Start by identifying the cause—not choosing a device
The appearance commonly called a double chin can involve submental fat, loose skin, anatomy, or more than one factor. Identifying the cause is essential because fat-reduction and skin-lifting treatments do different jobs.
Ultherapy is FDA-cleared to lift lax tissue beneath the chin; it is not a fat-removal treatment. If submental fullness is the main concern, your clinician may discuss a different treatment category.
How Ultherapy may fit
Match the treatment to the anatomy
Ultherapy may fit when lax under-chin tissue is the concern. It does not remove submental fat, so an individualized assessment should distinguish laxity from fullness.
Ultherapy uses ultrasound imaging and focused ultrasound energy to stimulate the body’s collagen-building response. Changes develop gradually and vary by person.

Under-chin concerns FAQs
Is a double chin always caused by fat?
No. Submental fat, skin laxity, anatomy, or a combination can create a similar appearance. The cause changes which treatment may be appropriate.
Does Ultherapy remove chin fat?
No. Ultherapy is a skin-lifting treatment, not a fat-removal procedure. It may be discussed when lax tissue beneath the chin is the concern.
Which double chin treatment is best?
There is no single best option for everyone. The appropriate path depends on whether fullness, laxity, anatomy, health history, and downtime preferences are driving the decision.
