Wrinkles and Crepey Skin

What is double chin?

The chin is a big area of concern for many people. Whether it’s a little pudgy, loose or if you have a full-on fat chin, it can look worse at certain angles or show up in pictures. It may make you appear larger or older than you are from headshots. The chin/neck is a place where some people hold fat preferentially, just like some people hold fat in their belly, hips, or thighs. Since it’s such a localized area, if you treat it, it typically makes a huge difference in the way that you look and feel.

What causes double chin?

While some with double chins may have a weight problem everywhere, sometimes that is not the case. It tends to be more of a genetic/hereditary factor, i.e. it’s where you collect or hold fat. When your chin becomes loose or pudgy over time, that may just be the way that you age.

Where do you get double chin?

The little area right under the chin that may just be a small pocket, or may extend back and down the neck and to the sides, along the jawline. Again, you may also just not have a sharp jawline and want to improve that. Often, fat or loose skin can extend down into the neck area as well.
