Redefining the Jawline

Submental fullness—commonly known as a double chin—is one of the most persistent aesthetic concerns for both men and women. Unlike generalised weight gain, localised fat beneath the chin is frequently resistant to diet and targeted exercise.

At Coltishall Clinic, submental contouring is approached not through mass-market, one-size-fits-all solutions, but through doctor-led diagnostic precision. Effective treatment begins with identifying the underlying cause of fullness: localised stubborn fat, skin laxity, or a combination of both.

Targeted Fat Mobilisation & Sculpting

For patients presenting with resistant fat deposits beneath the chin, minimal-intervention surgical techniques offer predictable, long-lasting results.

·       Laser Lipolysis & Microcannula Liposculpture: Utilising tumescent local anesthesia, submental fat can be safely melted using ultra-fine fiber lasers before precise removal through microcannulas (tubes less than 2mm in diameter). This approach avoids general anesthesia, minimises tissue trauma, and encourages deep-layer skin tightening simultaneously.

Addressing Skin Laxity and Muscle Tone

When fullness is exacerbated by loose skin or neck muscle separation, fat reduction alone is insufficient.

·       Laser-Assisted Neck Lifting & Mini Facelifts: Performed safely under local anesthesia, laser-assisted lifting restores foundational structural support along the jawline and upper neck, tightening loose tissue with minimal downtime.

The Clinical Difference

A subtle, natural outcome depends entirely on practitioner skill and individualised treatment planning. By combining multi-modal laser platforms with gentle surgical refinement, patients receive a bespoke plan that restores proportion and profile clarity while avoiding an over-treated appearance.
