If you have the dreaded double-chin syndrome, we have some news that’s about to make you VERY, VERY happy.
Double chins could be a thing of the past with a new ‘fatburner’ injection, which will melt fat cells beneath the skin using a chemical known as ATX- 101.

According to a statement from the drug company, both doses of the drug were seen to "significantly reduce" the amount of excess fat under the chin.
