(jowls)
Do you know what causes and how to treat a double chin?
Find out in this article.
To understand the cause, it is necessary to understand what type of double chin is, as there are three types caused either by excess fat, sagging or a combination of these two factors. The fat located in the jowls may be due to excess weight or genetic issues in which there is muscle and skin flaccidity that leads to the accumulation of fat in that area.
The natural aging process or weight loss causes sagging and the appearance of jowls. Finally, we have the double chin caused by the combination of the two factors, that is, excess fat and sagging. In these cases, excess fat causes even more sagging due to weight, making the double chin more accentuated.
How to eliminate the papacy?
The treatment for jowls will depend a lot on the type of jowls you have. For example, in a double chin caused by fat accumulation, procedures are indicated whose objective is to eliminate localized fat, such as Liposuction or Belkyra. In the case of jowls caused by sagging, treatments will be indicated to promote more firmness of the skin, such as Radiofrequency, Ultraformer III, Tensor Wires or a Lifting. In the case of double chin caused by the association of the two factors, the doctor will indicate combined procedures.

Testimonials from our patients
Dr. Fátima Baptista Fernandes started taking care of me and I am grateful. After aggressive chemotherapy, the skin on my face lacked elasticity and firmness. The wrinkles were very marked. Looking in the mirror became uncomfortable. I'm looking for myself, without the memory of cancer. And Dr. Fátima Baptista Fernandes has been exceptional to me. Walk slowly, don't rush.
I had surgery in February this year. These are fairy hands from Dr. Fátima Baptista Fernandes and the entire team. Thank you all!
Dr. João is one of the best surgeons I know. I speak from experience because a few years ago the Doctor and his wife did a reconstruction on my stomach which was not easy at all and it was impeccable, which is why I always recommend their names. A year ago I took my bedpan to the Clinic for a breast augmentation and it looked spectacular! They are special people. Friendly, accessible and very aware of the work they do. They are excellent professionals.
Dr. Fátima Baptista Fernandes is a doctor who, in addition to being super cheerful and cheerful, is extremely professional with supreme dedication to her patients and their cases. My husband has been a patient of Dr. Fátima for a few years now... She is his doctor of choice and he won't change it!
