Double Chin Treatment
in Delhi — Non-Surgical Contouring
Fat-dissolving injections and skin-tightening protocols for submental fat, administered by MD dermatologists at Monaris, Defence Colony — no surgery, no general anaesthesia.
Why Submental Fat Doesn't Respond to Diet or Exercise Alone
Fat under the chin — medically called submental fat — is often stubborn regardless of overall weight or fitness level, and is influenced significantly by genetics, ageing skin laxity and posture habits. Non-surgical fat-dissolving injections target these specific fat cells directly, offering an alternative to surgery for patients who want visible contouring without a scalpel.
Dr. Arihant Surana and Dr. Geetali Kharghoria assess your chin and jawline profile at consultation to confirm whether injections, skin-tightening technology, or a combination will give you the best outcome — some patients with looser skin need a tightening protocol alongside fat reduction for the best result.
Who Is a Good Candidate
- Mild to moderate submental (under-chin) fullness, with reasonably firm skin
- Looking for a non-surgical alternative to liposuction or a neck lift
- Realistic expectations of gradual improvement over several sessions, not overnight change
- No active skin infections or bleeding disorders in the treatment area
- Not pregnant or breastfeeding at the time of treatment
Patients with significant skin laxity or a larger volume of fat may be better suited to a combined approach or referred for a surgical opinion — your dermatologist will be upfront about this at consultation rather than promising results that don't fit your anatomy.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does fat-dissolving injection treatment work?+
Fat-dissolving injections use a solution that breaks down fat cells under the chin, which are then naturally cleared by the body over several weeks. Results build gradually across a course of sessions rather than appearing after a single visit.
How many sessions are needed?+
Most patients need 2 to 4 sessions spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart, depending on the amount of submental fat and the individual's response to treatment.
Is there downtime?+
Mild swelling, tenderness or bruising under the chin is common for a few days to a week. Most patients return to normal activities the same day, though visible swelling may affect appearance briefly.
Am I a candidate if I have loose skin under my chin?+
Possibly — but significant skin laxity may need a combined approach with a skin-tightening treatment, or in some cases a surgical opinion. Your dermatologist will assess this honestly at consultation.
