How Double Chin Lifting works
A double chin can come from fat, loose skin or a retruded chin. Treatment depends on which applies.
Small fat deposits respond to devices; larger ones are treated with fine liposuction through a tiny incision under the chin. A short chin may be improved with chin augmentation.
