Why do we develop a double chin as we age? Is there a solution? The answer is yes.
Dr. Rajani explains the reasons we develop a double chin are multi-factorial–but mainly as we age, we lose collagen. Collagen is our most abundant protein and provides structure to our epidermal tissues and keeps us looking young and vibrant. Collagen reduction over time creates pre jowl sulcus, or “jowling”. Fat settles into the area and our whole face begins to drop, and as gravity dictates, fat begins to accumulate underneath the jaw line, creating the double chin.
Up until now, liposuction was the most effective way to get rid of submental fat. But now, Dr. Rajani has a non-invasive solution to get rid of the double chin, tighten the skin and restore a youthful jaw line. The solution is Kybella– a new FDA-approved injection placed underneath the chin that permanently reduces fat and removes the fat cells. Kybella is the only injection of its kind and is appropriate for both men and women. No surgery, no scalpel, and the best thing is there is no downtime.
