Neck platysma band injections Melbourne
With age, people in Melbourne often develop vertical neck platysma bands that extend from your jawline down the neck. Caused by overactivity of the platysma muscle, vertical neck bands give your neck a saggy appearance, and take away your youthful neck contour and jawline definition.
Vertical neck bands can be improved by treating the platysma with muscle-relaxing injections. This results in a more youthful neck and jawline contour, and an improvement in sagging neck skin.
Treatment takes 5 mins. No downtime.
Minimal discomfort. Numbing available.
Result within 1-2 weeks.
To maintain look, revisit every 3-4 months.

Vertical neck bands are caused by overactivity of the platysma muscle.
The platysma is a thin sheet muscle that runs from jawline to collarbone, and is found just beneath the skin.
As we age the platysma muscle becomes hyerpractive. This manifests as vertical neck bands, giving your neck a saggy, aged appearance.
Having a non-surgical treatment for vertical platysma neck bands is a simple process.
Your neck skin will first be cleaned, marked and numbed.
Ultra-fine needles will then be used to precisely inject muscle-relaxing product into the platysma muscle responsible for the neck bands.
Treating the vertical platysma neck bands with injections usually takes around 5 minutes to complete.
You will see the final result from vertical platysma neck band injections 14 days after your treatment.
Injections for vertical platysma neck bands last 3-4 months on average.
The longevity of the result depends on the size and strength of the muscle, and the amount of muscle-relaxing product injected.
There are a few steps to take before your vertical platysma neck band injections in Melbourne to optimise your result, and lower the risk of side effects. They include:
- Cease all anti-inflammatories, aspirin, herbal supplements, fish oil, krill oil, glucosamine and vitamin E 1 week before your treatment (unless you have been advised to take these by a medical practitioner)
- Avoid excessive alcohol for 24 hours before your treatment
- Attend your appointment without makeup
- Closely shave your neck the day before where applicable
After having vertical platysma neck band injections in Melbourne you may notice mild redness and lumps under the skin at the injected area. These will resolve within the hour.
The effect will start to kick in after 3-5 days, and increase in strength with the final result being seen 14 days after the treatment.

How to treat vertical platysma neck bands at Cosmetic Connection Melbourne
Vertical neck band injections reduce prominent neck bands by relaxing the platysma muscle. This improves your neck silhouette, and put a pause on the ageing process.
The platysma muscle is a thin sheet muscle located just beneath the skin, running from your jawline to collar bones. With age the platysma becomes hyperactive, causing neck bands and accelerating neck ageing.
Using muscle relaxing injections, the platysma muscle of the neck can relaxed. The injections can be placed in a grid pattern, or along the individual vertical neck bands.
Looking for vertical neck band injections in Melbourne?
Treating vertical neck bands can help people in Melbourne with mild to moderate neck banding, and who have good skin elasticity. The treatment can improve both dynamic and resting neck bands.
By reducing neck bands, you can look forward to a more youthful neck silhouette, and enhanced jawline definition.
You can still treat your neck bands even if you have moderate to severe neck bands or sagging neck skin. However, you should consider combining the treatment with collagen stimulating injections, and skin tightening. A surgical neck lift always remains an option for severe sagging of the neck.
If you want to improve the appearance of your neck and slow down further neck ageing to avoid needing neck lift surgery, then consider treating your platysma bands with injections at Cosmetic Connection Melbourne.
