Is Cryo Facial Therapy Using Glypto Technology Right for a Double Chin?
By The Body Sculpt LA | October 5, 2026
Serving Burbank, CA, including Magnolia Park and the West Verdugo area.
I hear this a lot in Burbank: you’re happy with your face, then photos hit and that little pocket under the chin shows up. And I’ll be straight with you. Cryotherapy using Glypto Technology (Face, Chin, or Neck Area) can help reduce a small, pinchable double chin with minimal downtime, but it works best when the issue is localized fat, not loose, sagging skin. One of the things clients mention most is how straightforward and comfortable I keep the process, and that matters when you’re treating a sensitive area like the neck and chin.
Why a double chin doesn’t always mean “weight gain”
A double chin, the submental area under the chin, can show up for a few common reasons:
- You carry a small pocket of fat there, even if you’re otherwise lean.
- Your genetics put fullness under the chin first.
- Skin elasticity changes over time, and the area looks softer even without much fat.
- Posture and angles can make it look more noticeable on camera.
If you’re commuting, working studio days, juggling early calls, or doing auditions and headshots around Magnolia Park or the West Verdugo area, you usually don’t want anything that takes you out for days. That’s where an in-office option with low downtime can make sense. It’s a short appointment and, for many people, it fits into real life without throwing off your week.
How Glypto cryotherapy targets the chin area (and what changes are realistic)
Glypto-style cryotherapy is a cold-based approach, often called cryo or cryolipolysis. In plain language, I’m using controlled cooling on the face, chin, or neck area to target concerns like stubborn fullness under the chin and a softer jawline. Cold temperatures can help the body break down fat cells in the treated area over time, and the skin can also respond with a firmer look as circulation and collagen activity are stimulated.
Here’s the part people appreciate hearing up front. If the “double chin” is mostly pinchable fat, Glypto cryotherapy can be a strong fit. If it’s mostly loose skin, the change can be limited, and I’ll tell you that during your consult. Some people do best with a combination plan, like pairing cryo with skin-tightening services or other aesthetics options for jawline definition.
Timeline I want you to plan for: Many people need 1 to 3 short sessions spaced weeks apart. Visible changes often show up over 4 to 12 weeks as the body clears treated fat.
Comfort and downtime tend to be very manageable. You can usually go right back to your day, which is helpful in Burbank when life moves fast. You might notice temporary numbness, tenderness, or mild swelling in the area. That’s normal for cold-based work on the chin and neck.
“Every single person on staff was so welcoming and knowledgeable. I loved my results and got compliments from friends who had no idea I had any procedure.”

People also ask how this compares to options like Kybella, CoolSculpting, or lipo. I think of Glypto cryotherapy as a non-surgical alternative when you want a focused improvement without the commitment of a procedure. It’s not the right match for everyone. That’s why I start with a quick, honest assessment instead of pushing sessions you don’t need.
Is Glypto cryotherapy a good fit for your chin, or should we talk other options?
You’re usually a great fit for Cryotherapy using Glypto Technology (Face, Chin, or Neck Area) if you can pinch a small pocket under your chin and your skin still has decent snap-back. This is also a nice option if you want results that don’t scream “I did something, ” especially if you’re heading into headshots, auditions, or on-camera work around Burbank.
I’ll often recommend a different plan if your main concern is significant skin laxity or a larger-volume area. In those cases, we may talk about pairing cryo with skin-tightening or exploring other aesthetics options that better match what you’re seeing in the mirror.
Quick safety note: I don’t treat if you’re pregnant, have cold-sensitivity disorders, or you’ve got an active infection at the site. Let me know your medical history during your consult so I can keep this safe and appropriate for you.
Why people in Magnolia Park trust me with face and neck work
I’ve been doing this work in Burbank for 14 years, and I don’t rush the part that actually affects your results: the consult, the plan, and making sure you’re comfortable. People regularly tell me the studio is clean, the team is welcoming, and that I explain every step so nothing feels confusing or salesy.
“I have tried several other places in Burbank, without any success. I decided to give The Body Sculpt LA a chance. I could not be happier with the results and the friendly service and caring attitude of Maggie.”

And yes, convenience matters. A lot of my clients come in from Glendale, North Hollywood, Toluca Lake, Studio City, Sun Valley, and Valley Glen because we’re close to I-5 and Burbank Airport. Burbank’s warm, dry weather also makes it easier to keep life moving after a quick in-office session, and cooler fall months can feel especially comfortable for recovery.
Want to start with a simple plan? I’ll look at the chin area with you, talk through what you’re seeing, and tell you honestly if Glypto cryotherapy is the right move or if you’ll get a better payoff combining services.

Quick FAQs about Glypto cryotherapy for chin and neck
Is Cryotherapy using Glypto Technology (Face, Chin, or Neck Area) safe for the skin on my neck and chin?
When I screen you properly and use controlled cooling on the correct areas, it’s generally well tolerated. Cryo therapy uses cold temperatures to reduce fat, tighten skin, and rejuvenate targeted areas by stimulating circulation and metabolism. I’ll also go over your health history first, and I won’t treat if you’re pregnant, have cold-sensitivity disorders, or you have an active infection at the site.
How many Glypto cryotherapy sessions will I need to see my double chin improve?
Most people do best with 1 to 3 sessions, spaced weeks apart. Changes often show up gradually over 4 to 12 weeks as the body clears treated fat. If I think you’ll need more than that, or if another approach makes more sense, I’ll tell you in the consult.
Will Glypto cryotherapy remove my double chin faster than Kybella or CoolSculpting?
“Faster” depends on your body and what you’re treating. Glypto cryotherapy is a non-surgical option with low downtime, and many people like that it fits into a busy schedule. Kybella and CoolSculpting can also work, but they’re different tools with different timelines and side effects. I’ll help you choose based on what you can pinch, how your skin looks, and how quickly you need to be camera-ready.
Can I go back to work or a studio shift the same day after a Glypto chin session?
Usually, yes. This is an in-office service with minimal downtime, so most people return to work the same day. You might feel temporary numbness, tenderness, or mild swelling, so I’ll tell you what’s normal and what to watch for before you leave.
How should I prepare for Cryotherapy using Glypto Technology (Face, Chin, or Neck Area)?
Come in with clean skin around the chin and neck area if you can, and let me know about any recent procedures, skin irritation, or health changes. The biggest “prep” is the consult. I’ll check the area, confirm you’re a good candidate, and map out a realistic plan that matches your timeline.
Price note: Cryotherapy using Glypto Technology (Face, Chin, or Neck Area) is $199. If you’re trying to plan sessions around work, school runs, or studio time, I’ll help you space them out in a way that makes sense.
