The visual appearance of a double chin can dramatically affect confidence and it often can contribute to making those who have the condition looking older or appearing heavier than they actually are. Luckily here at The Private Clinic we have a variety of treatments available to help with this common issue and make you finally feel proud of your facial profile.

The excess volume in this area can be made up of a number of factors including;

• Loose Skin
• Excess neck fat
• Small/weak chin
• Drooping salivary gland
• Sagging platysma Muscle

And it is usually a combination of these that result in a visible double chin not just excess fat like many assume is the cause.

Double chin or submental fullness can affect both men and women. Ageing is a big cause, as we age we lose elasticity in the skin making it more likely to sag. Some people are more prone to developing submental fullness which is just down to their genetics. Weight gain can also have an effect and fat in this area is particularly difficult to remove despite exercise and dieting.
