Double Chin Reduction & Jawline Contouring in Sydney
Refine the jawline, improve lower-face balance, and create a more sculpted profile with a personalised treatment plan.
At Medical Aesthetics 360, under-chin fullness is assessed in context. Rather than focusing on fullness alone, treatment planning considers skin quality, chin support, jawline definition, and overall facial harmony.
Treatment at a glance
A more streamlined way to understand the concern
A double chin is not always caused by one factor alone. The most balanced result often comes from understanding what is contributing most in your case.
Fat
Localised under-chin fat can create fullness and soften the angle between the chin and neck.
Skin laxity
Looser skin and reduced elasticity can make the lower face and neck appear less defined.
Structure
Chin projection and jawline support also affect profile balance and lower-face contour.
Why under-chin fullness happens
Under-chin fullness can be influenced by multiple factors, which is why treatment should be selected according to the actual cause rather than treated as a one-size-fits-all concern.
Common contributing factors
- Submental fat accumulation under the chin
- Skin laxity and reduced elasticity
- Genetics
- Ageing-related tissue change
- Weight fluctuation
- Limited chin projection or softer jawline structure
Why a balanced plan matters
- Reducing fullness alone may not always create the best contour
- Some patients also benefit from skin tightening support
- Some concerns are linked more to profile balance than volume alone
- A tailored plan helps keep the result refined and natural-looking

Pathways for double chin reduction and contour refinement

Typical plan: multiple sessions may be recommended depending on the area.
