Injectables — in clinic
Unwanted fullness beneath the chin can impact how your profile appears and how you perceive it. At SKIN Clinics, our fat-dissolving injections offer a refined, non-surgical approach to reducing submental fullness and achieving a more sculpted, confident contour. This treatment works by targeting adipose tissue beneath the skin, gently encouraging the process of lipolysis so the body can naturally break down and clear excess fat over time.

FAQ

Everything you need to know.

Deoxycholic acid is a molecule your body already uses to break down dietary fat, which is why it works so effectively for this treatment. When carefully injected beneath the chin, it helps dissolve unwanted adipose tissue by triggering a gentle process called lipolysis. Over the following weeks, your body naturally clears these disrupted fat cells, resulting in a gradual reduction of submental fullness. Most patients notice a meaningful improvement after a series of sessions, typically between two and four, with minimal downtime and a beautifully refined result that enhances their natural profile.

This treatment provides a refined approach to reducing unwanted fullness, while also supporting a smooth and comfortable experience.

  • A non-surgical option for softening submental fullness
  • A quick, precise injectable treatment with minimal disruption to your day
  • Fully tailored to align with your unique aesthetic goals
  • Once the fat cells are cleared, they do not return, so retreatment is typically unnecessary
