Submental Fat Reduction with Injectables: Patient Selection and Injection Protocol

Submental fat reduction — the non-surgical treatment of the area beneath the chin that patients refer to as a 'double chin' — is the most evidence-supported, most precisely understood, and most widely practised injectable lipolytic application in aesthetic medicine. The zone has a defined fat compartment with reasonably predictable anatomy, a pharmaceutical-grade active agent with multiple Phase 3 RCTs behind it (deoxycholic acid, branded as Kybella/Belkyra), and a well-characterised safety profile built from extensive clinical experience.
