Platysmal bands

Platysmal bands (neck lift)

  • Are two strips of muscle that run vertically down both sides of your neck that can contribute to the appearance of aging.
  • A platysmal bands neck lift cosmetic procedure aims at addressing these bands and rejuvenating the neck’s appearance.

    What are the platysmal bands on the neck?
  • They are caused by contractions of the platysma, the most superficial muscle layer in the face and neck.
  • The neck has a much thinner layer of skin than the face. The skin around your neck naturally loses fat deposits and collagen as you get older. These muscles usually become increasingly visible over time.
