Are you looking for a solution to rejuvenate your neck and smooth out those pesky platysma bands (also commonly referred to as ‘tech neck’)? Botox offers an effective and minimally invasive treatment to restore a youthful appearance to your neck. At Neu Look Med Spa & Skin Center in San Diego, we specialize in personalized Botox treatments designed to give you the best results.
What Are Platysma Bands?
The platysma is a series of vertical muscles extending from the jawline to the collarbones. When these muscles contract, they create noticeable “bands” that can result in wrinkles across the neck, both vertically and horizontally. Additionally, the platysma can pull down on facial tissues, worsening the appearance of jowls. As we age, the loss of collagen and subcutaneous fat makes these bands more prominent.
Just as we address aging concerns in the face, it’s essential to care for the neck. Our expert providers at Neu Look are trained to identify and effectively treat platysma bands using Botox, helping you achieve a smoother, more youthful neckline.
How Do We Use Botox to Treat Platysma Bands?
Botox is FDA-approved for the treatment of platysma bands. The platysma is a superficial muscle that lies just beneath the skin of the neck. At Neu Look, our providers inject Botox precisely into the bands formed by the muscle to relax them, ensuring the surrounding muscles and structures remain unaffected. With a deep understanding of anatomy and Botox’s properties, we deliver safe and effective results tailored to your unique needs.
What to Expect at Your Botox Visit
Before starting your treatment, our skilled Neu Look medical providers will perform a comprehensive assessment of your facial and neck anatomy. This includes evaluating your face and neck both at rest and during expression to create a customized treatment plan.
If you’re a good candidate for Botox treatment of platysma bands, the procedure will involve multiple injection points to relax the platysma muscles. Over time, this softens the appearance of the bands and, in some cases, alleviates the downward pull contributing to jowls.
We’ll schedule a follow-up visit 10–14 days after the treatment to evaluate your results and ensure your satisfaction. Typically, Botox treatments for platysma bands last up to four months, providing a lasting improvement in the appearance of your neck.
