Is your double chin making you self-conscious or ruining your selfies? There are a few things you can do to improve your appearance and eliminate your double chin.
Here’s how to get started.
Although a double chin isn’t necessarily the result of being overweight, extra pounds can make a double chin worse or more noticeable. Reaching a healthy weight is simple, but it takes work. You already know the basics—exercise 4-5 days a week, eat a healthy balanced diet, manage your stress levels, and get enough sleep.
If you’re always looking down at a screen or slouching in your chair, a double chin will be more prominent. Good posture will improve your overall appearance and help you feel more energetic. Keep your chin up and your back straight and take breaks from sitting or standing in the same position.
Improving the muscles in your neck and face can make a double chin less noticeable. Some recommended exercises include:
While some of the above tips may help, the easiest and most effective way to eliminate a double chin is through Kybella injections. This cosmetic procedure is safe and has been approved by the FDA. The active ingredient in Kybella deoxycholic acid. Deoxycholic acid helps your body break down and absorb fat.
Treatments are simple and non invasive. Kybella is injected underneath your chin using a tiny needle. The process is similar to other cosmetic procedures that use injectables. After Kybella has been injected, the deoxycholic acid works to destroy fat cells in the target area. Patients usually come in for 2-4 sessions and results become noticeable over time.
