Dermal filler is a non-invasive way to treat the fine lines and wrinkles on the neck with little to no downtime.
To treat neck lines and chest wrinkles, Dr. Emer uses a smooth, super soft filler like Belotero Balance, a hyaluronic acid (HA) filler that can improve moderate-to-severe etched-in lines and wrinkles and is specifically designed to address nasolabial folds (smile lines).
Dermal Fillers—Juvederm
Dermal fillers are another popular anti-aging procedure in Sterling Heights to correct turkey neck. Made up of hyaluronic acid, these injections add mass that helps fill in wrinkles and plump up the skin below.
Where dermal fillers fill, cosmetic neuromodulators tighten. Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin can tighten muscles along the jawline, pulling neck skin tighter. Botox injected into the two strips of muscles that run from the base of your neck to the jaw (platysmal bands) also results in tighter skin over these muscles.
Dermal filler is a non-invasive way to treat the fine lines and wrinkles on the neck with little to no downtime.
Injected along the line, the filler plumps and fills—and the smooth results last for about a year. The procedure takes no more than ten minutes, and you can expect a little bruising and swelling to follow. After a few days, your neck wrinkles are softened or totally erased.
For those deeper neck lines, we can use dermal fillers. These fill in the lines, revealing a smoother area. For a neck lift without surgery, we'll often use Belotero Balance, Juvederm Volbella, or Restylane Silk.
Specifically, BOTOX® improves the contour of the neck by relaxing the muscle bands on the sides of the neck. Known as platysmal bands, these cords stretch from your collarbone to your jawline. They tend to stick out more due to aging, weight fluctuations, and working out excessively.
Botox is a non-surgical procedure that helps you to look younger, by relaxing the muscles that can contribute to wrinkles and lines in your neck. A series of injections will be strategically administered in your problem areas, giving you smoother skin and a younger appearance within just a couple of weeks.
Dr. Kassouf recommends retinol topical creams to help reduce that crepey look. Retinols help restore skin's elasticity and thicken collagen (which gives our skin its structure) as well as elastin (which gives our skin its stretch).
During this procedure, Botox is injected to help tighten the look of the neck muscles so that the neck has a more taut and youthful appearance. The platysmal bands of the neck and D.A.O. muscle of the jawline are what is targeted during this procedure.
"One syringe per neck line is typically required," Dr. Durairaj says of the procedure. "The filler needs to be carefully placed to where it's visible enough to fill in the lines, but not too superficial where we see visible bands of filler along the neck."
“Cumulative sun exposure over a lifetime has always been the main culprit of premature aging on the neck.” On top of that, our cell phone addictions aren't helping the cause. “Between sun exposure and the addition of looking at our phones repeatedly, we are seeing neck changes even earlier,” says Engelman.
"If the filler is not permanent, such as Restylane Silk or Juvederm, the lips will return to their original shape," says Dr. Howard Sobel, founder of DDF Skincare. "If the filler is permanent, such as Silicon 1000, they'll stay the same." Dr.
Botulinum toxin type A injections effectively reduce platysmal bands,15,18 but only marginally improve horizontal necklines. Skin excision, platysma plication, and liposuction can improve the neck contour,12–14 but again, may have limited effects on horizontal necklines.
Botox reduces sagging jowls by tightening and lifting the jaw area. This pulls back the excess sagging skin that creates jowls in the first place.
Platysma bands are the vertical cords that appear in the neck as one of the first signs of aging. What causes platysma bands is still a topic for research. Some studies suggest that platysma bands are the result of sagging skin and a loss of muscle tone, and so treatment should focus on tightening the skin and muscle.
Radiofrequency When you have this type of radiofrequency, a thin tube (or needles), is inserted into your skin to heat up the tissue beneath. This allows your dermatologist to provide heat exactly where you need it to tighten loose skin. Dermatologists often use this procedure to tighten the neck or upper arms.
Thermage is FDA-approved for treatment on the neck and jawline, and its radiofrequency energy is able to stimulate collagen production which in turn creates firmer, smoother skin at and around the treatment area.
Neck lift surgery (platysmaplasty) is the most effective, but also most invasive, treatment for jowls. It may be the only option available to patients with severe jowls or substantial laxity.
Thermage is better for patients who care more about addressing the texture and quality of sagging skin. It has the power to tackle problematic issues like cellulite or drooping fat thanks to its emphasis on contouring. However, Ultherapy is generally more effective when it comes to stimulating deeper skin layers.
Yes. Advanced energy-based treatments make it possible to tighten the skin and tissues on every area of the body, including the more delicate areas such as the neck. In fact, using lasers to correct skin laxity on the neck is usually the first choice of many cosmetic physicians because it is so reliable and effective.
