Double Chin and Facial Contour Concerns: Improving Them with Ulthera and Square Jaw Botox at Wangsimni Dermatology Clinic

Procedures by Cause for Double Chin Contouring

Hello, this is Raon Dermatology Clinic in Wangsimni!

When facial contours look blurry, the jawline is the area that draws attention first. In particular, when a double chin forms, the whole face can appear wider and the overall impression may feel dull, which often becomes a bigger concern. The cause may be fat, or it may be that the muscles around the jaw have developed, or that skin elasticity has decreased. Today, we will explain how to distinguish these causes and which treatments may help according to each condition, step by step.

Procedures by Cause for Double Chin Contouring

Concerns About Facial Contours

The reason the jawline looks compromised cannot be summed up in just one way. The most familiar form is double chin fat, where the fat layer under the chin becomes thicker and the line slopes down in a rounded shape. It tends to accumulate evenly regardless of weight changes, so if the boundary between the neck and chin often looks especially blurry in photos, this is likely a possibility.

Another form is when the chewing muscles become developed, making the jaw appear wider like a square jaw. If habits that use these muscles continue for a long time, not only does the line look firmly angular, but the surrounding tissue may also be pressed by the area where force is concentrated, which can further blur the jawline. If decreased skin elasticity is added on top of this, the skin under the chin can be pulled downward, making the double chin more pronounced. So through an accurate identification of the cause, it is important to first check which factor is dominant among fat, muscle, and elasticity.

Concerns About Facial Contours

Ulthera Lifting

If you are concerned about a sagging jawline, you may consider Ulthera lifting, which is based on high-intensity ultrasound. Since the energy is focused and delivered to a single point, it can reach deep into the skin and is used to lift skin that has lost elasticity and settled downward. In particular, because it can reach the SMAS layer, a fascial layer, it is expected to improve structural support rather than just surface elasticity.

Ulthera works by creating microscopic coagulation points in the areas where each burst of energy reaches, and as the surrounding tissue recovers, the elastic fibers are reorganized. That is why there are many cases where a feeling of tightening appears immediately after the procedure and then stable improvement continues over time. It is often chosen in consultations because it creates a natural lifting effect for those whose jawline looks heavy.

• Ultrasound energy / focused at a single point

• Strengthens support structure of the SMAS layer

• Elasticity gradually increases / sagging improves

Ulthera Benefits & Effects

The reason Ulthera draws attention lies in its precise treatment structure. During the procedure, the ultrasound screen can be viewed in real time, allowing direct confirmation of the skin layer where the energy should reach, so unnecessary areas can be avoided and only the target layer can be precisely targeted. This type of lifting, performed while directly viewing the layers, has the advantage of high safety and efficiency!

In addition, tips with three depths—1.5 mm, 3.0 mm, and 4.5 mm—can be combined as needed, making a customized approach possible depending on where elasticity has decreased and the thickness of the skin. For example, the 3.0 mm and 4.5 mm tips are mainly used under the chin where the skin is thicker, while the 1.5 mm tip is mainly used around the eyes where the skin is thinner. After lifting, sagging improves naturally over the course of several months, so it is widely applied for those concerned about facial contours.

Violet

If the cause of the double chin is fat, Violet injections can also be an effective choice. Using deoxycholic acid, this approach induces the process of breaking down fat cell membranes, and it is characterized by directly addressing the accumulated fat layer regardless of weight changes. Rather than simply reducing swelling, it creates changes in the fat cells themselves, so it is used for people in whom fat accumulation is clearly observed.

Violet can be used with delicate dose adjustments in areas where the fat layer is thinly distributed, such as under the chin. The broken-down fat is cleared through the body’s natural metabolic process, helping reduce the rounded volume below the jawline and making the contour cleaner. The procedure time is short and returning to daily life is easy, which makes it quite popular :)

• Deoxycholic acid / breaks down fat cell membranes

• Broken-down fat / eliminated through the body’s metabolic process

• Reduces double chin volume / makes the contour clearer

Coretox

If the reason the jawline looks wide is the development of the chewing muscles, square jaw Botox using Coretox is appropriate. It works on areas where the muscles have become excessively thick, reducing overuse of the muscles! Over time, the muscle thickness is gradually reduced. In this process, a natural jawline line is revealed, and the square shape can also be softened.

Coretox is a toxin purified to remove protein impurities, so the likelihood of immune reactions is relatively low even with repeated use. In other words, one advantage is that even those who have received injections several times can more easily expect consistent results! Since the treatment choice changes depending on whether fat, elasticity, or muscle stands out, the process of finding the most suitable combination for you is more important than anything else.

<Coretox advantages>

• Almost no tolerance response

• Consistent effect even with repeated procedures

• Reduces excessive muscle use / softer jawline
