Double Chin Exercises

not so sure understand why the opinions of doctors on here is that double chin exercise is not possibel... wouldnt getting thinner and stronger neck muscles tighten and eventually reduce the appearance of the chin fat... So depressed if my double chin is here to stay unless i get surgery! no disrespect to the doctors here!

A: Devices for double chin exercises don't work

Beware of devices that are promoted for double chin correction with exercises alone; they simply do not work well enough if at all. Most double chins are do to anatomic problems related to excess fatty tissue, low hyoid bone position, and lax muscles. The surgical treatments vary from simple liposuction (with or without laser) to submentoplasty and neck lift.

Occasionally, chin augmentation will also be benefical along with one or more of these procedures. Downtime and recovery are related to the nature of the procedure that is required, but are relatively short. A board certified facial plastic surgeon/ plastic surgeon with experience should be consulted before wasting money on chin exercising devices.
