What are vertical bands connecting the neck and jaw?
Vertical bands connecting the neck and jaw, also called platysma bands, are formed by the platysma muscle which is a thin muscle that covers the neck and extends over the lower face. When this muscle is contracted it can cause the appearance of bands on the neck, which can also impact jawline definition.
How does BOTOX work to treat platysma bands?
When we inject the vertical bands connecting the neck and jaw and along the jawline with the FDA-approved dose of BOTOX Cosmetic, it works beneath the surface and temporarily reduces the underlying muscle activity, which temporarily improves the appearance of the bands connecting the neck and jaw.
