Unwanted Fat

Unwanted Fat in Palm Desert, CA | Expert Injections in Palm Springs, Rancho Mirage, Indian Wells, & La Quinta

Beauty is all about symmetry. However, symmetry in nature is often difficult to find. When it comes to changes in appearance as a result of age, achieving and maintaining a symmetrical appearance can be even more difficult. Skin laxity in particular can cause skin to sag unattractively, causing many men and women to feel insecure whenever they look into the mirror. The development of a “double chin” can be especially detrimental to self-esteem.

Desert Med Aesthetics offers some of the latest non-surgical solutions to help patients restore symmetry to their appearance. With Kybella® double chin removal treatment, our Indian Wells cosmetic specialist is able to eliminate sagging skin and restore a slim neck silhouette.

Double Chins (Submental Fullness)

Commonly known as a “double chin,” submental fullness is a cosmetic concern that frequently affects both men and women. While the condition may not be medically concerning, the development of a double chin can have a lasting impact on your overall appearance. According to a survey conducted by the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery, around 67% of people admitted to being bothered by having a double chin.

By adding excess fullness below the chin, submental fat can detract from balanced facial proportions, leaving individuals with features that make them look older or heavier than they are. Another dilemma is that, in most cases, neither diet nor exercise can effectively reduce submental fat. Even with a rigorous workout regimen, individuals can lose weight yet still retain submental fullness. However, there are certain factors, such as genetics, aging, and weight gain, that can contribute to the development of a double chin.

Double Chin Removal Treatment

Until recently, advanced cosmetic surgery such as a neck lift and liposuction were the only cosmetic options available for a double chin. While these are effective solutions, the risks inherent in surgery, as well as the long recovery period, were barriers that kept many male and female patients from pursuing double chin removal.

For patients who are looking for a non-surgical way of addressing submental fullness, CoolSculpting is an effective alternative that requires no downtime. CoolSculpting offers full jawline definition, whereas Kybella® only improves the appearance of submental fullness.
