Vertical neck bands, commonly known as platysmal bands, are vertical cords that become visible when the platysma muscle in the neck contracts, often creating a strained or aged appearance.
Botox addresses these bands by precisely relaxing the specific sections of the muscle responsible for the tension, which allows the "cords" to soften and smooth out against the neck.
By reducing this downward muscular pull, the treatment not only diminishes the appearance of the bands but also helps to refine the jawline for a more contoured, non-surgical lift.
