Neck laxity refers to the gradual loss of skin firmness beneath the chin and along the neck, while a double chin develops when excess fat accumulates in the submental area. Aging, genetics, weight fluctuations, and reduced collagen and elastin production can all contribute to these concerns. Together, they may soften jawline definition, create loose/crepey skin, and produce a heavier, less youthful neck profile.
At Aviva Med Spa, we create a personalized treatment plan to address the underlying causes of neck laxity and a double chin. Depending on your needs, we may use skin-tightening technologies and injectables to improve contours and restore a more sculpted appearance.

What is Facial Balancing?
At Aviva Med Spa, facial balancing is more than just a treatment—it’s a thoughtful, balanced approach designed to bring harmony to your features. Our expert injectors use precise filler placement to restore balance and enhance facial proportions, making this treatment an excellent option for those experiencing volume loss or asymmetry. Full facial balancing targets various points on the face from bottom to top. It may include filler injections in the forehead, temples, cheeks, lips, and chin, depending on your concerns and goals. By applying precise filler dosages across the entire face, our injectors can deliver a cohesive final appearance that aims to balance your unique features, rather than alter your appearance.
Signs & Symptoms of Neck Laxity/Double Chin:
- Loose or sagging skin beneath the chin and along the neck
- Excess fullness or fat creating the appearance of a double chin
- Reduced jawline definition and facial contour
- Crepey, thin, or wrinkled neck skin
- Hanging skin or jowls extending into the upper neck
- A heavier or less balanced side profile
- Loss of skin firmness and elasticity with age
- Neck bands becoming more noticeable
- Persistent fullness under the chin despite a healthy lifestyle
- An older or tired-looking lower face and neck
Your Treatment Options for Neck Laxity/Double Chin at Aviva
Attiva RF
Attiva RF delivers radiofrequency energy beneath the skin via a specialized probe to create controlled thermal stimulation in the connective tissue. This process contracts existing collagen fibers while activating fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin over time. The result is firmer neck skin, improved definition, and a smoother transition beneath the chin.
EMFACE®
EMFACE uses synchronized radiofrequency and high-intensity facial electrical stimulation (HIFES™) to target the muscles and soft tissues supporting the lower face and jawline. RF promotes collagen remodeling, while HIFES strengthens underlying muscles. Together, these effects can enhance jawline definition and create a more lifted neck profile.
Sculptra®
Sculptra is an injectable collagen biostimulator containing poly-L-lactic acid microparticles. After treatment, these particles stimulate fibroblasts to produce collagen, improving skin thickness and structural support over several months. This progressive collagen remodeling helps tighten mild neck laxity while restoring smoother, firmer contours beneath the jawline.
Plasma Injections (PRF)
PRF injections use a concentrated portion of your own blood containing platelets, fibrin, and growth factors. Once injected into targeted areas, these biologically active proteins encourage tissue repair, collagen production, and improved skin quality. PRF helps strengthen thinning neck skin, improving firmness and texture with gradual, natural-looking rejuvenation.
Dermal Fillers
Strategically placed dermal fillers can enhance the chin and jawline, improving the appearance of neck contours. Hyaluronic acid attracts water and restores structural support beneath the skin, improving facial proportions and reducing the visual prominence of a double chin. This approach is especially effective when poor definition contributes to the concern.
Aviva Med Spa Restores the Triangle of Youth with Facial Balancing
Facial balancing is all about restoring harmony, and it starts with understanding how facial volume shifts over time. In youth, our facial structure resembles an inverted triangle: volume is concentrated in the upper face, with lifted cheeks, full temples, and a defined jawline. But as we age, that triangle slowly flips. Volume loss in the midface and temples, combined with gravity, causes the lower face to appear heavier. Jowls become more prominent, and facial contours soften.
Through strategic facial balancing with dermal fillers and biostimulators like Sculptra®, we can subtly reverse this shift. By restoring volume to key areas such as the cheeks, temples, and lateral face, we create a natural-looking lift that improves overall facial symmetry and makes the lower face appear slimmer, without surgery.
This approach isn’t about overfilling or changing your appearance. It’s about using small, intentional enhancements to support your natural bone structure and bring back youthful definition.

Understanding the Differences Between HA Fillers & Sculptra Fillers for Facial Balancing
How They Work: HA is a substance naturally found in the body that attracts and holds moisture. Injected fillers instantly add volume and smoothness where needed.
Results: Immediate, visible improvements that can be fine-tuned during treatment.
Best For: Patients seeking quick, noticeable enhancements to lips, cheeks, under-eyes, or jawline symmetry.
Longevity: Typically lasts 6–18 months, depending on the area treated and the type of filler used.
Reversibility: Can be dissolved if adjustments are needed.
How It Works: Sculptra is made from poly-L-lactic acid, a biostimulatory substance that gradually stimulates collagen production in the skin.
Results: Subtle, natural changes that appear over several weeks as new collagen forms and builds.
Best For: Patients looking for gradual, long-lasting restoration of facial structure, especially in areas with significant volume loss.
Longevity: Results can last up to 2 years or more, with a series of treatments recommended for best outcomes.
Reversibility: Cannot be dissolved, as results come from your body’s own collagen production.
For those who want instant results with the flexibility to adjust, HA fillers are often the go-to option. If your goal is long-term collagen stimulation and gradual rejuvenation, Sculptra may be the better choice. In many cases, a combination approach delivers the most balanced, natural-looking results.
