With loose skin (and all skin), you want to make sure you’re hot on skincare. Use hyaluronic acid to rehydrate while building collagen with topical vitamin A and vitamin C.
Alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) such as lactic acid will help in every double chin scenario. The lower jaw and chin area is one of the few that ages upwards instead of downwards. As we get older the muscles of the chin get stronger and tighter, which results in the tip of your chin pulling upwards so the tissues under the chin become more visible — and a double chin becomes more prominent.
Hyaluronic-based dermal fillers injected by a medical professional are ideal to redefine the area because they help to reshape it, pull it back downwards
