Botox for Neck Bands Treatment
The neck ages just as much as the face, and one of the most noticeable changes is the appearance of pronounced neck bands. Vertical cords of muscle can begin to line the neck, creating a significantly more aged look. If you’d like to rejuvenate your neck and soften these cords without surgery, Dr. Erez Dayan offers Botox for neck bands treatment at Avance Plastic Surgery Institute in Reno/Tahoe, NV.
The neck is a nuanced area to treat with a neuromodulator — the platysma is a broad, functional muscle, so relaxing the bands while preserving comfortable movement takes real anatomical command, and that’s where Dr. Erez Dayan excels. A clinical investigator and key opinion leader for Allergan, the maker of Botox, and co-author of the textbook on facial anatomy and injectable safety, he is a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon and Medical Director of Avance Plastic Surgery Institute. He completed the Harvard Plastic Surgery Program — serving as Chief Resident at Massachusetts General Hospital — before an elite aesthetic fellowship at the Dallas Plastic Surgery Institute, where he was one of only two surgeons selected. Botox for neck bands is one of the practice’s Botox treatments.
What Causes Vertical Neck Bands?
Your neck is in constant use — bending, turning, and supporting your head. The platysma muscles are the vertical bands vital to that support and movement, but after decades of use they can become larger and more prominent over time. A youthful neck is smooth and contoured, without pronounced bands. With age, these neck cords can begin to stand out, revealing your age even when your face and skin still look youthful.
“Neck bands can age a person even when their face still looks great. Relaxing the platysma in the right spots softens those cords and smooths the neckline — a simple, non-surgical way to refresh an area that often gets overlooked.” — Dr. Erez Dayan
Smoothing Vertical Neck Cords in Reno/Tahoe
You don’t necessarily need a neck lift or surgery to rejuvenate the neck. For pronounced vertical neck cords, Botox injections offer a non-surgical, non-invasive option for a more youthful neckline. By targeting the platysma muscle, the injections allow the bands to relax, smoothing the neck. Results can appear after about a week and typically last three to four months or longer before the treatment needs to be repeated.
