Ultra-sound is used to reduce a double chin in a painless procedure that can remove pounds of fat from your neck. Low intensity ultra sound waves are directed by a trained physician into fat cells in your double chin. The ultra sound used is the same as that used on pregnant women to look into their wombs. The intensity of the ultra sounds is increased when used as a fat heater. What happens is that the fat in your double chin cells begins to heat. The heated fat causes the cell wall holding the fat to break down thus releasing the accumulated fat which is then removed by the physician. Depending on how much fat you want removed, these treatments can be repeated over the space of several weeks, eventually removing literally pounds of stored fat which will effectively reduce your double chin.
Another procedure that is also non-surgical is also done by a trained medical professional. A drug developed to aid in reducing cholesterol and thereby reducing the risk of cardiovascular problems, Lipodissolve was tested by Europeans in an effort to control fat deposits especially in reducing chin fat deposits. The method used is to inject selected spots on your double chin and inject them with the drug. For the next two week after the injection, the fat cells in your double chin absorb the drug and the medication causes the fat cells to lose fluid. The dried out fat cells begin to waste away and are carried out of the body by the digestive system.
Both of these methods are performed by trained medical professionals and are alternatives to neck lift cosmetic surgery which can only be done by a plastic surgeon.
