You’ll notice your results develop gradually as your body processes the treated fat. Most patients see significant improvements within 4 to 6 weeks, with optimal results appearing after a few months. The timeline depends on the specific treatment method used and your body’s natural response. Some patients may need multiple sessions for the best outcome.

Eliminate Stubborn Chin Fat for a Sculpted, Confident Profile
Where Precision Meets Possibility — Surgical and Nonsurgical Solutions in One Place
Discover effective solutions to reduce excess fat and tighten skin without surgery.
A double chin can be frustrating and hard to get rid of, even with a healthy lifestyle. A customized double chin treatment in Monterey at Gallery Aesthetics can refine your jawline and restore a more youthful, sculpted profile.
A double chin — whether caused by genetics, aging, or weight changes — can soften your jawline and hide the natural definition of your face. Even with a healthy lifestyle, that small pocket of fat often refuses to budge.
That’s why patients throughout Monterey and the Central Coast trust our expert team of plastic surgeons to deliver results that are precise, safe, and beautifully natural.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your downtime will vary based on which treatment you choose, since minimally invasive treatments may cause mild swelling or tenderness for a few days, while noninvasive options allow you to return to daily activities immediately.
Avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sun exposure for the first few days to support optimal healing. Your Gallery Aesthetics provider will talk through your personalized aftercare instructions after your double chin treatment in Monterey.
The good news—you can often enjoy your results permanently, especially with CoolSculpting or neck lifts. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet helps avoid unwanted developments, such as your double chin coming back. We also recommend staying hydrated and using skincare products that promote collagen production to support long-term improvements.
