Do you ever see yourself in pictures and cringe when you see your double chin? Do you need an extra long arm to take a selfie in order to help minimize the appearance of your double chin?
Whether it’s genetic, or the result of a little extra weight, the double chin can be a source of insecurity for many people. Coolsculpting is a great option to permanently reduce submental fat without the use of needles or surgery. Coolsculpting is the world’s number one non-invasive fat reduction treatment that permanently eliminates 20-25% of the fat in the treated area. Many people can achieve a more defined jaw line and youthful appearance with the elimination of excess fat. Coolsculpting is capable of providing dramatic with a well-designed treatment plan.
At Solomon Facial Plastic we offer 3 options to permanently reduce the fat under the chin. Belkyra, Neck Liposuction and Coolsculpting are the most common procedures for the elimination of the double chin.
Many people who are treated with Belkyra will see a visible improvement in their profile in just 2-4 treatments. Some patients may require 6 treatments for optimal results. No downtime is required however post treatment swelling can last for up to 2 weeks. The timeline for visible results can vary depending on the treatment plan. On average, a patient undergoing 4treatments can expect to see optimal results 5-6 months following their first treatment.
Belkyra is the first and only Health Canada approved injectable treatment that targets and eliminates fat cells under the chin. The treatment itself can take just 15-20 minutes, however multiple treatments are typically required. At Solomon Facial Plastic, we will design a treatment plan for you so that you can achieve your desired goal.
Neck Liposuction is the gold standard for the permanent reduction of fat under the chin. Neck Liposuction however, is a surgical procedure that requires local anesthetic, downtime, incisions and potential scarring. Neck Liposuction can potentially eliminate 80% of the fat targeted and only one procedure is required. Patients undergoing neck liposuction will require one week of downtime and up to 3 months to see optimal results.
Coolsculpting has become one of the most popular non-invasive procedures at the SFP Medispa due to its ease, convenience, lack of downtime and of course, its results. Coolsculpting under the chin requires 45 minutes using the Coolsculpting cool-mini applicator with a minimum of 2 treatment cycles in one sitting. If needed, the area can be retreated 6 weeks later. Optimal results can be seen 12 weeks following your initial Coolsculpting treatment. Patients may experience some mild swelling and redness for up to 48 hours following their Coolsculpting treatment. Mild numbness under the chin can last for up to 2 weeks depending on the individual.
At Solomon Facial Plastic we make your Coolsculpting experience as comfortable as possible. Patients can have the luxury of browsing the Internet and sipping espresso as they are being treated.

Kathy Ellis2024-12-16 I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Solomon, and couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. From the first consultation, Dr. Solomon’s expertise and professionalism put me at ease. He guided me every step of the way, ensuring that I understood the process and felt comfortable. The outcome exceeded my expectations, as I now look like a fresher, younger version of myself. Dr. Solomon’s attention to detail and skill truly enhanced my natural beauty. I feel more confident and rejuvenated than ever. I must also recognize two of his amazing staff, Nurse Maddie and Nurse Nancy who were kind, attentive, responsive and always available when I reached out to them. Thank you Dr. Solomon, for giving me a renewed sense of self! Vanessa Gray2024-12-06 I am exactly one week out from my deep plane facelift surgery. I am healing so quickly and the results are already so amazing. Dr. Philip Solomon is not only a skilled surgeon but an artist. I travelled all the way from Vancouver and have no regrets. Thank you Dr. Solomon, Nancie, and the rest of your team! L J2024-12-06 Dr Solomon and his team have been exceptional. Ive always felt self conscious about the droopiness of my nose tip, but from the first consultation, Dr Solomon put me at ease with his excellent bedside manner and willingness to answer all my questions. After surgery, a nurse called me to check in, and my recovery process has been quite smooth. Now at 8 weeks post op I feel a newfound confidence every time I look in the mirror. Nancy has also been incredibly supportive, patiently answering questions and providing reassurance as I continue to navigate some post-op swelling (which is expected). Incredible experience and I’m so grateful to the entire team! Jen Muller2024-12-05 I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Solomon. A few years ago, I had rhinoseptoplasty for a deviated septum and a nostril that seemed to be collapsing. Since the surgery, I have been able to breathe much better. I then developed a cyst deep under the layers of my skin beside my nose. It took three years of meeting with various experts to try to figure out what was going on and how to remove it without scarring. Apparently this type of cyst is very rare. It took a long time, waiting for ultrasounds and CT scans. Dr. Solomon helped me through this entire process and was able to remove it from the inside of my nose without scarring. I cannot express enough of my appreciation for the removal of the cyst. It was causing a lot of issues for me with swelling that was unpredictable and distressing. It is a big decision to consider surgery and it’s important to research who you choose to work with, I would feel confident in your choice if you choose to work with Dr. Solomon. Susan Khamassi2024-12-03 I had rhinoplasty with Dr. Solomon. I was very nervous for years to do it because I wanted to still look natural. During my consult he listened to everything I wanted and now after 5 months post surgery I am beyond happy with the results. He is very skilled and would recommend him 1000 percent ! Thank you again ! R Karabassis2024-12-02 Dr. Solomon is great! Makes you feel comfortable and is also good with his aftercare and post procedure check ups. Results are amazing! Irene Karabassis2024-12-02 Dr. Solomon is amazing! He makes you feel comfortable and always addresses any of your concerns. Results are beautiful and natural! Anna Kayden2024-12-02 I’ve had two surgeries with Dr. Solomon and couldn’t be happier with the results. He’s an incredibly skilled and knowledgeable surgeon whose judgment I trust completely. Dr. Solomon provides honest, realistic feedback and never overpromises the degree of results, which I deeply appreciate. His clinical team is outstanding—they create a safe, welcoming environment every step of the way. I wouldn’t hesitate to return for future procedures if needed. Devina Dasilva2024-10-29 It was a blessing in disguise that your receptionists treated me so poorly which led me to go elsewhere. I Thank the Lord each day for not having Dr. Solomon touch my nose and perform surgery. My nose is in the utmost pristine condition and it's only because of the Lord. What a huge blessing to find an amazing surgeon elsewhere. A big Thank You to all the receptionists who were absolutely rude towards me. Had it not been for your ridiculous behaviour - I might have walked out with a botched nose job. Tina S2024-10-25 Dr. Solomon did a top notch job on my revision rhinoplasty. I am truly amazed at the results - they are even better than what I had hoped for. Even with the issues with my nose, he fixed the issues completely and made adjustments as-needed for a stunning result. And did it all "closed". Quite incredible. I'm still amazed. Prior to surgery (consultation phase), Dr. Solomon answered my many, many questions without hesitation - bc of my experience with a previous surgeon, I was quite nervous and asked many questions. He was very patient with me. The entire team was exceedingly professional - even his operative support team. 5 stars for them too. As a side note, I researched Toronto plastic surgeons for months before landing on Dr. Solomon. I've also since learned that he has an excellent reputation not just among patients, but within the medical community. I recommend Dr. Solomon wholeheartedly.
