Non-surgical methods of getting rid of the second chin

Choosing the best procedure from the second chin, you need to choose a doctor: cosmetologist, plastic surgeon. A full consultation is necessary, justification of the advantages and disadvantages of each method in this or that case. Most often, the choice of procedure is based on what kind of spruce is to be achieved.

Taping

The procedure of chin taping is an alternative to lifting using various surgical techniques. The essence of the procedure is that special tightening tapes, or tapes, are applied to the face. They resemble a tightening patch. There is a special scheme and technology of their application.

The process of taping can be done as follows:

1. Clean and prepare the skin of the chin to remove oil and dirt to ensure better adhesion of the medical tape.
2. Use a special medical tape, which is usually elastic and adheres well to the skin.
3. Apply the chin tape so that it provides additional support and weight to the skin in the area of the second chin. It is important to ensure that the tape is tight enough against the skin but does not cause discomfort or restriction of movement.
4. Make sure the tape is securely attached to the skin and does not slip or fold during movement.
5. Depending on individual preferences and needs, taping can be temporary or performed regularly over a period of time.

The lifting effect is achieved due to the fact that tapes have three main effects: lymphatic drainage, myofascial, lifting. Thus, due to the lymphatic drainage effect, blood and lymph circulation is significantly improved, hemostasis indicators are improved, lymph stagnation is eliminated, and, consequently, tissue edema is eliminated. Myofascial action is aimed at strengthening and tightening the weakened muscles of the face and chin. Lifting function implies tightening of the skin, subcutaneous structures. In more severe cases, with a pronounced second chin, it is necessary to use the kinesiotape procedure.

It is important to remember that taping can be a temporary solution and is not a treatment for a second chin. Before using taping or other methods, it is recommended that you consult a qualified professional for guidance and advice on the appropriate approach.

Bandage and bandage for the second chin

A bandage and dressing can be used for the second chin. This is a great alternative to surgical techniques and a great complement to traditional chin removal methods such as exercise, massage, masks and compresses.

There are different types of bandages and dressings. The mechanism of their action is to tighten the skin, strengthen muscles, activate blood circulation, improve nutritional processes, oxygenate the blood. An elastic bandage, compression bandage, elastic mask are used. They are attached differently (according to the instruction), but perform approximately the same functions. Due to moderate pressure on the muscles, they improve blood circulation, nutrition, normalize metabolic processes, increase the rate of lipolysis. All this contributes to the fact that the skin and muscles become even and smooth, tightened. Bandages and masks have special cutouts for eyes, mouth, nose and ears. They are worn for a certain period of time.

A face bandage is used. There are three main types of bandages: rubber, breathable, cooling. As a rule, the rubber bandage has the most intensive effect, however, it can have side effects. The skin may not receive enough oxygen, may experience excessive pressure. A breathable bandage is created from a fabric that allows oxygen to pass through easily. Thanks to this, the skin easily gets access to oxygen, it intensifies the processes of metabolism, lipolysis. Cooling bandage due to compression and moderate pressure has a cooling effect on the face and chin. Intensively tightens the skin, makes the muscles more elastic. A tightening belt is also used, which allows you to tighten the skin of the face, chin, cheeks. In general, there are practically no contraindications to the use of bandages and bandages. But it can not be put on with excess body weight, when the face is round, swollen, cheeks are large. You should not wear a bandage if there are lesions and irritations in the chin area, if there are growths and moles in this area, which can be damaged mechanically.
