Neck lines & Platysmal bands

The Platysma is a large superficial muscle located in the neck and décolletage. Its contraction causes a depression of the jaw.

With skin thinning, happening with of ageing, its fibers become evident in the form of vertical bands on each side of the neck.

The appearance of these bands can be softened with the injection of Botulinum toxin.

In adjunction to platysmal bands, ageing causes the formation of horizontal neck lines that can be treated with a combination of treatments such as:

Microneedling with or without PRP, it stimulates the production of new Collagen creating a controlled injury to the skin in the form of microchannels. This results in a younger, smoother, plumper and brighter looking skin. It can be used on its own or in combination with Platelets Rich Plasma (PRP) or growth factors serums.

Mesotherapy, it consists of multiple microinjections of a cocktail containing Vitamins, Amino Acids, Hyaluronic acid, Enzymes, Hormones and plant extracts, in the mesoderm, the mid layer of the skin. All these substances stimulate the fibroblasts production of Collagen, the substance responsible for skin rejuvenation and repair. This results in a younger, smoother, plumper and brighter looking skin.

HIFU, stands for High intensity focused ultrasound. HIFU reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, helps to lift and firm sagging skin as well as rejuvenates the overall appearance, by stimulating collagen production. It’s also very effective in reducing stubborn fat deposits in multiple areas. It’s a completely non invasive treatment and has zero downtime.

Polynucleotideswhich are a sequesnce of nucleotides that, once injected, target the fibroblasts to produce more collagen and elastin. By doing so they aid skin regeneration and tissue repair, they also increaseskinh hydration and hyaluronic acid synthesis.

Exosomeswhich are extracellular vescicles. This treatment aids tissue regeneration, softening fine lines and wrinkles, tightening loose and aged skin, hydrating the skin, improving skin tone and texture.

All of these stimulate collagen and elastin production in the neck area.

Platysma bands can be treated with Botox injections.
