Chin treatment options may include:
Non-surgical chin treatment – available following consultation and assessment of suitability.
Cryolipolysis (CoolSculpting) – a non-surgical method using controlled cooling to act on fat cells.
Liposuction – a surgical option that may be used in some cases.
The most appropriate option depends on a range of factors, including the patient’s goals, their medical history, and clinical recommendations.
Treatment suitability
Chin treatment may be considered for patients aged 18 years and older who have fat beneath the chin that has not changed with lifestyle measures such as diet and exercise. This treatment does not address skin laxity, so if skin firmness is the main concern, other approaches may be more appropriate.
Suitability will be determined during consultation. Patients with an infection in the treatment area or certain health conditions may not be suitable. A full medical history, including any medications or supplements, will be reviewed to help assess safety.
