In facial aesthetics, there is an area as important as the face itself: the neck. With advancing age, the harmful effects of the sun, genetic factors, and a decrease in skin elasticity, vertical lines known as platysmal bands and sagging occur on the neck. This condition gives a person an older and more tired expression than they are.
Platysmal Band Botox, one of the modern aesthetic applications, is an effective method that reduces these lines in the neck area, providing a tighter, smoother, and younger appearance.
As “Gül Aydın Beauty,” we offer our clients natural and aesthetic solutions in platysmal band botox with our expert team.
What is a Platysmal Band?
The platysma is a thin, broad sheet of muscle located in the front of the neck. When this muscle loosens with age or is overused, it becomes prominent in the form of vertical bands on the neck. These bands are called platysmal bands.
- Can be seen starting from the 30s.
- It is more common in women than in men.
- Over time, it combines with neck sagging and a lack of jawline definition, causing an aged appearance.
What is Platysmal Band Botox?
Platysmal Band Botox is a procedure that reduces the hyperactivity of the platysma muscle by injecting botulinum toxin into it.
- Reduces the appearance of vertical bands in the neck area.
- Makes the jawline more defined.
- Gives the neck area a younger and tighter appearance.
This method can also be applied as part of a “Nefertiti Lift.”
