Before and after your appointment

Dr Azoo goes through this with you at your consultation. These points are a reminder, and he will adjust them to you.

Before your appointment

  • Tell Dr Azoo about your medicines, allergies, and whether you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or unwell.
  • Avoid alcohol for 24 hours beforehand.
  • Do not take aspirin or ibuprofen unless a doctor has prescribed it for you. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.
  • Plan a few quiet days afterwards. Swelling under the chin is expected.
  • Eat and drink as usual before you come.

Aftercare

  • Swelling, tenderness and some numbness for several days are normal.
  • Sleep with your head slightly raised while the swelling is there.
  • Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours, and saunas until the swelling has settled.
  • Most people need two to four sessions, at least a month apart.
  • Contact the clinic promptly if pain is increasing, the skin changes colour, or anything worries you.

Common questions

Is it suitable for everyone?

No. It is prescription-only and depends on your medical history and the amount of fat, which Dr Azoo assesses in person.

How many sessions?

Usually two to four, spaced at least a month apart.

What is the downtime?

Noticeable swelling for several days after each session is normal.

About double chin treatment at Dr Azoo

Fullness under the chin is common and often resists diet and exercise. This prescription injectable treatment breaks down fat cells in the area, giving a leaner profile over a course of sessions.

Because it is a prescription medicine, treatment always starts with a face-to-face consultation with Dr Azoo.
