I recently turned 34 and feel like it's time to look into Botox and or fillers. I have a vertical neck and that seems to show all the time regardless of the position of my head.and when I clench my teeth it's extremely crazy looking. I also have a large vein in my forehead that bulges when I laugh… What would be your suggestion is to fix these?

Answer: Botox injection for platysmal bands Botox injection can improve the vertical neck bands demonstrated on the photos above. These bands are the result of platysmal muscle contraction and so relaxing the platysma with Botox will soften the bands. As for the forehead vein, a 1064 nm laser maybe helpful but honestly I would probably just leave the veins alone.

Answer: Platysmal bands improvement/treatment Most of these bands can be improved with the use of Botox in the platysmal bands. The bands at rest won't respond as well and are harder to take care of. I'd still try Botox on these too. If no improvement, consider a skin tightening procedure such as Infini or Thermi RF. For the forehead vein, a 1064 laser is able to take care of some of these. If it is not too large, you can give it a try.
