As we age, loss of skin elasticity, reduction of collagen production and weight gain can all contribute to the formation of the dreaded double chin. Though it is one of the most common side effects of aging, it is also one of the most frustrating. Often times, even with a substantial amount of weight loss, a double chin simply won’t budge. Years ago, this left men and women with few options. Most had to undergo expensive and risky cosmetic surgery procedures if they wanted to remove the stubborn fat deposits beneath the chin. Thankfully, advancements in technology and skin care have created new methods of double chin removal, that don’t require invasive conventional surgery. The Harley Institute Institute in Atlanta, Georgia is proud to provide a variety of techniques that can help you reduce the appearance of a double chin, without struggling with the hassles of traditional liposuction or facelifts. Â
Many men and women struggle with hormone imbalance, and uncontrollable weight gain is a common consequence. Whether you’re suffering from unnatural levels of progesterone, testosterone or estrogen, bioidentical hormone therapy can help restore your system to the appropriate equilibrium. Once your hormones are back to normal levels, you’ll have increased energy, a revitalized libido, and an increased likelihood of shedding excess fat.Â
Lipo contouring involves a combination of Vaser Lipo and Smart Lipo technologies that use the power of laser and high frequency sound vibrations to melt fat cells so they can be gently and easily removed from stubborn areas like the chin and neck. Lipo contouring provides similar results as conventional liposuction, but doesn’t require the same amount of down time, anesthesia or level of discomfort.Â
Ultherapy uses targeted ultrasound waves to tighten and firm loose skin. It lifts muscle, stimulates natural collagen production, reduces fine lines and wrinkles and helps to reduce fatty tissue that may be trapped in stubborn areas, including the chin and neck. Often called the “lunch break face liftâ€, Ultherapy has become a popular and effective way to get immediate and lasting results, without the need for cosmetic surgery.Â
Laser Genesis harnesses the power of laser technology by directing heat to a targeted area of the skin. It penetrates the top layers of skin, for cellular level rejuvenation and restoration. It’s ability to tighten skin, helps to reduce the appearance of sagging skin that can contribute to a double chin, and as an added benefit will help to remove wrinkles, improve sun damaged skin and create a more even complexion and skin texture.Â
