Hello, I am only 38 and my neck skin is already very saggy. I don’t know if I can get these muscles to go away but it seems they show because of loose skin. I’ve been told to try Botox , microneedling and also been told that I just need to strengthen my neck. What are your thoughts?

Answer: Neck concerns You will likely have the best results from a combination of treatments. Botox can help with the prominence of platysmal bands. Morpheus8 treatments which combine RF technology with microneedling can improve overall skin tone and texture. We also recommend using medical grade skin care products like Transform MD and wearing sunscreen every day.

Answer: I would consider starting with botox. In certain people, Botox is helpful for diminishing the appearance of platysma bands. Since you appear to be too young for platysmoplasty, this is a reasonable starting place. We utilize Morpheus 8 in our practice to tighten neck skin. Frankly, I am unsure if you would benefit from this, however, if Botox doesn't work or is only partially effective, several aggressive treatments with radio frequency microneedling to your neck may be a reasonable alternative short of surgery. Thank you so much for your question. Sincerely, Dr Joseph
