Non-surgical chin reductions
Southern Cosmetics was one of the first clinics in Australia to offer this safe, non-surgical solution for those looking to get rid of their “double chin” or submental fat. This is a fast and effective way of removing stubborn deposits of fat for a more contoured jawline and neck profile.
Comprised of a substance called Deoxycholic Acid, which is found in the body in bile acids and breaks down the fat in our diet, this product is administered by a series of small injections into the area below the chin. Once injected, it destroys the fat cells, and they never return!
Most women and men can be treated with impressive results. If you have a pocket of fat under your chin which can be “pinched” between the fingers, it can usually be treated. Results vary depending on the size of your submental fat (double chin) and how much loose skin is present.
After the treatment, there is some swelling which can last for a few days. Some patients also experience transient numbness and bruising in the treated area.
Recommended treatments: Two to three treatments, with results visible within six to eight weeks. The amount of product and the number of treatments required varies depending on the amount of fat, anatomy, and desired aesthetic outcome.

When will you notice a change after DermaPen Skin Needling?
You can expect some redness and swelling for the first 24 to 48 hours, and it’s normal for your skin to feel warm and tight. If scarring is being treated, localised superficial bruising may occur.A hydrating moisturiser or balm is recommended to aid the flaking of surface skin cells and lessen dry skin for five to seven days after the treatment.Results may vary from person to person, but typically, you’ll notice an improvement after the first treatment. Lasting and more significant results will occur after several sessions.
How many sessions are usually required?
We usually recommend a course of three to six treatments of DermaPen Skin Needling for optimal results. These are usually spaced four to six weeks apart.
