Platysma tightening with Botox®
by Aesthetify

A firm neck and a wrinkle-free décolleté have long been considered a sign of youthfulness and freshness and are now an ideal of beauty that is often aspired to. The skin around the neck and décolleté is thinner and more delicate than the other areas of the body – which is why the skin in these areas tends to lose elasticity and wrinkles develop. The muscle in the jawline area of the face pulls downwards, accelerating the ageing process. So that the annoying wrinkles on the neck no longer have to be hidden under a turtleneck, they can now be treated with Botox®. Botox® can be used to lift the face a little. Or even better: start early and don’t let it get that far.

Platysma treatment

Informative

The platysma muscle

The platysma muscle is the neck muscle that runs down along the jawline. With increasing age, this muscle loses its natural elasticity so that the contours become blurred and a double chin develops.

In addition, the skin’s ability to store moisture and regenerate itself diminishes, which is why it becomes increasingly saggy and wrinkles appear. In addition, the vertical cords of the platysma muscle can be seen even with slight tension, for example when speaking or making mimic movements.

Due to the delicate skin structure in the neck area and its diminishing elasticity, these strands become increasingly prominent with age. There are many measures that can supposedly delay the appearance of these neck wrinkles, such as using a moisturizing skin care product or so-called facial yoga.

However, these interventions have no influence on the formation of these wrinkles. Ultimately, the development of neck wrinkles with increasing age cannot be prevented – which is why many people consider platysma treatment with botulinum toxin.

Course of a platysma lift with botulinum toxin

One way of treating wrinkles in the neck area is by injecting botulinum toxin. Colloquially known as Botox®, muscle relaxant has been an integral part of aesthetic cosmetic treatments for years and is used to treat fine lines and pronounced wrinkles on the face and neck.

When injecting wrinkles with botulinum toxin, the affected area is injected with the muscle relaxant. The muscle relaxant relaxes the muscles, preventing new wrinkles from forming. Existing wrinkles are smoothed out due to the lack of contractions.

Risks & side effects of a platysma lift

Platysma treatment with botulinum toxin generally has few side effects and is risk-free and pain-free. However, there are minor side effects that can occur after treatment. These include

  • Redness and swelling of the treated areas
  • Bruises

 

You don’t have to worry about the long-term effects of treatment with Botox®, as studies have shown that the treatment has no long-term side effects.

Costs of a platysma lift with botulinum toxin

The prices are calculated according to the GOÄ and are to be understood as guide prices.

The price of a platysma treatment will be discussed with you in a personal consultation or will be communicated to you on request. A platysma Botox®-treatment is usually between 700.00 € and 1000.00 €.
