Quick answer · What is Double Chin?
A double chin is fullness under the chin caused by submental fat, skin laxity or both, influenced by genetics, jaw shape and weight. At RE:BERRY it is treated without surgery using fat-dissolving injections that break down small fat pockets, plus Onda, HIFU or RF to tighten the skin. Injections take about 15–20 minutes with swelling for a few days; most patients need two to four sessions, and results build over several weeks.
- Typical plan
- Injections every 2–4 weeks plus tightening
- Session
- 15–60 min
- Downtime
- Swelling 2–5 days
- Results
- Gradual over 2–4 sessions
How it works
Reducing fat and firming the skin together
Fat-dissolving injections break down fat cells under the chin, which the body clears over the following weeks. Because removing fat can leave loose skin, Onda microwave, focused ultrasound or RF devices are often added to tighten the area so the jawline looks more defined.
-
Diagnosis
Your doctor checks how much of the fullness is fat versus loose skin or jaw shape, and tells you if liposuction would suit you better.
-
Tailored treatment
Fat-dissolving injections are placed under the chin after numbing, and a tightening device is added where skin is loose.
-
Follow-up
Swelling settles within days; repeat injections every two to four weeks and tightening results build over three months.
Before & after

FAQ
Double Chin questions we hear every day
Can a double chin be removed without surgery?
Small to moderate double chins can often be reduced noticeably with fat-dissolving injections and tightening. Very large fullness or very loose skin may need a surgical opinion.
Which treatment is best for a double chin?
Mostly fat suits fat-dissolving injections or Onda, mostly loose skin suits HIFU or RF lifting, and many people benefit from both. Your doctor decides after assessing the area.
How many sessions will I need?
Most patients need two to four injection sessions two to four weeks apart. Tightening devices are often a single session with results building over three months.
Is there downtime?
Swelling, tenderness and mild bruising under the chin are common for two to five days after injections. Tightening devices usually have little downtime.
Can I sightsee after treatment?
Yes. Most patients go out the same day; a scarf or high collar hides swelling. Avoid saunas and alcohol for a day or two.
How much does double chin treatment cost in Myeongdong?
Price depends on the method, amount and number of sessions. The same price list applies to every nationality and is given to you in writing before treatment. See our lifting price list.
