- Sagging under the chin creates a double chin
- Cheek sagging has deepened your nasolabial folds
How Double Chin & Nasolabial Thread Lift works
Threads placed along the jaw and under the chin tighten the tissue that forms a double chin. In the midface, lifting the cheek softens the fold it creates.
Where fat is the main cause, devices or liposuction are combined because threads do not remove fat.
