A brand name for an injectable treatment using deoxycholic acid to destroy fat cells under the chin, specifically targeting a double chin. The body naturally absorbs the destroyed fat cells, leading to a slimmer jawline.
Pros: Permanent results for eliminated fat cells, minimally invasive, non-surgical alternative to liposuction.
Cons: May require multiple treatment sessions to achieve desired results, swelling and bruising possible after injection, not effective for weight loss or overall facial slimming.
Alternatives: Liposuction (more invasive but can address larger areas), surgical neck lift (more invasive but provides broader improvement).
Recovery: Minimal downtime, but swelling, bruising, and tenderness are common for several days.
