Though many of us wish this weren’t the case, our bodies genetically store fat below the chin and jawline. This condition, more commonly known as a “double chin” can happen to anyone, regardless of their weight or body type. Wondering how to get rid of your double chin fat without surgical options? Excess fat under the chin has a name: it’s called submental fullness.
We offer chin contouring solutions to target and address the appearance of a double chin. The best part is, the injectable treatments for double chins that we offer here at Victoria Park Medispa are easier and more accessible than you thought possible.
Skin Laser Clinic Peterborough, now Victoria Park Medispa Peterborough, was founded in 2008 with a mission to help people look and feel their best, while providing access to today’s leading technologies and expertise. Its outstanding team continues to be led by Dr. Melinda J. Gooderham, dermatologist and medical director.
Belkyra™ (also known by its American brand name Kybella®), is a non-invasive chin slimming option used to dissolve fat in this region. Victoria Park Medispa was pleased to be one of the first facilities to offer Belkyra™ in Montreal. We’re also proud to be designated a training centre for teaching our experts how to properly administer Belkyra™.
Belkyra™ is a Health Canada-approved product that we inject directly into the chin. This dissolves existing fat cells. Once eliminated, the outcome is a more defined—or “snatched”—chin and jawline area. The active ingredient, deoxycholic acid, is a similar synthetic version of a molecule that your body produces naturally to break down fat. As the product enters the body, it destroys fat membranes. Any remaining fat cells are absorbed back into the body—demonstrating the effectiveness of deoxycholic acid injections at work.Belkyra™ (also known by its American brand name Kybella®), is a non-invasive chin slimming option used to dissolve fat in this region.

Liposuction involves a minimally invasive surgical procedure with local anesthesia. There is a special device such as a laser, in the case of SmartLipo, inserted into the fat of the double chin and where the fat is melted. The melted fat is aspirated out and removed. The advantage of liposuction for a double chin, triple chin or even quadruple chin is the immediate removal of fat in a single stage. However, it does require between 3 and 7 days of recovery and a modest degree of bruising and discomfort. Clients seeking a one-time treatment and an alternative to liposuction for their chin can discuss the possibilities with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Clients that want a noticeable improvement of a double chin, but performed subtly without any incision, sutures or recovery over time are good candidates
Victoria Park Medispa is pleased to offer multiple options to treat your double chin. This means you can choose the best chin fat removal solution that’s best suited for you based on your needs. For larger submental fullness, we find that CoolSculpting treatment for double chin can work best. Where there is not an issue of fat, but of skin laxity, we find that Thermage, Ultherapy, or Exilis can work best. We have also found that dermal fillers are optimal when it comes to improving the jawline contour. Dermal fillers are among our favourite treatments for helping our patients achieve a better facial profile. These have an impactful difference in reducing the appearance of a double chin. Clients may also prefer or be best served by a surgical option from one of our board-certified plastic surgeons. The only way to know which
A consultation with one of our physician specialists where all your questions can be answered is the recommended starting point for determining the treatment, or combination of treatments, that is uniquely right for you.
Generally, injectable treatments for double chins are intended to provide permanent results. This is because Belkyra™ eliminates existing fat cells. However, if you put on weight in the future, any remaining fat cells could cause fat to return.
