Double Chin
A double chin, medically known as submental fat, is a common condition characterized by the accumulation of fat beneath the chin, resulting in the appearance of a second chin.
What causes of Double Chin?
Several factors can contribute to the development of a double chin, including:
Weight gain: Excess body weight can lead to fat accumulation in various areas of the body, including under the chin.
Genetics: Some people are genetically predisposed to store fat under their chin, making them more susceptible to developing a double chin even at a relatively lower body weight.
Aging: As a person ages, their skin may lose elasticity, and the muscles in the chin and neck area may weaken, which can contribute to the appearance of a double chin.
Posture: Poor posture can lead to the weakening of neck muscles and contribute to the development of a double chin over time.
Diet and lifestyle: Unhealthy eating habits, such as a diet high in calories and low in nutrients, as well as a sedentary lifestyle, can contribute to weight gain and the accumulation of fat under the chin.
