments.

Can this treatment work if diet and exercise haven’t?

Yes, this treatment specifically targets fat under the chin and can provide noticeable improvements where diet and exercise alone may not succeed.

What other areas can this treatment address?

In addition to the under-chin area, this treatment can target fat in the jowls, cheeks, knees, and arms.

What is the cost of treatment?

The cost is $900 per vial, with most patients requiring 4–6 vials per session. Financing options are available through Affirm, with monthly payments starting at $500.

Do you offer financing options?

Yes, financing is available via Affirm, allowing you to split the cost into 3, 6, or 12 monthly payments. Interest rates range from 0% to 31.99% APR, depending on eligibility.

How should I prepare for the treatment?

Before treatment, avoid blood-thinning medications like aspirin or ibuprofen for 2–3 days, and avoid excessive sun exposure. During your consultation, photos will be taken to track progress.

What should I do after the treatment?

Post-treatment care includes avoiding excessive exercise, alcohol, and heat to reduce swelling and bruising. Drink plenty of water to aid the healing process.

Treatment Overview

Under Chin Fat Reduction

This is an injectable treatment that destroys fat cells under the chin and is Health Canada approved. This procedure is for you if you have fat under your chin especially double chin that you want reduced. It can be done successfully without surgery.

The main active ingredient is a synthetic deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body that assists in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fat. During the twenty-minute treatment multiple small injections will be injected into the chin fat. These injections destroy the fat cells and results include less fullness under the chin. Patients can have up to six sessions to reach their desired level of success. Once the fat cells are destroyed, they can no longer accumulate or store more fat.

How It works

FDA-Approved Injectable Treatment to Destroy Under Chin Fat Cells

This treatment is injected into the fat under your chin by a series of injections. The body’s own healing systems will clear the debris away. It induces an inflammatory reaction so each patient responds differently. However, some patients may need 2 treatments and some 4 to 6 to obtain the desired results. Treatments last 30 to 40 minutes and are best spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart.

This treatment doesn’t deprive you of your daily activities but you will experience swelling after treatment, so you may not wish to go straight back to work. Your double chin will get approximately twice as big for at least a couple of days, and remain swollen for up to 14 days. This swelling is actually crucial to your result. It is a sign of successful treatment and helps the healing process in the area.

What to expect

Planning Your Treatment

As with all treatments at our clinic, we require a preliminary consultation with a member of our highly qualified staff.

During your consultation, we will review your concerns, treatment expectations, price estimates, and a brief overview of your relevant medical history. We use this information to ensure we construct a suitable treatment plan which has you leaving our clinic satisfied and with confidence.

Before the Treatment

After you have been fully consulted and have signed your treatment consent forms, you will be asked to take a series of photos. These photos will be essential to help gauge the progression of your results as every client is different. An anesthetic cream may be applied but most patients find the treatment tolerable without it. To decrease the risk of bruising, avoid taking aspirin, Motrin, Ibuprofen, Advil and blood thinning medication 2-3 days before your treatment.

During the Treatment

The treatment is administered across sessions to help you lose your double chin.The treatment requires multiple injections, (20-50) into the fat layers under the chin and is a quick procedure (approximately 30 – 40 minutes) with minimal discomfort. Once injected, the product will begin breaking down the fat in the affected area. It is able to do this because it’s composed of a synthetic version of the natural compounds in your body that break down fat.
