Neck Wrinkle & Double Chin Thread Lifting
At Haru Clinic, we offer Elasticum Neck Wrinkle & Double Chin Thread Lifting for patients who would like to improve loose neck skin, a less-defined jawline, and the appearance of neck wrinkles.
This procedure is designed for individuals whose double chin or neck contour is caused primarily by skin laxity and downward sagging, rather than excess fat alone.
What Is Elasticum Neck Wrinkle & Double Chin Thread Lifting?
Elasticum is an elastic lifting material designed to provide support while allowing natural movement. Compared with conventional thread-lifting approaches, it may offer a natural-looking yet noticeable lifting effect for selected patients.
The treatment aims to:
- Improve sagging skin beneath the chin and along the neck
- Create a sharper, more defined jawline
- Reduce the appearance of a double chin caused by loose skin
- Improve the appearance of horizontal neck wrinkles
- Restore a firmer-looking neck contour
Procedure Approach and Recovery
The procedure is performed through a small incision, approximately 2 cm long, placed within the crease behind the ear. This location helps keep the incision discreet.
Because the approach is minimally invasive, many patients experience relatively limited swelling and bruising. Aside from temporary needle marks or mild post-procedure swelling, visible signs may be subtle. However, recovery time varies by individual, and our medical team will provide personalized aftercare instructions for international patients traveling after treatment.
Patient Case: Improving Neck Laxity and Jawline Definition
A woman in her mid-30s visited Haru Clinic with concerns about reduced skin elasticity around her neck. She felt that sagging skin was making her double chin more prominent, deepening the appearance of neck wrinkles, and contributing to a tired or older-looking facial impression.
While dissolvable thread lifting was also considered, she preferred a more substantial and longer-lasting lifting approach. Following an in-depth consultation, she chose Elasticum Double Chin Lifting.
One-Week Progress
At her one-week follow-up appointment for stitch removal, the patient showed visible improvement in the contour beneath the chin and along the jawline.
The previously loose neck skin appeared more lifted and firm, while the jawline looked slimmer and more defined. The patient also reported that her overall facial appearance looked sharper and more refreshed.
Temporary needle marks were still visible at this stage, but these generally fade gradually over time. Individual healing and results may vary.
Who May Be a Good Candidate?
Elasticum Neck Wrinkle & Double Chin Thread Lifting may be suitable for patients who have:
- Mild to moderate skin laxity in the neck area
- A double chin caused mainly by loose or sagging skin
- Reduced jawline definition
- Neck wrinkles associated with loss of skin elasticity
- A desire for a minimally invasive treatment with limited downtime
For patients with a larger amount of submental fat, neck or chin liposuction may be recommended in combination with lifting to achieve a more balanced contour. During consultation, our medical team evaluates skin elasticity, fat volume, facial structure, and individual aesthetic goals to recommend an appropriate treatment plan.
Personalized Care for International Patients
Every patient’s neck anatomy, skin quality, and desired result are different. At Haru Clinic, we provide individualized consultations to help medical tourists understand their treatment options, expected recovery process, and travel considerations following the procedure.
Please note that all cosmetic procedures involve potential risks, and outcomes vary from person to person. A thorough in-person consultation is essential to determine whether this procedure is appropriate for you.
