What treatment will give me a more prominent collarbone look? (Photos)

Question

I was looking into any treatments that can give me a more prominent collarbone look. Would kybella or cool sculpting be ok to do in this area?

Anil R. Shah, MD · Answer

There isn't a lot of fat surrounding the collarbone, so you won't be able to achieve definition using Kybella and/or CoolSculpt in those areas. Your collarbone will gain definition with aging. For a temporary treatment, you can utilize filler injectables over the collarbone for heightened definition. I would recommend a durable and structural product such as Radiesse or Juvederm Voluma. I strongly suggest seeking a physician injector who has proven experience with Face and Neck injectables. Best, Dr. Anil Shah

There is very little fat overlying the collarbone, so I would not recommend CoolSculpting or Kybella to that area.  You do not appear to have an excess of fat overlying your collarbones.  I would not recommend any treatment for that area on you.

Good day and thank you for the question. As my colleagues have stated, there is not much fat in the collarbone area. So, whatever procedure you and your doctor decide upon, you will want to tread lightly. I would advise against traditional liposuction as that could affect the balance of your breasts and surrounding areas. The micro-contouring capabilities of something like VASER liposuction may be effective at sculpting the area of concern. But I would personally investigate some minimally-invasive procedures first.  We do CoolSculpting at my Los Angeles practice all the time. It is, indeed, an effective way to target stubborn pockets of fat in a minimally-invasive way. There are also a number of radiofrequency devices currently being used by MedSpas across the US. RF energy liquifies adipose fat tissue, causing some fat reduction and tightening the skin above. You may find the results you seek in RF treatment because the tighter skin could accentuate your collarbones.

I would not recommend getting rid of the fat over the collarbone since the amount of that fat there is extremely small. As you get older that fat will disappear and create a much skinnier appearance no matter what you try to do. If you want more definition in the collarbone,nyou can use temporary fillers such as radiesse injected over the collar bone and that will make it stick out more sharply. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City
