I had a facelift and necklift a year ago. (57 y female) I started lifting arm weights at the gym. After a month I noticed that my vertical platysma bands were prominent with grimacing and facial animation. I never noticed this before lifting weights. I really don't want Botox. If I stop lifting weights will the platysma bands relax? What has actually happened here to cause the platysma bands to show all of a sudden?
