31 with platysma bands, will Botox help?

August 7, 2018
Asked By:hellock888 in Danvers, MA

The edges of my platysma muscle are visible in the front when I hold my head up high. It doesn't look as though it is "split" but clearly visible. From reading it looks like the weight gain and loss through pregnancy or straining my neck at the gym could be the cause. Is botox the only option to hide this?
