Chin augmentation

Double chin or what is popularly called Chin augmentation is a relatively common problem among people. They give the appearance of aging no matter how old a person is (even if they are in their twenties or thirties). With it, it becomes difficult to determine the end of chin and the beginning of neck because of their extension and the absence of clear boundaries between them. Double chin has several solutions with Dr. Basil Hassouneh, a specialist in facial plastic surgery in Dubai and Canada.

Causes of a chin augmentation

It has several causes, including hereditary, which is present from young ages. And sometimes severe weight gain plays a role. Also, aging leads to sagging skin and muscles and causes the appearance of a chin augmentation. All of these reasons lead to swelling in the area that is located under the chin and above the neck, which suggests that there is a second chin located under the real chin! And instead of this area being straight and tight separating the neck and the chin, it becomes convex and flabby and has an unattractive appearance.

Ways to get rid of it

There are many techniques and methods that aim to get rid of the chin augmentation, there are special injections that contain enzymes and lipolytic substances that can be injected into the neck area where they dissolve the excess fat in this area. Also, special laser sessions can be performed to remove them. Surgery is the most effective method, where the excess fat is suctioned using special tools after making small incisions in the chin area and behind the ears.

FAQ

Does exercise help remove double chin?

There are many exercises that are rumored to be able to get rid of a double chin, as well as chewing gum, but its usefulness remains in doubt, and even if it is useful, its usefulness remains very little and not enough, so more serious procedures must be taken.

Can the procedure be shared with other processes?

Yes, this is possible. In the event that the neck skin is saggy, the procedure can be combined with a neck lift by removing the excess skin and tightening the muscles in the area. It can also be combined with the facelift and eyelid surgery. General anesthesia is usually used if these procedures are shared with each other.

Are there any recommendations after the procedure?

Vigorous exercise should not be done for one to two months after surgery. Protecting the surgical area from contamination and using special ointments prescribed by the doctor is very important. Your doctor may ask you to wear a special tension bandage in the neck area after surgery. Quitting smoking and eating a healthy diet will help maintain long-term results.
