Injectable Double Chin Reduction

Klinika Esthé offers injectable lipolysis for the double chin: a fat-dissolving solution is injected into the submental fat pad, permanently breaking down fat cells over the following weeks without surgery. Each session takes about 20–30 minutes; swelling for several days is expected and is part of the mechanism. For larger fat pads or where skin tightening is also needed, the clinic performs ultrasonic chin liposuction (from 34,000 Kč) and liposuction combined with Renuvion (50,000 Kč), so patients are guided to the most effective option for their anatomy.

A persistent fullness under the chin is one of the most common aesthetic complaints — and one of the least responsive to diet, because the submental fat pad is partly genetically determined. Injectable lipolysis (fat-dissolving injections, most commonly deoxycholic-acid-based) destroys fat cell membranes in the treated pad; the released fat is then cleared gradually by the body's metabolic pathways. Destroyed fat cells do not return, making the result long-lasting at stable body weight. **The session at Esthé:** the physician marks the submental zone, may apply topical or local anaesthetic, and places a grid of small injections into the fat pad — about 20–30 minutes in total. Swelling, tenderness and a sensation of firmness over the following days are expected and indicate the inflammatory clearance process at work; visible swelling typically settles within a week, with the contour change developing over 4–8 weeks. **Course:** smaller fat pads may respond to a single session; most patients need 2–3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. From 14,500 Kč per session. **When injections are not the right tool:** a large fat pad, or one combined with loose skin, responds better to surgical options — both available in-house: ultrasonic submental liposuction (from 34,000 Kč) removes the fat in one definitive session, and the liposuction + Renuvion combination (50,000 Kč) adds plasma-energy skin contraction for patients whose skin needs tightening as well. The consultation determines candidacy honestly across all three options.
