Double chin surgery in Seoul, Korea
Double chin surgery in Gangnam, Seoul at Marble Plastic Surgery: liposuction, neck tightening or chin advancement chosen according to the cause.
Typical ranges for double chin surgery; your surgeon confirms the details at consultation.
What is double chin surgery?
Double chin surgery removes fullness under the chin by liposuction, tightening of the neck muscle, chin advancement or a combination. At Marble Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, Seoul, a board-certified plastic surgeon identifies whether fat, loose skin or a small chin is the cause before recommending treatment.
A double chin is not always fat. A short or receding chin shortens the jawline so that normal tissue bunches beneath it, and with age the skin and platysma muscle loosen. Matching the procedure to the cause is what gives a clean jawline.
Who is double chin surgery for?
Suitability is decided at a 1:1 consultation with your surgeon.
- Fat under the chin that does not respond to diet
- Loose skin or muscle bands under the chin
- A small chin that makes the neck look full
- People who want a clearer jawline in profile

Frequently asked questions
What is the best treatment for a double chin?
It depends on the cause: liposuction for fat, a neck lift for loose skin and muscle, and chin augmentation when the chin is small.
Can a double chin be treated without surgery?
Injections and energy devices can reduce small fat deposits modestly. Surgery gives a more definite change.
How soon will I see results?
A change is visible once early swelling settles in one to two weeks, and improves further as the skin tightens.
