Double Chin + Muscle Tightening

A double chin that won't go away isn't caused by weight gain.

01. Thick fat under the skin

Its weight can make the area sag. As fat builds up, it pushes the muscle outward, so the area bulges and looks heavy.

02. Loose platysma

The neck muscle has lost its strength and sagged.

03. Separated muscle

A gap has opened between the muscles, letting fat push through.

04. Recessed chin

The jawbone is small, so the skin folds easily.

Sagging skin and loose muscle have to be addressed before you can see a sharp, youthful jawline.

Liposuction + double chin muscle tightening

This surgery effectively removes a double chin that has loosened and sagged with age. It is performed together with liposuction: once the fat is removed, the exposed muscles are tied together to effectively improve the double chin.

Who double chin muscle tightening is for

• Excess fat around the neck and an undefined jawline
• A small chin that makes the distance between the neck and chin short
• Severe sagging of the neck muscles
• Neck muscles that have stretched with age

How double chin muscle tightening is performed

01. Liposuction

The fat layer beneath the skin is suctioned out with a cannula

02. Removing fine fat

Fat globules sitting on top of the platysma are removed through a 1.5 cm incision under the chin

03. Removing deep fat

Large fat globules beneath the platysma are removed

04. Suturing

The 1.5 cm incision is closed in two layers, beneath the skin and at the skin surface

05. The result

The result is a smooth jawline and a sleek V-line.

Why does removing the fat globules on top of the platysma matter?

Fat globules attached to the muscle layer are hard to remove through a cannula. A second step removes this fat while reducing tissue damage, creating a sharper jawline.

Key points of double chin muscle tightening at DOY JUN Plastic Surgery

Tiny incision under the chin

A precise incision is made inside the crease under the chin, which is hard to see unless you tilt your head back, so the scar is barely noticeable.

Removing “deep fat”

Even the deep fat hidden beneath the muscle, which blurs the jawline, is removed for a sharp jawline.

Strong fixation

After the muscles are brought together, the fascia and ligaments are secured firmly once more for long-lasting results.

An ideal jawline

It's not just about removing fat. We design the angle where the chin meets the neck to fall within the ideal range of 90 to 105 degrees.
