I have been told that I will not get a good result using Botox to soften the neck cords on my neck because the skin on my neck is too loose . A face and neck lift was recommended but I don’t have the time and finances , at this point ,since my son’s wedding is in a few months .Because I have this special event coming up and I am upset with the vertical cords under my chin that extend down my neck , my dermatologist suggested I try RF Sublative to tighten my neck and then try Botox on the cords.

Answer: Non operative neck rejuvenation Botox can be very beneficial if your neck cords are tight and standout especially when you grind your back teeth. If they are flaccid and hang down, relaxing them more has no benefit. Your dermatologist or a plastic surgeon can help you identify your situation. EXTERNAL RF requires multiple treatments and the results are usually not dramatic. Risk of burns are much less than internal RF.

Answer: Save Your Money, Do The Facelift AFTER the Wedding! Elena. A little Botox placed in the cords of your platysma muscle may soften your neck a bit but it will not affect the redundant skin. Also radiofrequency (RF) treatment has not been proven to cause significant skin tightening and it certainly will not tighten it in time for the wedding. Enjoy the wedding and if your neck still bothers you, consider a full facelift after the wedding. Not enough time to recover before. Be certain to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck.
