Please note: In line with TGA regulations, we cannot provide detailed treatment information online; a consultation with a practitioner is required to assess your skin, discuss options and pricing, and create a personalised treatment plan specifically for you.

In accordance with Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) regulations, we are unable to provide detailed information about specific treatments online. Such information may be misinterpreted as the promotion of prescription-only (Schedule 4) medications – this is not permitted under TGA guidelines.

For this reason, a consultation with one of our practitioners is required. During your comprehensive consultation, your practitioner will carefully assess your skin, discuss your concerns, and provide education around suitable treatment options. A personalised treatment plan will then be created to address your individual needs.

Treatment costs will vary depending on your tailored plan and will be discussed with you in detail during your consultation. 

At Youth Lab, we offer consultations for under-chin contouring, a non-surgical treatment that may assist in improving definition and reducing small, localised areas of fat, particularly beneath the chin.

The area beneath the chin, often referred to as the submental region, can vary in appearance due to factors such as genetics, anatomy, skin quality, and age-related changes. In some individuals, fullness in this area may persist regardless of lifestyle factors such as diet or exercise.

Under-chin contouring consultations focus on assessing the characteristics of this area and discussing medical options that may be suitable for managing these concerns. Any treatment plan is developed following a thorough assessment and discussion of individual goals and expectations.


Understanding the Under-Chin Area

The appearance of the area beneath the chin can be influenced by several factors:

  • Fat distribution: Some individuals naturally carry more fat in the submental area.
  • Bone structure: Chin projection and jawline structure can influence how fullness beneath the chin is perceived.
  • Skin quality: Changes in skin elasticity over time can affect definition in the lower face and neck.

During consultation, your practitioner will consider these factors to determine whether under-chin contouring may be appropriate to discuss further.

Alternative and Complementary Options

Depending on your individual assessment, your practitioner may also discuss other non-surgical options that could be considered as part of a broader treatment plan, such as:

  • Treatments that support skin quality or firmness in the lower face and neck

  • Energy-based technologies that may assist with skin tightening

  • Consultation regarding jawline or chin treatments that may influence overall facial proportions

  • Professional skincare and lifestyle guidance to support skin health

The suitability of any option will be discussed during your consultation.

FAQs

What does the treatment involve?

Prior to any treatment, a full consultation is required. This will include full clinical photography, skin assessment and review with the doctor or nurse to assess your areas of concern, expectations and suitability. If treatment proceeds, it is performed in a clinical setting using sterile, single-use equipment. Only medical professionals can perform this procedure.
Multiple sessions may be recommended depending on individual circumstances.

How long do results last?

Some people notice gradual changes over a period of weeks to months as the treated area settles. Outcomes vary between individuals, and more than one treatment session may be recommended. Longevity also differs depending on factors such as overall health, lifestyle, and whether future weight changes.

What happens after my treatment?

Temporary effects such as swelling, redness, firmness, or altered sensation beneath the chin may occur.

These effects can persist for several days or, in some cases, several weeks.

Recovery time varies between individuals. Full aftercare instructions will be provided following treatment.

What are the risks of treatment?

All medical procedures carry potential risks. Common temporary effects may include swelling, redness, tenderness, numbness, or firmness in the treated area.

Less common risks may include infection, ulceration, temporary changes in sensation or muscle movement, or nerve irritation. Your practitioner will discuss all risks, contraindications, and alternatives during consultation.

This treatment is not suitable for individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have active infection, bleeding disorders, or certain medical conditions.

What are the costs?

In line with TGA guidelines, we are not able to advertise the price of our under chin contouring treatments. Upon consultation, our practitioners will be able to discuss pricing based on your individualised treatment plan.
