Many people feel frustrated by a double chin, a soft jawline, or fullness beneath the neck that remains despite dieting and exercise. While weight loss can reduce overall body fat, it often fails to eliminate stubborn fat deposits beneath the chin and along the upper neck.
NovoChin™ by NovoSculpt™ takes a different approach. Rather than attempting to shrink fat cells gradually, NovoChin™ physically removes unwanted fat from the chin, jawline, and upper neck while simultaneously addressing skin laxity through NovoTight™ skin tightening technology.
The result is a more refined neck contour, a sharper jawline, and a more youthful profile—without general anesthesia and with minimal downtime.
What Is NovoChin™?
NovoChin™ is a minimally invasive facial contouring procedure designed to improve:
- Double chin fullness
- Submental fat (fat beneath the chin)
- Jawline definition
- Upper neck contour
- Early neck laxity
- Sagging skin beneath the jawline
The procedure combines:
- Precision fat removal
- Jawline sculpting
- Upper neck contouring
- NovoTight™ plasma skin tightening
Together, these treatments create a more elegant transition between the chin, jawline, and neck.
Understanding Double Chin Fat
The area beneath the chin is known anatomically as the submental region.
Submental fullness can result from:
- Genetics
- Aging
- Weight gain
- Hormonal changes
- Loss of skin elasticity
Many patients discover that even after significant weight loss, the neck and jawline continue to appear full.
This occurs because localized fat deposits often remain resistant to diet and exercise.
Research and clinical experience have shown that targeted fat removal can effectively address these stubborn fat deposits when lifestyle changes alone are insufficient.
What Areas Does NovoChin™ Treat?
NovoChin™ focuses on several anatomical zones:
Submental Fat Pad
The pocket of fat directly beneath the chin that creates the appearance of a double chin.
Jawline Border
Fat accumulation along the lower face can soften jawline definition and blur facial contours.
Upper Neck
Excess fat beneath the jaw can create a heavier neck appearance and reduce the cervicomental angle—the natural angle between the chin and neck.
Mild Jowling
Select patients may benefit from contouring near the jawline to improve facial definition.
Watch: How Fat Removal Can Refine the Chin and Jawline
Many people do not realize that stubborn fat beneath the chin can often be treated directly.
In this short video, NovoSculpt™ explains how targeted fat removal can sculpt difficult areas of the body, including the chin and jawline.
“Common areas include the abdomen, flanks, arms, thighs, chin, bra roll, and even knees.”
How NovoChin™ Differs From Traditional Chin Liposuction
When patients search online, they often encounter terms such as:
- Chin Liposuction
- Neck Liposuction
- Jawline Liposuction
- Submental Liposuction
- Double Chin Surgery
Traditional liposuction frequently involves:
- Scalpel incisions
- General anesthesia
- Operating room recovery
- Longer downtime
NovoChin™ follows a different philosophy.
Traditional Liposuction
- Often performed under general anesthesia
- Surgical incisions
- Longer recovery
- Greater procedural complexity
NovoChin™
- No general anesthesia
- No scalpels
- No stitches
- Awake procedure
- Minimal downtime
- Precision contouring
The tumescent technique allows large areas of fat to be treated under local anesthesia while reducing blood loss and minimizing discomfort. Studies have shown that local anesthesia can remain active for up to 24 hours following treatment, reducing postoperative pain and accelerating recovery.
Why We Use Tumescent Local Anesthesia
NovoChin™ utilizes tumescent local anesthesia.
This technique involves introducing a specially formulated anesthetic solution into the targeted fatty layer before contouring begins.
Benefits include:
- Improved patient comfort
- Reduced bleeding
- Reduced bruising
- Enhanced precision
- Elimination of general anesthesia
Multiple studies have demonstrated that tumescent anesthesia significantly reduces blood loss while allowing fat removal procedures to be performed safely under local anesthesia.
What Is NovoTight™?
Removing unwanted fat solves only part of the problem.
Many patients also have loose or aging skin beneath the chin.
NovoTight™ uses controlled plasma energy to stimulate collagen remodeling and skin contraction.
This additional tightening helps:
- Improve neck definition
- Reduce mild skin laxity
- Sharpen jawline contours
- Enhance overall facial harmony
The combination of fat removal and skin tightening often produces more comprehensive results than either treatment alone.
NovoChin™ vs Kybella®
Many patients searching for double chin treatment compare liposuction and Kybella®.
Kybella® works by injecting deoxycholic acid into fat deposits beneath the chin.
While Kybella® can be effective for some patients, treatment commonly requires multiple sessions and results may take months to fully develop.
Several aesthetic surgeons have noted that liposuction often produces more immediate and predictable improvements compared with injectable fat-dissolving treatments.
Patients seeking a one-time treatment often prefer direct fat removal rather than undergoing multiple rounds of injections.
NovoChin™ vs CoolSculpting®
CoolSculpting® attempts to freeze fat cells so the body can eliminate them gradually.
The challenge is that results depend on the body’s natural ability to clear the treated cells over time.
Direct fat removal physically removes unwanted fat immediately.
For patients seeking more visible contouring, many practitioners consider direct fat removal to be a more predictable approach than fat freezing.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
You may be a good candidate if you:
- Have a double chin
- Have fullness beneath the jawline
- Want a more defined profile
- Have mild to moderate neck laxity
- Are near your goal weight
- Prefer to avoid general anesthesia
The best candidates typically have localized submental fat and reasonable skin elasticity.
Recovery After NovoChin™
Most patients are surprised by how quickly they return to normal activities.
Patients commonly experience:
- Mild swelling
- Temporary tenderness
- Bruising
- Compression garment use
Many patients return to work within a few days.
Because local anesthesia remains active for many hours after treatment, postoperative discomfort is often manageable and recovery is generally faster than traditional surgical approaches.

Patients choose NovoSculpt™ because our philosophy centers around three principles:
Effective
We physically remove unwanted fat rather than relying solely on fat shrinkage.
Safe
We avoid general anesthesia whenever appropriate and perform procedures in a QuadA-accredited surgical environment.
