Although prevention can’t stop vertical lines from appearing, the sooner we intervene and treat our neck age lines, the better. Patients may now fight the formation of vertical bands in their necks without having to have a neck lift or undergo surgery.
Botox injections
Botox injections are not only used to reduce wrinkles. The appearance of platysmal bands has been reduced by Botox type A, according to studies. Because it relaxes the muscles in the neck and gives the skin on the neck a smoother appearance, botulinum toxin A is now used to treat neck bands successfully.
Dermal fillers
Botulinum injections are an alternative treatment for falling hairline because they can stimulate the muscle that causes the forehead to droop.
Fillers, such as dermal fillers or hyaluronic acid or poly-L-lactic acid gels, are injected beneath the skin to increase volume in the region behind the neck bands and plump up the skin.
The results become apparent immediately after the treatment is completed, and they may last for up to 12 months.
Platysmaplasty
Many patients with deeply grooved neck bands choose platysmaplasty, or neck surgery, as their last resort after multiple Botox treatments fail to deliver results.
The procedure can be performed alone or in conjunction with a facelift. Recovery time is relatively short, and most people see results within a few months post-operation.
