A double chin can be a source of constant frustration because it will often remain in place despite diet, exercise, or lifestyle change. However, recent months have seen more options emerge with the goal of non-invasively reducing submental fat under the chin! Kybella, an injectable treatment, and CoolMini, a specialized applicator from CoolSculpting that freezes fat cells away, have both been FDA approved and are in use by select dermatology offices throughout the country.

CoolMini uses the same cryolipolysis technology that made CoolSculpting a household name for stubborn fat reduction, channeled through a specialized applicator designed specifically for small, hard-to-treat areas, such as under the chin, armpits, and knees. It’s completely non-invasive, and in the right candidate can provide a 20 – 30% reduction in fat after one session. Multiple sessions can be done to achieve the patient’s desired goals!

One of the best things about CoolSculpting is the lack of downtime needed, as well as the relatively short treatment time.

A CoolMini treatment takes about an hour, and there should be no pain because the area is numbed from the cold. If you are suffering from small areas of stubborn fat, CoolMini may be the treatment you’ve been waiting for. Finally, there is a way to contour your chin that requires no needles or incisions, but produces noticeable results!
