Figure 1. — Impact of submental fat (SMF) on feelings/emotional well-being based on SMF severity. (A) The proportion of respondents who felt that they have a double chin, that others notice the area underneath their chin, and that they are embarrassed and bothered by this area increased among respondents with greater amounts of SMF. (B) The proportion of respondents who felt that the area underneath their chin negatively affects their appearance, makes them look older, makes them look overweight, and does not match the rest of their body also increased among respondents with greater amounts of SMF. Numbers at the base of each column denote SMF grades with significant differences (p < .05).
