In some people, it can be genetic. Though there are surgical treatments for double chin, they can be very expensive. Instead exercises and home remedies are the best resort. That does not mean that we start feeling insecure because even this has a cure and can make you feel more satisfied and confident with yourself!
Exercise - A simple, yet effective exercise involves gently turning your head clockwise and then anti-clockwise while keeping your spine straight all along. Repeat this exercise 5–10 times thrice a day for a few weeks until you notice a difference.
Another method - Keeping your spine erect, slowly tilt your head as far back as you can. Stare at the ceiling, pucker up your lips into a pout and retain this position for 5 counts and then release. Repeat this exercise 5–10 times and continue every day for a few weeks.
Wheat Germ Oil - Regular massage of the neck and double chin area using wheat germ oil is an effective way to get rid of a double chin. Wheat germ oil contains vitamin E that nourishes and helps tighten the skin. Before you go to bed, rub some wheat germ oil gently around the chin area. Gently massage in an upward motion from the bottom of the neck to the tip of the chin for 15 minutes.
Chewing Gum - Keeping the facial muscles toned and exercising the muscles around the jaw can help to get rid of a double chin.
Green Tea - Green tea helps you get rid of water retention that could be the cause of your double chin. Caffeine actually prevents water retention because of its diuretic properties. Even if your double chin is because of excessive weight, green tea is still effective as it can also help shed this extra fat by boosting your metabolism. Green tea contains comparatively low levels of caffeine but has high levels of the amino acid L-theanine, both of which can help in weight loss and double chin reduction.
Melons - Melons contain up to 95 per cent of water, which soothes the skin. They are rich in vitamins, proteins, phosphorus, and calcium. Its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-aging properties prevent skin sagging. Vitamin A present in melons prevent the formation of free radicals and keeps the skin looking young. Its vitamin B is also a perfect skin toner and makes the skin supple.
- Make a bowl of melon juice using a blender.
- Apply the melon juice evenly to the double chin using a cotton pad.
- Allow this to stay on the double chin about 20 minutes and rinse with water.
