Excessive weight on the face which creates the appearance of a double chin can make adults appear to be older and more overweight or out-of-shape than they really are. Today, patients who wish to get rid of their double chin, finally have a non-surgical procedure option called Belkyra. This revolutionary new treatment is a prescription medication which is injected into the submental, (beneath the chin) area where it destroys the fat cells.
A double chin is so upsetting to patients because it can create the appearance of being overweight or unhealthy, even though this is often not the case. Making matters worse, patients who wish to get rid of their double chin often complain that once it has developed, it does not seem to be reduced in size with exercise and a heathy diet.
