Consisting of a combination of HIFU (High Intensity Focus Ultrasound) and a series of injections this is a fast and effective way of removing stubborn deposits of fat for a more contoured jawline and neck profile.

It’s a common concern for both men and women that no matter how much you diet or exercise, the fullness under the chin are a may not go away. It may be a factor of aging, genetics or appear as a result of weight changes.

This may cause you to feel and look heavier or older than you are.

A synthetic form of deoxycholic acid which occurs naturally in our bodies is injected into the treatment area. Fat cell membranes are destroyed when injected with this treatment allowing the fat within the cell to be released and then naturally eliminated by the body.
