Why Do We Get a Double Chin?

A “double chin” (submental fullness) develops from a mix of factors. Extra fat can collect under the chin with weight gain, but genetics strongly influence where we store fat and how our chin–neck angle looks—so even people at a healthy weight may notice fullness. As we age, collagen and elastin decline and the platysma muscle loses tone, allowing skin to loosen and small fat pockets to show more. Bone structure also matters: a recessed chin or weaker jawline provides less support, making tissue appear fuller. Finally, modern posture—long hours looking down at phones or laptops—can accentuate creasing and laxity, highlighting submental volume without causing it. The result is common, multifactorial, and highly individual.

Frequently Asked Questions

Double chin treatment at Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre targets submental fullness—the pocket of fat and lax skin beneath the jawline—using personalized, evidence‑based options. After assessing fat volume, skin elasticity, and chin‑neck angle, our clinicians may recommend Belkyra® injections to dissolve fat, CoolSculpting® Mini to freeze and eliminate fat cells, laser TightSculpting® to heat, tighten, and contour, or a combination approach. Each modality addresses different contributors: stubborn fat, mild to moderate skin laxity, or both. Sessions are typically quick, office‑based, and designed for minimal downtime. Over several weeks your body clears treated fat cells and collagen remodeling firms the area, revealing a slimmer, more defined profile. We emphasize safety, natural‑looking results, and clear education throughout care. Consultation tailors the plan precisely.
Preparation helps you get smoother, safer results. For two weeks before treatment, avoid new supplements that thin blood, such as high‑dose fish oil, ginkgo, and garlic; if you take prescribed anticoagulants, discuss adjustments with your primary provider first. Limit alcohol for 48 hours and stop smoking to support healing. Three to five days prior, pause exfoliants, retinoids, and harsh acids under the chin and neck. If you’re prone to bruising, consider arnica after your clinician approves. Hydrate well, eat a light meal, and arrive with clean, product‑free skin. Wear a loose, open‑neck top. Arrange a ride if you expect swelling or numbing medication. Bring medical history, medication list, and previous treatment records to optimize your customized plan. Confirm allergies and expectations.
We’ll review your goals, capture medical photos, and map the treatment area. A topical numbing cream or local anesthetic may be used for comfort. For Belkyra®, we mark a grid and place a series of small injections; you’ll feel brief stinging and warmth, followed by swelling. For CoolSculpting® Mini, a gel pad and applicator draw tissue into gentle suction; intense cold fades to numbness over 35–45 minutes, then a short massage. For laser TightSculpting®, protective eyewear is worn as controlled heating passes firm skin; you’ll feel deep warmth without incisions. Expect to be in‑clinic 30–60 minutes, receive aftercare instructions, and resume light activities the same day unless advised otherwise.
Right after treatment, expect temporary swelling, numbness, and tenderness—most noticeable with Belkyra and typically peaking within 48–72 hours. Apply a cool compress intermittently for the first day, keeping skin dry and clean. Sleep with your head elevated the first two nights to reduce swelling. Avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, and heavy alcohol for 24–48 hours. Skip makeup, retinoids, and exfoliants on the treated area for two to three days, or as directed. For CoolSculpting, gentle massage may be recommended; for Belkyra, avoid massaging unless your clinician instructs otherwise. Use acetaminophen if needed; avoid NSAIDs unless approved. Watch for uncommon signs like difficulty swallowing, severe asymmetry, or patchy skin color changes, and contact our clinic promptly for guidance. Follow personalized instructions sent home.
Fat cells reduced by Belkyra® or CoolSculpting® are gone for good, but remaining cells can still enlarge with weight gain. Maintain a stable weight, prioritize sleep, and stay hydrated to support a refined jawline. Daily SPF 30–50 and a gentle skincare routine help preserve skin quality; consider retinoids and peptides once healing allows. For skin laxity, periodic tightening treatments (e.g., laser/energy‑based) every 6–12 months can maintain firmness. Results evolve over weeks to months; many clients book a review at 8–12 weeks to assess progress and plan any touch‑ups. If lifestyle or aging changes your profile later, we can adapt with additional fat‑reduction or tightening sessions to keep your neckline looking defined and balanced.
Great candidates have stubborn submental fat, good general health, and realistic goals. Mild to moderate laxity responds well to non‑surgical options; significant loose skin or prominent platysmal bands may need surgical referral. We avoid treatment if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, have an active infection, uncontrolled medical conditions, or severe dysphagia. Belkyra® may be unsuitable with certain bleeding disorders or recent neck surgery; CoolSculpting® isn’t appropriate for cryoglobulinemia, cold agglutinin disease, or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. Rare risks include nerve irritation, prolonged numbness, or paradoxical adipose hyperplasia with cryolipolysis. We mitigate risks through careful assessment, precise technique, and follow‑up. A personalized consultation in our Edmonton clinic ensures the safest, most effective plan for you.
