A double chin can be a complicated issue to deal with. Fortunately, there are many ways that people have attempted to get rid of it, but not all of them work the same for everyone. The best way to find what will work for you is by trying different techniques and seeing which ones give you the most positive results.
Luckily, it is possible to eliminate this unsightly issue if you’re unhappy with the appearance of your double chin.
What Leads to the Double Chin?
It is hard to say what leads to a double chin, but some associate it with an aging face. A person who has a double chin may also have an excess stomach or fatty tissue. He(she) can have different types of body shapes, which may lead to the appearance of a double chin.
For example, a pear-shaped body will emphasize the jawline and chin. A person can also be genetically predisposed to having a double chin.
Natural Ways to Eliminate a Double Chin
Below are some natural ways to help you reduce a double chin.
Exercises to Strengthen the Chin Muscles
Double chins are caused by excess fatty tissues in the lower face. Numerous factors can contribute to this, including genetics, age, and weight gain. While there is no one-size-fits-all solution for getting rid of a double chin, a few exercises can help strengthen the chin muscles and eliminate excess fat.
The first exercise is to place your hand on your head and push your chin towards your chest. You need to hold the position for five seconds and then relax.
Finally, you can do a jaw clenching exercise. Clench your jaw for 5 seconds, and then relax.
Eat a Healthy Diet
Eating the right and healthy foods is essential. Certain foods can help reduce pockets of fat that can accumulate under your chin. Some good food choices include apples, pears, grapefruit, celery, tomatoes, spinach, and green beans.
To stay hydrated, it is imperative that you drink plenty of water. The more water you drink, the less dry skin you will have, leading to fewer wrinkles and fine lines around your neck area.
Lose Weight to Create the Illusion of a Slimmer Face
One of the best ways to eliminate a double chin is to lose weight. When you lose weight, your face becomes slimmer, and the excess fat around your chin disappears. To achieve this, you need to create a calorie deficit by eating fewer calories than you burn.
Treatments for a Double Chin
There are a few treatments for a double chin. Surgery is one of them. A surgeon makes an incision under the chin and removes excess fat during the procedure.
Another therapy is by using laser therapy. The therapist will use a laser to destroy the fat cells. Finally, there is the use of injections such as Belkyra. Belkyra is a revolutionary fat-melting treatment that works to get rid of unwanted body fat. It is a safe and natural procedure that melts fat cells in the targeted area, dissolving them so your body can naturally break down dietary fats. No one will know you’ve had this treatment, your natural bone structure becomes more visible than ever before!
