A little while ago, a patient came to see me in the clinic.

The patient was in their mid-30s, and although their weight had not changed much, they said that over the past few years, their jawline had gradually started to feel less defined.

“Doctor, I used to not look like this... I haven’t gained weight, so why does the area under my chin look so saggy?” From the expression on their face as they asked, I could sense how deeply they were worried.

In fact, this is a concern that many people have. It is especially true in today’s world, where video conferences are frequent and people take photos often.

Many people say that they look fine from the front, but when they see their side profile or a view from below, they worry because their jawline does not look distinct.

So today, I’d like to talk in detail about Violet, a treatment commonly referred to as a double chin fat injection.

Why does a double chin develop?

The accumulation of fat under the chin, which we commonly call a double chin, appears as a result of several combined factors.

The most common cause is, of course, the buildup of subcutaneous fat. As our body ages, metabolism slows down, and the area under the chin especially tends to store fat easily and lose it slowly.

Another cause is reduced skin elasticity. From the late 20s onward, ingredients that help maintain skin elasticity, such as collagen and elastin, gradually decrease, and the skin begins to sag downward.

Just as an old rubber band stretches out, the skin also loses elasticity, and the jawline becomes less defined.

And one thing many people surprisingly overlook is posture. These days, because we spend so much time looking at our smartphones, we often keep our heads bent downward.

When this posture is repeated, the muscles under the chin can weaken, and fat can accumulate more easily.

Genetic factors also cannot be ignored. If someone in your family has a double chin, there is a high chance that you may have that tendency as well.

What is Violet?

Violet is a type of double chin fat injection, and medically, it is called a fat-dissolving injection.

It is a non-surgical procedure that breaks down and removes subcutaneous fat accumulated under the chin.

Many people are interested in it because it can improve the jawline without the burden of surgery.

The main ingredient in Violet is a substance called deoxycholic acid, which is a type of bile acid naturally produced in the body.

When this ingredient destroys the membrane of fat cells, the contents inside the fat cells are released, and then naturally eliminated through the body’s lymphatic system.

The biggest advantage of this procedure is that once the fat cells are broken down, they do not regenerate.

With regular dieting, only the size of fat cells decreases, while the number of cells remains the same, so the yo-yo effect can happen easily.

But a double chin fat injection reduces the fat cells themselves, so the effect can last for a longer time.

Does aftercare matter too?

The patient also had another question.

“Is the procedure the end of it? Do I need any special aftercare?” Yes, that’s right. While the procedure is important, daily care is also very important.

First, posture correction is necessary. No matter how much of a double chin fat injection you get, if you continue to keep your head down, your jawline can become less defined again.

When looking at your smartphone, try to make a habit of raising it to eye level, and when using a computer, it is good to adjust the monitor height appropriately.

Exercises that strengthen the muscles around the chin can also help. Open your mouth wide and repeat the pronunciation of “ah, eh, ee, oh, oo.”

Even doing this about 10 to 15 times a day can help you feel the muscles under your chin becoming firmer. Dietary habits are also important.

Eating salty foods can easily cause swelling, and this can make the jawline look less defined.

Getting enough water helps remove waste products from the body. In particular, because lymphatic circulation is important after the procedure, it is a good idea to drink water frequently.

Weight management is also essential. Even if the number of fat cells has been reduced through a double chin fat injection, if your overall weight increases, the remaining fat cells can grow larger and the area under the chin may become thicker again.

Rather than an extreme diet, consistent exercise and a balanced diet are the answer.

I feel like my concern is being eased little by little

A few weeks later, when that patient came back to the clinic, there was a clear change in their expression.

“Doctor, honestly, at first I was skeptical, but every time I look in the mirror, I can feel my jawline becoming a little clearer. My friends also say that something seems different.”

I was truly happy. We think of this not as a simple treatment, but as a process of completing your beauty.

Seeing that person regain their confidence made me feel that I’m glad I do this work.

But there was one thing I made sure to tell them. “Just because you see results, you should not neglect aftercare. The procedure is only the beginning, and continuous care is the key to maintaining the results for a long time.”

They nodded and promised that they would continue looking after themselves consistently.

A message from Leejham Dermatology

Our philosophy at Leejham Dermatology is clear. We pursue naturalness without overdoing it and long-lasting trust.

Every skin is different, so rather than simply offering a procedure, we strive to provide diagnosis and solutions tailored to each person’s skin.

To those who are worried about a double chin, I want to say this. Rather than worrying alone, it is better to get accurate information and find out what method is right for you.

A double chin fat injection such as Violet may be one option, and depending on the case, lifting procedures or other combination treatments may be necessary.

Above all, what matters most is naturalness without overdoing it. Rather than dramatic change, it is about making your original features healthier and more beautiful.

That is the value we pursue. More than a one-time procedure, we want to build a relationship you can trust for a long time.
