What are the alternatives to liposuction for a double chin? (photo)

January 23, 2014
Asked By:lbf in East Texas, PA

I am only 100 pounds and in my 20s and previously had a very strong jawline, but had my jaw shaved about 6 months ago. Although I am happy with my results, it has left me with a small (very small) double chin and it drives me crazy. I don't think the surgery left me with a weak chin because they moved my chin forward. I'm also not interested in a chin implant. Are there any alternatives? I have seen an injection used to melt fat after lipsuction causes lumps. Is there something of that sort?
