A double chin can make you feel unhappy about the shape or size of your chin, and can detract from your other facial features. One of the most effective treatments for double chin is SculpSure, a non-invasive treatment that is used to treat unwanted body fat. It has recently been cleared by the FDA for use in treating submental fat, which is difficult to lose through diet or exercise alone. Dr. Judith Hellman is a board-certified dermatologist who specializes in advanced body sculpting treatments such as SculpSure. She has been named a SuperDoctor® by the New York Times and is a top patient-rated dermatologist in NYC.

Can lasers be used to treat a double chin and tighten the neck?

SculpSure is a laser treatment that is a great alternative to necklifts, liposuction, and other non-invasive double chin treatments. It is among the most advanced technologies on the market. The treatment, which was originally used on other areas of the body like the thighs and abdomen, received FDA-clearance for usage on the chin in 2015. It has since become one of the most successful and sought-after treatments that we offer.

How does it work?

SculpSure works through laser technology that targets and eliminates fat cells at subdermal level. It is entirely non-surgical and non-invasive, meaning there is no surgery, incisions, scarring, or need for anesthesia. In addition to eliminating unwanted fat, this treatment can also help tighten loose neck skin.

Unlike other methods that freeze fat, this treatment uses a heightened temperature to target the fat under the skin while keeping the surface of the chin cool so there is no chance of any burns or damage to the skin. The body then naturally disposes of the dead fat cells over the next six weeks. After just one treatment, your chin will start to look more contoured as the extra fat is eliminated.

Why is this treatment best?

While there are other ways of treating submental fat, this laser treatment offers some unique benefits. Below is a chart that highlights some of the main reasons why our patients prefer SculpSure for eliminating a double chin.
