What is double chin?
A double chin, also known as submental fat, is a common condition that affects both men and women. It appears as excess fullness beneath the chin and can be caused by genetics, weight fluctuations, aging, and poor posture. As we age, the skin naturally loses elasticity, making it more prone to sagging. In many cases, fat under the chin is resistant to exercise and diet, making it difficult to eliminate without targeted treatment. At SKIN111 Clinic, we specialize in safe, effective, surgical and non-surgical double chin removal and double chin reduction treatments tailored to your unique facial structure and aesthetic goals. Our DHA-licensed specialists, with decades of combined experience, use advanced techniques such as fat-dissolving injections and skin-tightening procedures to contour the jawline and restore a slimmer, more sculpted profile enhancing both your appearance and confidence.
What Causes a Double Chin?
A double chin develops when a layer of fat forms beneath the chin, often resulting in a softer, less defined jawline. While excess weight can contribute, it's not the only cause. Several reasons can lead to the appearance of a double chin, including:
- Genetics: Some individuals are genetically predisposed to store fat in the neck and chin area, even if they are not overweight.
- Aging: As we age, the skin loses elasticity and collagen, which can lead to sagging and the formation of a double chin.
- Weight gain: Increased body fat can accumulate under the chin, contributing to fullness in the lower face.
- Poor posture: Weakening of the neck and chin muscles due to poor posture can reduce muscle tone, encouraging fat buildup and skin laxity.
- Lifestyle factors: Lack of physical activity, poor diet, and lack of hydration may also play a role in fat accumulation.
Understanding the root cause of your double chin is crucial while choosing the most effective double chin treatment. At SKIN111 Clinic, our specialists offer personalized consultations to recommend the best double chin removal in Dubai tailored to your individual needs, ensuring safe and effective results.

Procedures for double chin treatment @ SKIN111
Several advanced procedures are available for double chin reduction at SKIN111 Clinic, each designed to target different aspects of submental fat and skin tightening for optimal results.
- Morpheus8: Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive procedure that combines radiofrequency (RF) microneedling to tighten the skin beneath the chin while destroying fat cells. This treatment stimulates collagen production, improving skin texture and creating a more contoured jawline.
- Lipolysis injection: Lipolysis injections are a popular double chin fat dissolving injection treatment. This non-surgical treatment involves injecting a solution directly into the subcutaneous fat, which dissolves fat cells that are naturally removed by the body, reducing the appearance of a double chin.
- Chin and jawline fillers: Dermal fillers are minimally invasive procedures that enhance chin projection and define the jawline. By adding volume and contour, they help balance facial proportions and reduce the appearance of a double chin, resulting in a sharper and more sculpted profile.
- HIFU chin/neck: High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a double chin removal non surgical procedure that uses focused ultrasound energy to heat and destroy fat cells under the chin. It also stimulates collagen production, leading to skin tightening and a sharper jawline.
- TruSculpt iD: TruSculpt iD is a non-invasive body sculpting treatment that utilizes radiofrequency energy to target and destroy fat cells beneath the chin. This customizable therapy can be combined with other double chin therapy treatments for more comprehensive results.
- Secret Duo RF: Secret Duo RF is a combination of microneedling and radiofrequency energy in a minimally invasive treatment that simultaneously reduces fat and tightens the skin. This dual-action treatment effectively addresses both volume and laxity to improve the double chin area.
- Venus legacy: Venus Legacy is a non-invasive treatment that uses multipolar radiofrequency and pulsed electromagnetic fields to promote collagen production, tighten skin, and reduce fat in the chin area. It's an excellent option for those seeking a comfortable, non-surgical approach to double chin reduction.
- Surgical double chin removal (Double Chin Liposuction / Chin Lipo): For more significant fat removal, double chin liposuction or chin lipo is a surgical procedure that physically removes excess fat from under the chin. This procedure provides immediate and dramatic contouring results and is ideal for patients seeking a more permanent solution.
