The Neckline Slimmer is a product which claims to be helpful in reducing a double chin. Here, we try to tell you whether this product really works.
Applying warm cocoa butter twice a day over the chin area can help reduce a double chin. Applying wheat germ oil and leaving it overnight, is also an option.
Double chin is a common problem with many obese people. The skin in the chin area loosens and sags due to old age too. When the facial muscles lose their elasticity and tone, a double chin may develop. Losing body weight, toning the facial muscles, and in certain cases, a surgery, are some of the ways to get rid of a double chin. While weight loss with exercise takes time, surgeries have risks and side effects.
Considering this, Paul Younane, a renowned physiotherapist, has introduced a product called ‘Neckline Slimmer’. It claims to be able to help you get rid of a double chin in 2 weeks. This BeautiSecrets article tells you more about the claims made by this product, and whether it works or not.
Working Mechanism
The Neckline Slimmer helps in toning the muscles at the neckline. Television advertisements say that this instrument is to be held perpendicular to the chin. Then it is given motion in an up and down direction with some resistance. It comes with three detachable coils. These are marked as ‘1’, ‘2’, and ‘3’. As you begin toning and massaging the chin muscles with this tool, you are required to start with the coil marked ‘1’ and complete 10 repetitions with each coil. As you move from ‘1’ to ‘2’ and then ‘3’, the muscles are exercised deeper and better.
Claims
Marketers claim that this product gives the users, a firmer neckline and a considerable reduction in wrinkles and fine lines (in the chin area). It is said that the product does not lead to any pain and is cost-effective. The product claims to make a double chin disappear completely, if it is used daily for a couple of minutes, for a time span of 2 weeks.
Mixed Responses
☞ If reviews and the ‘before’ and ‘after’ pictures of people using the Neckline Slimmer are to be believed, the product can be said to be extremely beneficial for spot reduction. People writing about having used this product have said that it does act on a double chin, and that too within just two weeks. However, some users have said that the time taken for the effects to show is more than two weeks.
☞ According to some consumers, the results weren’t as striking. Some users have even gone on to say that the product does not serve any purpose and that the claims it makes are false.
Complaints
☞ Some users have complained about extreme neck pain after using the Neckline Slimmer.
☞ As stated by medical practitioners, using this product can lead to jaw misalignment in those with temporomandibular joint disorder.
☞ Some have said that they were charged extra for the product. Some have said that their complaints weren’t addressed by the sales team.
☞ When you buy the product, you get an additional jaw-firming cream, which is said to be free of cost. But the shipping charges of the cream sum up to $8.
Thus, we can say that there is no conclusive evidence to prove if the Neckline Slimmer works or not. There are some who have benefited from its use, while there are others who have not found this product helpful. Whether to use it or not is for you to decide. But it is advisable to consult a health expert before choosing to use products like these.
