If you're looking into fat freezing for a double chin, here's the direct answer: yes, cryolipolysis can reduce stubborn fat under the chin for some people, gradually, over several weeks, but it is not instant, not guaranteed, and not painless. In Amsterdam of Utrecht, a single chin fat-freezing session at Lana Skyn costs €149, or €99 per session when booked as a 3-session package (€297 total), with at least 6 weeks between sessions on the same area.

If you've just come back to Amsterdam with a suntan and you're eyeing a chemical peel or microneedling session to deal with sun spots or dull, uneven skin, wait. Getting either treatment too soon on tanned or sun-exposed skin is one of the most common late-summer skin mistakes, and it can trigger exactly the kind of pigmentation problem you were trying to fix.

most coloured tattoos can be significantly faded or removed with laser treatment, but not all colours respond equally, black and dark blue clear fastest, red and orange respond well, greens and light blues are more stubborn, and true white or very pale pastel ink generally cannot be removed by laser at all.
