Submental Contour Correction

“ A Defined Jawline, the Start of Confidence ”

A sharp, natural line flowing seamlessly from the jaw to the neck
A double chin refers to a condition where the jawline appears folded in two layers due to excessive fat accumulation beneath the chin or laxity of the neck muscles. Going beyond simple fat removal, this procedure also strengthens the submental muscles and corrects the line, completing a slim and defined line flowing naturally from the jaw to the neck. ✓ Removal of excess double chin fat
✓ Elasticity restored through platysma tightening and lifting
✓ Sharpening of the dull cervicomental angle
✓ Improvement and restoration of a dull facial impression
A sharp and smooth jawline creates a younger, more refined appearance and serves as the key point in restoring facial balance and harmony.

Ideal Candidates for Submental Contour Correction

We recommend Submental Contour Correction for the following individuals.

  • Those with a double chin due to genetic factors or aging
  • Those with reduced elasticity in the submental skin and platysma
  • Those for whom Neck Lift alone is insufficient to improve the double chin (Those
    whose double chin remains even when the neck skin is pulled posterosuperiorly with both hands)
  • Those whose skin has become lax following double chin liposuction

Treatment Benefits

1
More Defined Facial Line
Submental Contour Correction defines the jawline and neckline, creating a three-dimensional and refined side profile.
2
A Smaller-Looking Face
By improving lower jaw fat and sagging, the face appears smaller and more balanced.
3
Beautiful Neckline
The once blurred boundary between jaw and neck — which made the neck look short and dull — is improved into a long, smooth line.
4
Semi-Permanent Longevity
With precise and meticulous correction, stable results are provided where elasticity and contour are maintained for a long time.

Complementary Procedures

Procedures That Complement Submental Contour Correction
Double Chin and Submental Liposuction
By simultaneously suctioning unnecessary subcutaneous fat alongside Neck Lift, the jawline and neckline are completed with a sharper and more defined look.
✓ Method

Subcutaneous fat of the double chin is suctioned via cannula through a small incision beneath the chin

Subcutaneous fat along the submental line is suctioned via cannula through the neck lift incision site

✓ Advantages
Not only does it sharpen the submental line, but by reducing the weight of sagging subcutaneous fat that must be lifted during Neck Lift, the overall result is further enhanced.
Submandibular Gland Removal
By removing a portion of the enlarged submandibular gland, the neckline is smoothed and naturally improved.
✓ Method
The submandibular gland is dissected and partially removed, focusing on the superficial layer
✓ Advantages
Makes the submental line sharper in cases where enlarged submandibular glands cannot be improved by Neck Lift and liposuction alone.
