Nobody with a double chin looks attractive. Double chin is considered a sign of unhealthy lifestyle. It is accumulation of excess fat below the chin and around the neck, associated with sagging skin, appearing as an extra fold of flesh. It is more common in obese and elderly people, although some people with short neck and excess laxity of skin may also have double chin
A combination of different treatment modalities is usually required to achieve the best results for double chin correction. A lipolytic solution is injected to dissolve the extra fat. In addition, if there is associated laxity and sagging of skin, then surgical thread lift is done. Further, muscle relaxant may be injected in to the neck muscle (platysma) along the jaw line to define it well.
Lipolytic injections, also known as fat dissolving injections, is a non-surgical procedure to reduce or eliminate unwanted localised fat accumulation.
These substances are produced by body itself.
When injected into the localised collection of fat pockets, these substances
cause the fat cells walls to dissolve; the fat is then eliminated by the body’s
metabolic process. By reducing the number of fat cells in the area, the amount
of fat stored in the area is reduced.
PPC is being therapeutically used since 15 years and is considered extremely
safe.
Anyone with a double chin with good elasticity of skin is suitable candidate for
injection lipolysis.
It is also important that the client is positively motivated to maintain a healthy
lifestyle to maintain the results.
If you are any of the following, you must not be treated with Lipolysis:
Diabetics
Patients with cardiovascular diseases
Patients with certain allergies
Patients who currently have or used to have malignant disorders
Patients with blood disorders
Patients with kidney diseases
Injection lipolysis is an in-office procedure done under complete aseptic
conditions.
Steps-
Lipolytic injection is associated with slight stinging and burning sensation, although it is very well tolerated by majority of the clients. For more sensitive people, a topical numbing cream can be applied for 30 minutes before the procedure.
A lipolysis treatment session takes between 45-60 minutes
There might be slight soreness and swelling for 2-3 days post procedure. You may do icing to reduce the discomfort. Additionally, an analgesic may be advised by the doctor for usage on SOS basis. However, no additional rest is required post procedure..
Depending on the amount of fat accumulation, one may require 4-6 sessions for best results.
Injection lipolysis treatment is done every 2-3 weeks till desired results are achieved.
One can start to appreciate slight improvement after 2 sessions, however, significant reduction in double chin can be noticed after 4-5 sessions.
Injection lipolysis is not associated with any long term adverse effects. It is safe and effective treatment option to get rid of the stubborn double chin fat.
As per the latest research, fat cells once dissolved do not return. This means that the results of injection lipolysis are relatively permanent. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and preventing weight gain is of utmost importance.
