HIFU for Double Chin Removal
HIFU for Double Chin Removal uses High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound to lift and tighten the submental area without surgery. HIFU targets skin laxity under the chin to reduce mild to moderate double chin and define the jawline angle.
How HIFU for Double Chin Removal Works
HIFU delivers focused ultrasound energy to specific layers under the chin to contract tissue and stimulate collagen.
HIFU Depth | Target Structure Under Chin | Effect on Double Chin |
|---|---|---|
3.0mm | Deep dermis | Tightens loose, crepey skin |
4.5mm | SMAS + Platysma muscle | Lifts muscle layer, defines jawline angle |
Energy at 60-70°C creates thermal coagulation points. This tightens skin and lifts the area over 3-6 months.
