The “double chin” is a common problem for many people. While some home exercises and diet changes may help, others seek quicker, more visible results. This is where treatments like Kybella come in—an excellent alternative to chin liposuction for removing unwanted fat from the chin and neck.

Exercise to Get Rid of Neck Fat

There are exercises that target the muscles in the chin and neck to help burn fat in the area. Here are a few:

• Tilt and Whistle: Tilt your head back and close your lips as if whistling. Hold for 10-20 seconds. Repeat 10 times.
• Neck Rotations: Put your chin to your chest, rotate to the right and hold for 5 seconds, then rotate to the left. Repeat 3 times.
• Jaw Push Forward: Tilt your head back and push your lower jaw forward to stretch under the chin. Repeat 10 times.
• Sky Kiss: Tilt your head back and try to “kiss the sky.” Hold for 5-20 seconds. Repeat 10-15 times.
• Squishy Ball Exercise: Place a ball under your chin and press down. Repeat 10-30 times.
• Stick Lip and Chin Tilt: Stick your bottom lip out, hold for 3 seconds, then tilt your chin down towards your chest. Repeat 10-20 times.
• Tongue Stretch: Open your mouth wide and push your tongue out for 10 seconds. Repeat 10 times.
• Chewing Gum: Regularly chewing gum works out the jaw muscles, making it a helpful exercise for toning the face.

Chin Fat Removal Treatments

Diet and exercise can help reduce a double chin, but sometimes that stubborn fat remains. In such cases, Kybella is a popular non-surgical solution. This injectable uses deoxycholic acid to destroy fat cells, allowing the body to absorb and clear them away. Results from Kybella can be permanent, depending on lifestyle habits.

Other treatments include chin lipo and HIFU for facial contouring.

When Do I See Kybella Results?

Kybella results typically appear within a few weeks of treatment. The number of vials used per treatment varies based on the area being targeted. One vial generally treats an area the size of two business cards, and most patients require between one and four vials per session. The number of sessions needed also depends on individual goals and the amount of fat present. Learn more about the treatment by visiting our Facial Contouring for Men page.
