Redefine Your Profile

At FACET Dermatology, we understand how frustrating it can feel when a double chin—or submental fullness—detracts from an otherwise balanced profile. Genetics, aging, and even posture can all contribute to fullness under the chin that doesn’t respond to diet or exercise.

Led by Dr. Geeta Yadav, one of the best cosmetic dermatologists in Toronto, our team offers non-surgical double chin treatments that precisely target unwanted fat while tightening and redefining the jawline.

Your Customized Treatment Plan May Include:

Every treatment plan begins with a comprehensive consultation to assess your facial anatomy and goals. Depending on your needs, your dermatologist may recommend one or a combination of the following treatments. Together, these treatments can dramatically refine the lower face, without surgery or downtime.

Belkyra (Deoxycholic Acid Injections)

Belkyra is an injectable treatment that permanently dissolves fat cells beneath the chin. Over a series of sessions, it creates a more sculpted and defined jawline with long-lasting results.

Ultherapy PRIME

Using focused ultrasound energy, Ultherapy PRIME tightens and lifts the skin by stimulating collagen deep within the tissue. It’s an excellent complement to Belkyra for patients experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes a double chin?

A double chin can develop due to genetics, aging, or weight changes. It often results from a combination of fat accumulation and skin laxity beneath the jawline.

How does Belkyra work?

Belkyra uses deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule that breaks down fat cells. Once destroyed, these cells cannot store or accumulate fat again, resulting in a more defined jawline.

How many Belkyra treatments will I need?

Most patients require 2–4 sessions spaced about one month apart. Your dermatologist will personalize your plan based on your anatomy and desired results.

How does Ultherapy PRIME treat a double chin?

Ultherapy PRIME uses focused ultrasound to stimulate collagen and tighten skin beneath the chin, improving firmness and contour with no downtime.

Is there downtime after treatment?

With Belkyra, mild swelling and tenderness are common for several days after treatment. Ultherapy PRIME typically involves no downtime, though some patients experience temporary redness or tingling.
