Enzymatic double chin reduction is a minimally invasive treatment that uses natural enzymes to degrade and eliminate fat cells localized in the submental area. Unlike surgical procedures such as liposuction, this treatment requires no incisions, no general anesthesia and no prolonged recovery time.
The enzymes act directly on adipocytes, breaking their structure and allowing the body to eliminate them naturally through the lymphatic system. The result is a progressive and visible reduction of volume in the double chin area, achieving a more defined and masculine facial contour.
Initial private consultation. The specialist evaluates the submental area, determines the amount of localized fat and confirms the patient is a candidate for the treatment.
Enzyme application. Through microinjections, the enzymatic compound is administered directly into the fat deposits under the chin.
Degradation process. The enzymes begin to break down the membranes of fat cells in the days following the application.
Natural elimination. The body processes and discards the fatty waste through the lymphatic system gradually.
Follow-up sessions. Depending on the volume to be treated, between two and four spaced sessions may be required to achieve the desired result.
Expected results. Progressive and visible reduction of fat volume under the chin, achieving a more defined and masculine facial contour. The degree of change depends on the initial volume and the number of sessions performed.
Effect duration. Results are long-lasting: the eliminated fat cells do not regenerate. A significant weight gain can cause the remaining cells in the area to increase in size, so maintaining a stable weight is recommended.
Recovery and care. Immediate recovery; the patient can resume everyday activities the same day. Redness, mild swelling or mild sensitivity may occur in the area during the first days.
Is the treatment painful?
The procedure involves microinjections that may cause mild, momentary discomfort, similar to a pinch. Most patients tolerate it without difficulty. No anesthesia is required, although a topical anesthetic may be applied if the patient prefers.
How many sessions are needed to see results?
The number of sessions depends on the volume of fat to be treated. In general, between two and four sessions are recommended, spaced several weeks apart. The first changes are usually noticed from the second or third week after the first application.
How long does the effect of the treatment last?
Results are long-lasting. The eliminated fat cells do not regenerate. However, a significant weight gain can cause the remaining fat cells in the area to increase in size, so maintaining a stable weight is recommended.
Are there side effects?
Side effects are mild and temporary: redness, mild swelling or sensitivity in the treated area during the first days. These discomforts disappear spontaneously and do not interfere with daily activities.
How does this treatment differ from surgery?
Unlike surgical procedures, enzymatic reduction requires no incisions, leaves no scars, uses no general anesthesia and involves no prolonged postoperative period. It is an effective alternative for those seeking to improve the facial profile without going through the operating room.
