How To Get Rid of a Double Chin: Your Treatment Options At MFI
Targeted Treatment: Chin & Jawline Filler for Double Chin
When assessing patients with a “double chin,” it’s important to look at chin projection first, as an underdeveloped chin and weak jawline are frequently the culprits. When we build up a small or recessed chin and add structure to the jawline with filler, it pulls the tissue under the chin taut, reducing the appearance of a double chin.
This is an example of how chin filler can help reduce a double chin.
The Ultimate: Illumination 360° Full Face
Our Illumination 360° Full Face approach delivers more than just a sleeker neckline — it creates total facial harmony. Instead of treating the area in isolation, we address the surrounding features that shape your profile: lifting the cheeks to support the lower face, refining the jawline for crisp definition, and balancing the chin for optimal projection. By combining expertly placed filler with strategic BOTOX® or other neuromodulators, we smooth fullness under the chin while enhancing the angles and contours that make your whole face look more sculpted, youthful, and on point.
Illumination 360° Full Face treatment replaced lost volume in the under-eyes, cheeks, and jawline, tightening the profile and reducing sagging under the chin. The result is a lifted, structured look with natural balance.
BOTOX slimmed the lower face by targeting the parotid muscles, while filler enhanced the chin and jawline. The treatment reduced roundness, sharpened his profile, and created a more masculine contour.
Full-face rejuvenation with filler and neuromodulators restored midface volume, refined the chin, and smoothed the neck-to-jaw transition. The result is a fresh, rested look with improved profile definition.
As part of her treatment plan, we added volume under the eyes, lifted the cheeks, and refined the chin and jawline. This layering approach enhanced facial structure and smoothed fullness beneath the chin.

Some folks just have a naturally small chin that doesn’t offer much support, making a double chin more likely.
Fat Happens
Being fit doesn’t guarantee a sleek jawline. Your body might just love storing extra padding under the chin, no matter your weight.
The Toll of Time
As we age, collagen dips and skin sags. This can send some extra volume to the lower face, contributing to a double chin.
So, there it is! Whether it’s your bone structure, your body’s fat storage habits, or the natural aging process, there’s more than one reason a double chin might be crashing your selfie game. But don’t stress, treatments are available to help you get that jawline back in shape!

Consultation and Planning for Your Double Chin Treatment
Your First Visit
You’ll be greeted at our beautiful San Francisco office by our friendly team, then taken to a treatment room to consult with your Injector. Your personalized consultation includes a discussion of your aesthetic goals and a thorough physical examination, including professional-level photography. Once they determine the best treatment path for you, your Injector creates a precise treatment plan.
Please plan to spend about 90 minutes to 2 hours in the office for your first visit, which includes consultation, prep, treatment, pre- and post-treatment photography, aftercare education, and scheduling your next appointment. The injections themselves only take a few minutes and cause minimal discomfort.
Your Procedure
CHIN FILLER is placed in different areas to build, layer, sculpt, and contour the lower face. The amount, location, type, and depth of filler are modified according to your desired results. We may use a combination of fillers and place them in locations including just under the skin, under the muscle, or on the underlying bone.
Our skilled Injectors place JAWLINE FILLER just beneath the skin (subcutaneous) to build and sculpt a more defined jawline. For the mandibular angle, we place the filler just under the skin and directly on the bone to increase the prominence of the angle.
Your Double Chin Will Look Better After at Least Two Treatments
Chin and jawline filler requires a minimum of two appointments. This staged approach allows us to create structure and support, which are key to natural-looking results. Too much filler all at once can create overfilled, obvious results; we prefer to build and layer until we get it just right.
We wait 1 to 3 months for swelling to resolve before adding filler only where it is needed. At this point, we can place filler in the smaller areas knowing that we have the support in place to keep it there.
For the best experience, follow these tips in advance of your appointment:
A few days before your appointment, restrict blood thinners, such as anti-inflammatories, fish oil, and alcohol. Limiting these will reduce your risk of bruising from filler.
DO NOT discontinue prescribed, medically necessary medications.
Eat and drink a normal breakfast or lunch prior to your appointment; low blood sugar can make patients lightheaded during treatment.
Recovery & Aftercare
Minor swelling and redness are typical and diminish after a few days.
Bruising
Bruising is common with chin and jawline filler, but typically resolves in a few days.
Redness & Discomfort
Often minimal and lasting just a few days
Your treated areas may be tender to the touch
Downtime
No downtime required
May return to work immediately after treatment
May resume normal exercise the next day
Because we know you have questions about your recovery process, we created an entire page dedicated to BOTOX and dermal filler aftercare.
