Causes of a double chin and how to eliminate it

Since 2000, the number of men seeking plastic and cosmetic procedures worldwide has increased by 60%.

In recent years, the number of people resorting to plastic surgery and aesthetic cosmetology has increased, as awareness of these procedures and the availability of the procedures themselves has increased. And if earlier plastic surgery and cosmetic care were considered the prerogative of the fair sex, today more and more men are discovering these effective methods that allow them to look in accordance with their inner age. Many politicians, businessmen, representatives of show business and other areas where excellent appearance is an important part of the profession are already using the possibilities of plastic surgery and cosmetology.

Blepharoplasty

Eyelid surgery is the most popular procedure among men. With age, the upper eyelids become heavier, the eyebrows droop, bags and bruises appear under the eyes, the face takes on the constantly tired and unhealthy appearance of a drinking person (even if the patient does not drink!).

In some patients, the skin of the eyelids droops so much that it even interferes with normal vision (then an ophthalmologist will refer you for plastic surgery)!

Fortunately, all these problems can be solved with the help of plastic surgery of the upper and lower eyelids - blepharoplasty.

Rhinoplasty for men

Men quite often turn to plastic surgeons specifically for nose surgery.

Firstly, because they are not satisfied with the size or shape of the nose. After all, for example, a particularly large nose can give some men an overly elderly appearance;
Secondly, plastic surgery is often sought by athletes or men leading an active lifestyle who want to restore the appearance and respiratory function of the nose after injury;
Finally, men seek rhinoplasty when they want to eliminate or soften some ethnic features of their faces. For example, remove the characteristic Caucasian hump or narrow an overly wide “Asian” nose.

Plastic and maxillofacial surgeon, Candidate of Medical Sciences Ekaterina Sergeevna Kudinova has all the modern capabilities to solve aesthetic and functional problems, taking into account the structural features of the male nose and skin density that is different from that of women. Particular importance is attached to ensuring that the nose after plastic surgery looks natural and masculine, without leaving any visible traces of the surgeon’s work.

CHIN

We're all told to "keep our chin up" from time to time. The shape of the chin indicates our ability to hold on when times get tough and bounce back from trauma or shock. The chin also shows how well we take criticism towards us.

The shape of the chin is a clear manifestation of individuality.

Powerful and clearly defined

Self confidence
Perseverance

You are confident, and maybe even aggressive. You are tenacious, have a well-developed survival instinct, and do not shy away from a fight.

Protruded forward

Toughie
Not the shy type

You usually have the last word in the dispute.
You are a tough nut to crack and never say “I give up.” You are not easily intimidated. Wide
Physical Endurance
You have great physical endurance and are not deterred by failure. You are not as vulnerable and sensitive as people with small chins. A wide chin can often be seen in managers and directors of large corporations.

Very wide

Incredible durability
Love to show off

You have incredible resilience and are able to easily bounce back from a difficult setback or loss that would break many others.
You love to show off, and sex is of great importance in your life. Long

Thoroughness
Innate physical strength

You have the same strength and stamina as people with wide chins.
You are practical and thorough, but you need to think more before communicating your thoughts to others. Small

Sensitive to criticism
Avoiding the fight

You are very sensitive to criticism; it often hurts you.
You don't need outside criticism because you are already constantly criticizing yourself. Rather, you need moral support and encouragement from others. You are not aggressive and do not like to compete. A small and rounded chin indicates a person who is timid and lacks willpower.

Sheared (stepping back)

Avoid conflicts
High ethical principles

You avoid conflict and rarely directly challenge other people.
You prefer consensus and compromise to open struggle. Your ethical principles are quite high, and you expect the same moral behavior from others. Rectangular

Idealism
Integrity

In your actions you follow your own ideals.
You are motivated by ideas and high goals in which you believe. You are conscientious in your work and always see things through to the end. A quadrangular and prominent chin most often belongs to energetic, decisive, and power-hungry people. A protruding chin shows a desire to preserve individuality, independence and a desire for solitude.

Pointed

Focused on ideas
Do you want to act independently?
Don't like to obey orders

The main thing for you is to follow your ideas and be your own boss. And you are capable of achieving anything in your own way. You really don't like it when someone tries to boss you around. You believe that the main thing is to achieve the goal, and the method is your own business. Therefore, you want the task to be thoroughly explained to you before giving orders.

Strongly pointed (especially if it is long and protruding)

Authoritarianism
Priority of goals

You are quite authoritarian in wanting everything to be your way.
You are a very difficult client, and can be cruel and merciless if the achievement of your goal requires it. For you, achieving goals is higher than people's feelings. A chin of medium size , round and moderately prominent indicates a balanced person.

The prominent front part of the chin indicates a passionate desire to be loved, and if this feature is strongly developed, then on the chin, in its lowest part, there is a dimple separating the chin.

A narrow chin shape , on the contrary, shows a desire to love, generosity and mercy. Those who have this trait are able to satisfy their partners’ desire to be loved, but they can also play an active role in relationships, shaping them at their own discretion.

People with flat chins tend to be cold, dry and self-loving.

A large, rounded, thick, double chin indicates a person in whom sensuality and instincts predominate.

A cleft and protruding chin most often belongs to people who are eccentric, quarrelsome and irritable.

Straight jaw angle - stress resistance, emotional stability, extroversion.

A sloping chin means untruthfulness, decreased diligence, and neglect of labor successes.

A high chin means responsibility, discipline, sincerity, hard work.

Wide chin - masculinity, lack of affectivity, weakening of fantasy, efficiency in business.

Dimples on the chin - interest in work and business efficiency.

Interpreters agree that a sharp chin, like a bent, pointed nose, signifies courage as well as anger. At the same time, a person can easily achieve victory in business.

Combination of chin and eyebrows

Understanding the relationships between different elements of the face plays an important role in physiognomy. The upper part of the face is associated with our thoughts and words, and the lower part with our actions. Therefore, the eyebrows indicate what we think and say, and the chin indicates how we act on these thoughts.

Round chin, arched eyebrows

Sensitivity and humanity

Your arched eyebrows indicate that you are always thinking about people, and your round chin shows your desire to help them. You have a warm and friendly nature. Responsive, generous, caring, you are truly a “humane person.”

Round chin, straight eyebrows

Pragmatic humanist

Your straight eyebrows indicate a psychological focus on ideas and ideals, but a round chin indicates that you do not lose sight of people's needs and feelings.

Round chin, broken eyebrows

Uninvited but responsible worker

Your broken eyebrows indicate that you like to keep everything under your control, but your round chin “clarifies” that you are not interested in power over people, but in the belief that “if you want something done right, it’s better to do it yourself.” . You strive for harmonious results.

Square chin, arched eyebrows

Focused on the goal
Follow logic

Curved eyebrows indicate that when you need to get things done, you highlight not the interests of people, but ideas that, in your opinion, can solve the problem.

Square chin, straight eyebrows

Focused on the goal
Follow logic

Achieving goals occupies your thoughts and actions. In your rationality and logic, you can compete with Mr. Spock from Star Travel.

Square chin, arched eyebrows

Combat commander
Psychologically suppress others
Focused on achieving your goals

Broken eyebrows indicate that you plan everything carefully, and then aggressively implement your ideas, regardless of the feelings of others and often even intimidating them. You would be a good army commander or chairman of the board of directors.

Pointed chin, arched eyebrows

Manipulator
Advertising agent or political advisor

Your arched eyebrows indicate a deep understanding of people, while a pointed chin suggests that you use this understanding to manipulate and gain greater control over the situation. You skillfully manage people and don’t let them relax. You would make a good advertising agent or political advisor.

Pointed chin, straight eyebrows

Focused on achieving goals
Less concerned with people's feelings

Your straight eyebrows and pointed chin indicate that you are more concerned with ideas and goals than with the interests of people. You are firm and responsible in achieving your goals, believing that the common cause is more important than personal interests. Figuratively speaking, you are not afraid to break a few eggs when making an omelet.

Pointed chin, broken eyebrows

Insensitivity
Cruelty
Don't compromise

You don't care about people's feelings and you can be very cruel. If your face does not have any softening features such as dimples, a snub nose, wide eyelids or full lips, you can be merciless and do not know pity or sympathy for others when implementing your plans. You do not accept compromises on ideals or goals and skillfully manipulate any situation to please yourself.

Face and neck lift

If you are unhappy with the signs of age on your face and want a radical rejuvenation effect, facelift plastic surgery is your choice. A facelift for men can help you achieve a fit, energetic, and fresh look.

Depending on the wishes and needs of the patient, a partial or full (circular) facelift can be performed. For example, lifting the upper third of the face - browlifting - is indicated for patients who want to get rid of drooping eyebrows, heavy eyelids and deep wrinkles on the forehead. Sometimes this procedure is performed in combination with blepharoplasty.

Patients complaining of ptosis (sagging) of the cheeks, deep nasolabial folds and double chin are recommended to have a lift of the middle and (or) lower area of the face. During the operation, sagging skin, jowls and fatty tissue are eliminated. The remaining skin is tightened and smoothed, restoring a more youthful and healthy appearance to the face. A lift of the middle and lower areas of the face can be performed simultaneously with a neck lift or chin surgery (if indicated).

If necessary, a circular facelift (SMAS) is performed, which solves all the above problems simultaneously, WITHOUT VISIBLE SCARS.

It may seem to you that the plastic surgery of male and female faces is not much different. However, it is not. Plastic surgeons know that facial plastic surgery in men has a lot of features. Dr. Kudinova knows how to perform an operation taking them into account.

Sharpening with threads

Women and men can sharpen their chin by using a popular procedure - thread lifting. With the help of a cosmetic procedure, you can additionally remove the double chin in the submandibular area, as well as tighten the sides if they are sagging, correcting the oval of the face. Additionally, you can strengthen the central part of the chin using circular threads.

Contraindications

Contraindications for the procedure are described in the following list:

infectious pathologies that are in an active form;
breastfeeding period and pregnancy;
problems with the respiratory system and cardiovascular system.

Preparation and surgery, rehabilitation

The thread implantation session can be divided into several stages, each of which is carried out separately and has a significant effect in the form of rejuvenation.

The classic method of rejuvenation with mesothreads has the following sequence:

Regeneration. Thin threads must be inserted under the skin through small atraumatic cannulas. Given the administration of local anesthesia during the procedure, the patient experiences almost no pain. At this stage, a strong 3D frame is created under the skin.
Lifting. In order for the formed frame to demonstrate the desired effect over a long period of time, it is necessary to introduce velor fabrics consisting of polydioxanone. This allows you to achieve a double chin lift. It is possible to ensure a strong fixation under the skin due to velor threads, which have a stable structure and versatile notches.
Volume restoration. Along with ptosis, pits and minor irregularities may appear in the area of the chin. To return the pointed shape, it is necessary to carry out contouring using hyaluronic acid fillers. An analogue can be regenerative lifting, which is carried out using the patient’s own fat tissue.

5-7 days before the procedure, the patient should stop drinking alcoholic beverages, Ibuprofen and Aspirin.

After the operation, it is forbidden to visit the sauna, bathhouse, solarium, actively engage in sports and influence the area of the threads by moving the neck in different directions. It is recommended to apply cold compresses, use absorbable ointment and treat the surface with an antiseptic.

Chin surgery for men

Chin surgery is another plastic surgery that is especially popular among men. It allows you to create a strong-willed chin, making your face more courageous and decisive. A small, inexpressive chin is unlikely to decorate a man. In addition, an underdeveloped chin protrusion of the lower jaw provokes an earlier appearance of the first signs of aging, such as a double chin and sagging cheeks (“jowls”). Specializing in the field of maxillofacial surgery and having more than fifteen years of experience, Dr. Ekaterina Sergeevna Kudinova is one of the few specialists in Russia in the field of chin plastic surgery (genioplasty, mentoplasty).

Responsible attitude, sensitivity and attention to detail allow us to call her a truly unique specialist who should be contacted by a man planning chin surgery.

BOTOX® and Dysport® injections

Wrinkles at the corners of the eyes (“crow’s feet”), deep wrinkles on the forehead and bridge of the nose, and other inevitable signs of age and stress can be permanently eliminated or “softened” with Botox or Dysport injections. This procedure is quite comfortable, since it is carried out under the influence of a special anesthetic cream and does not leave any traces. No rehabilitation required. After the injections, the patient can immediately return to work.

Botox or Dysport injections are also used to eliminate excessive sweating and unpleasant odor (treatment of hyperhidrosis). Just one procedure will relieve you of sweating for a whole year.

Contour plastic surgery and biorevitalization

Contouring using natural fillers (gels based on hyaluronic acid) is a non-surgical procedure that can reduce deep wrinkles. In addition, this technique is used for volumetric modeling of the face. You can increase the size of the chin bump, emphasize the cheekbones and add missing volume to the cheeks.

Using hyaluronic acid preparations of various densities, rejuvenating procedures are also carried out on individual areas of the face, which allow you to get rid of fine wrinkles and improve skin texture.

Contour plastic surgery does not require rehabilitation, leaves no marks and is very well tolerated by patients. However, with this procedure, the experience and precise hand of a professional are especially important.

proper makeup;
facial gymnastics;
chin contouring;
lipofilling;
lipolysis;
mentoplasty.

Massage

Other non-surgical procedures

Using non-surgical rejuvenation procedures is one of the easiest and fastest ways to give your face a healthier, more rested appearance. Non-surgical rejuvenation technologies for men include laser methods, plasma lifting, thread technologies and injections of vitamin preparations for the skin. These methods can solve a wide range of cosmetic problems, such as fine wrinkles, unhealthy (too red, or, on the contrary, gray) complexion, uneven skin texture, scars and post-acne. All these procedures give a quick effect, are easily tolerated by the patient and do not require long-term rehabilitation.

When performing rejuvenation procedures for men, Dr. Kudinova takes into account the characteristic features of male skin and uses care designed specifically for men.
