Botox for platysma band? (Photo)

Hello and thank you for your question. Botox or any neuromodulator can temporarily relax the platysma bands. These are vertical muscle bands that run down the neck and create a downward pull on the jawline. Botox has recently received the FDA approval for treatment of moderate to severe platysma bands. This treatment will reduce the prominence of the muscle bands and improve jawline definition. Hope this helps!

Hello,

Yes, wrinkle relaxers are an effective treatment for reducing the appearance of platysma bands. Wrinkle relaxers temporarily block nerve signals to the platysma muscle, inhibiting its contraction. This relaxation smooths the vertical neck bands and can enhance jawline definition.

Hi there! I’m Lauren, the aesthetic injector here at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center.
Botox is a widely used and highly effective non-surgical option for treating prominent platysma bands. In fact, it has recently received FDA approval specifically for this use, making it an even more trusted and recognized treatment. By relaxing the platysma muscle, Botox can help smooth the appearance of vertical neck bands and restore a more youthful, refined neckline.
