No double chin, no surgery, no kidding!
Studies show that many men and women are bothered by fat under the chin. Even those who are naturally slim may fall victim to a double chin, thanks to factors such as lifestyle, aging, and genetics.
If your double chin is making you feel self-conscious, you’re definitely not alone—and now you have more options than ever. La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre & Medical Spa in San Diego offers CoolMini, a popular and effective non-surgical fat reduction treatment from the makers of CoolSculpting®. We use this small applicator to reduce troublesome fat under the chin, without surgery and little to no downtime.

Using the same proprietary cryolipolysis technology as CoolSculpting, CoolMini works by cooling fat cells to the specific temperature where they crystallize and break down. Over time, your body will naturally eliminate the affected fat cells, leaving you with noticeably less fullness under your chin within a couple of months.
Traditionally, pockets of fat under the chin required more invasive procedures, such as neck liposuction, to achieve successful results. CoolMini is the first and only treatment of its kind that is FDA-cleared to treat submental fullness using cryolipolysis.
After consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon or licensed aesthetician , you’ll settle into a soft chair in our welcoming treatment room. The CoolMini device will then be gently and precisely applied to your problem area. Treatment typically lasts about an hour, and while you may feel some pressure and intense cold initially, treatment should be relatively comfortable. After that, you’re good to go! You can resume normal activity right away and begin enjoying the benefits.
Most of our patients are pleased with their results after just one to two treatments, making CoolMini a great option for those who want great results without a huge time commitment.
CoolMini is specially designed to treat small volume areas of fat, and the size, shape, and curve of the device is a perfect fit for many smaller problem areas. Here’s what it can do:
Since 1988, more than 36,000 patients have had safe, successful procedures at La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre & Medical Spa.
