Thread lifting for double chin is one of the most popular procedures among individuals who experience under-chin fat or undefined jawlines. It is a technique that lifts and tightens the skin under the chin using special absorbable threads that are safe for the body. These threads dissolve naturally over time and, while under the skin, stimulate collagen production, resulting in firmer, more elastic, and youthful-looking skin. This procedure is ideal for those who prefer non-surgical options.

A double chin, or submental fat, can occur due to several factors, including:

Some people have bone or skin structures that are more prone to fat accumulation under the chin.

When calorie intake exceeds what the body burns, excess fat can accumulate in various areas, including under the chin.

As we age, collagen and elastin in the skin decrease, causing the skin around the chin to sag and form a double chin.

Prolonged periods of looking down, such as using a phone or working on a computer, can weaken neck and chin muscles, contributing to the formation of a double chin.

You can observe noticeable lifting effects right after the procedure, with continued improvement over 1–2 months.

The procedure involves no surgery and no large scars, ideal for those avoiding surgical intervention and with limited downtime.

The dissolvable threads continuously stimulate collagen production under the skin, tightening and firming the area over time.

Patients can resume daily activities immediately after the procedure.

• Those experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity.
• People seeking to define their facial contour or jawline.

For those with significant fat accumulation, combining fat-dissolving injections with thread lifting improves both contour and skin firmness.

After removing fat from the chin area, thread lifting may be used to further tighten and firm the skin under the chin.

Ensure the provider is licensed and has genuine experience in thread lifting procedures.

Each case varies; the doctor may recommend an alternative procedure better suited to your concern.

There may be mild swelling, bruising, or tightness for 2–7 days, which should gradually subside.

Yes, it is suitable for men as well, with adjustments based on facial structure.
