You’ve hit the gym, counted calories, and even lost weight, yet that double chin sticks around like it didn’t get the memo. It’s frustrating, and you might be wondering if a few more laps or a cleaner diet will finally do the trick.
Here’s the reality: Not all fat responds to exercise the same way. Fat under the chin (submental fat) is especially resistant.
This blog will dispel common myths about double chins and explain why targeted fat reduction may be a more effective option. At Skin Deep Laser MD, Dr. Laura Riehm offers safe, physician-led body sculpting treatments, including WarmSculpting®, to help patients see better results and achieve their dream physiques.Â
Top 3 Double Chin Myths
If you want to say goodbye to your double chin, you first need to separate fact from fiction. Here are some of the most common myths perpetuated about stubborn submental fat.
Myth #1: You Can Spot-Reduce Fat With Neck Exercises
Unfortunately, you can’t “tone” a double chin away. Spot reduction is a myth. Targeting fat loss in one specific area isn’t possible through exercise alone.
Myth #2: Only Overweight People Get Double Chins
Plenty of slim individuals struggle with submental fullness. The issue often has more to do with bone structure, posture, and heredity than weight alone.
Myth #3: Surgery Is the Only Solution
You don’t have to go under the knife to see results. Therapies like WarmSculpting use laser energy to decrease fat beneath the chin with no downtime.
