Double chin treatments reduce fullness under the chin and sharpen the jawline without surgery, usually by combining fat reduction (such as fat-dissolving injections or RF devices) with skin tightening. At Egg Clinic in Sinsa, Gangnam, a doctor checks whether fat, loose skin or both cause your double chin and recommends a plan; results build gradually over several weeks.

What are double chin treatments?
A double chin (submental fullness) can be caused by a pocket of fat under the chin, skin that has lost elasticity, a weak chin profile, or a mix of these. Because the cause differs from person to person, there is no single treatment. Non-surgical double chin treatments target either the fat, the skin, or both.
For fat, the main options are fat-dissolving injections, which break down fat cells that the body then clears, and energy-based devices such as radiofrequency that heat and reduce fat. For loose skin, ultrasound or RF lifting and double chin thread lifts can tighten and define the jawline. In some cases, chin filler improves the profile so the under-chin area looks less full.
Who is a good candidate?
- A small to moderate pocket of fat under the chin
- A softening jawline or early jowls
- Fullness that remains despite a healthy weight
- Mild skin laxity under the chin
- People who do not want liposuction or surgery
Non-surgical options are less effective for a large amount of fat or very loose skin, where surgery may be more appropriate. Treatment should be postponed during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with active infection in the area, or if you have certain thyroid or neck conditions that need medical review first. The doctor will explain realistic expectations at consultation.

What are the results and recovery like?
Results depend on the method chosen. After fat-dissolving injections, swelling, tenderness and numbness under the chin are common for a few days, and the reduction becomes visible gradually over several weeks, often after two or more sessions. Energy-based tightening usually has little or no downtime, with collagen improving over two to three months. Once fat cells are reduced, results can be long-lasting, provided your weight stays stable. The doctor will review progress and adjust the plan between sessions.
How the treatment works
-
Consultation
The doctor examines your chin and neck to see whether fat, loose skin or chin shape is the main cause, then recommends a method and number of sessions.
-
Preparation
Numbing cream, ice or cooling is used depending on the treatment.
-
Treatment
Injections are placed in a marked grid under the chin, or an energy device is passed over the area.
-
Aftercare
Expect mild swelling or tenderness after injections. Avoid massage, saunas and alcohol for a couple of days and keep your weight steady.
Tips for international patients
- Most double chin methods need more than one session, so ask on WhatsApp how to plan them around your trip.
- Fat-dissolving injections can cause a few days of swelling, so schedule them early in your stay.
- Send side-profile photos before your visit so the doctor can suggest suitable options.
- Combining fat reduction with skin tightening often gives a more defined jawline.
Frequently asked questions
What is the most effective non-surgical double chin treatment?
It depends on the cause. Fat-dissolving injections suit a localised fat pocket, while RF or ultrasound lifting suits loose skin. Many people benefit from a combination, which the doctor recommends at consultation.
How many sessions do I need for a double chin?
Fat-dissolving injections often need two to four sessions several weeks apart, while energy-based tightening may need one or more sessions. The doctor sets a plan for you.
Is double chin treatment painful?
Injections cause stinging and a burning sensation for a short time, and energy devices feel warm. Numbing or cooling is used to keep you comfortable.
Are double chin results permanent?
Fat cells that are destroyed do not grow back, so results can be long-lasting if your weight stays stable. Skin ageing continues, so tightening may need maintenance.
How much does double chin treatment cost in Seoul?
The price depends on the method and number of sessions, so the doctor confirms it at consultation. See our published contouring prices.
