Let’s admit it, even the most body positive person would get the creeps staring at the reflection of that extra layer of fat beneath the chin, and would try to google up creams and lotions to get rid of it. The sight of double chin staring back at you in the mirror is probably one of the most frustrating things ever because it tends to add years to your age and make you appear heavier than you already are. Though loss of collagen, hereditary reasons, ageing, and other factors can lead to development of double chin; it’s mostly because of weight gain!
