Treatment info

What the treatment can do

Platysmal band injections are a convenient and effective treatment that improves vertical neck bands.

To reduce the severity of your neck bands, we inject a muscle relaxing product traditionally used for treating wrinkles. This causes a controlled weakening of your platysma muscles, reducing the appearance of your neck bands.

Treating neck bands also improves the appearance of neck sagging, and can restore definition to your jawline.

Suitability

Platysmal neck band injections can benefit people who are developing vertical neck banding as they age.

Best for mild to moderate neck bands, this treatment works to achieve natural yet noticeable improvements in the appearance of your neck.

If you have extensive sagging skin on your neck, then treating your neck bands may not be the best first line option.

During your consultation, our experienced clinicians will advise on your suitability for platysmal neck band injections.

Preparation

To ensure your neck platysma band injections go to plan, follow our preparation guidelines:

  • Remove all makeup immediately before your appointment
  • Avoid consuming alcohol within 24 hours of your appointment
  • Refrain from intense exercise immediately before your appointment

Aftercare

After neck platysma band injections, proper aftercare is crucial for optimal healing and results:

  • Avoid makeup, alcohol, smoking and intense exercise for 24 hours
  • Refrain from applying pressure to the treated areas for 4 hours
  • Gently apply a wrapped ice pack to the injection sites to minimise swelling and bruising

Results

After treating your platysmal neck bands, you can get back to your day immediately.

Over the next 1-2 weeks, you’ll notice your platysmal bands fade and your neck appear more youthful.

You can enjoy your natural-looking results for 3-5 months, and complement them by rejuvenating your neck with collagen treatments, and restoring your jawline structure.
