This is a clinical procedure and is also known as liposculpture. This procedure uses the heat from a laser or liposuction to melt away the extra fat that is causing the double chin to appear. One major side effect of lipolysis is that while removing the fat, it does not remove the excess skin. You may need surgery afterward to deal with the extra skin that is left. 

This particular remedy involves the usage of fat-reducing injections to help you get rid of double chin problems. Deoxycholic acid which is also known as Kybella is injected in the area where there is excess fat. This FDA-approved acid effectively helps your body in absorbing all the excess fat. 

The procedure can take up to 6 months to complete one full treatment per sitting. Remember that this procedure, if done incorrectly, can lead to severe nerve damage, and only a board-certified dermatologist should perform it.
