Devices

Allergan Botox vial used for platysma band relaxation

Botox® (onabotulinumtoxinA)

Allergan Aesthetics (AbbVie)FDA-approved neuromodulator (BLA 103000); MFDS-licensed and procured through authorized Korean channels with traceable lot numbers

Key specs

: Targets platysma muscle to relax vertical neck bands and dynamic horizontal lines
: Dose planning differs from facial Botox — neck anatomy requires conservative units to preserve swallowing and natural movement
: Onset 3-7 days; peak effect at 2 weeks; duration 4-6 months typical
: Often combined with HA filler for static crease smoothing in the same session

HA Dermal Filler (Allergan Juvéderm)

Allergan Aesthetics (AbbVie)FDA-approved hyaluronic acid filler family (Vycross / Vollure indications); MFDS-licensed

Key specs

: Smooths static horizontal neck creases that remain when the neck is relaxed
: Strategic placement at neck creases requires anatomic understanding of platysma + dermal layer
: Results immediate; full settling at 2 weeks
Duration: 6-12 months for neck placement (longer for higher-G' products in jawline area)

Thermage FLX system used for neck skin tightening combo

Thermage FLX (optional RF combo)

Solta Medical (Bausch Health)FDA cleared monopolar RF (K170758, 2017)

Key specs

: Optional combo per operator spec — Thermage adds skin envelope tightening that injectables alone do not deliver
: Cryogen-cooled monopolar RF heats dermis to 65-75°C, triggering collagen remodeling over 2-6 months
: Single Thermage session, often spaced 2-4 weeks before or after neck Botox/filler protocol
: RF combo is recommended when patient also presents with skin envelope laxity, not just dynamic bands

Process

02
Treatment plan is mapped: Botox injection points for bands, filler placement for creases
03
Botox is injected into platysmal bands to relax dynamic neck wrinkles
04
Filler is strategically placed to smooth static neck creases
05
Total procedure time: 1-2 hours including consultation

Aftercare

01First 4-6 hours
Avoid lying flat, strenuous exercise, or massaging the treated area. Sleep slightly elevated for the first night.
02First 24-48 hours
Avoid heat (sauna, hot shower, hot yoga) and intense sun exposure. Mild swelling and bruising expected — cool compresses help.
03Week 1
Visible recovery (swelling, bruising) typically resolves over the first week. Avoid aggressive neck skincare actives.
04Long-term
Daily SPF 50+ on neck and décolleté to protect skin quality. Schedule Botox maintenance at 4-6 months and filler review at 6-12 months.

FAQ

How is neck Botox different from facial Botox?

Neck Botox targets the platysma muscle that creates vertical bands and horizontal lines. The injection technique and dosage differ from facial expression line treatment.

Can I combine neck tightening with Thermage or Ultherapy?

Yes. Many patients combine injectable neck treatment with energy-based lifting for comprehensive results. The dermatologist will plan the optimal sequence.

Is there visible downtime after neck treatment?

Mild swelling or bruising is expected, and visible recovery typically takes about 1 week. Most patients can resume normal activities the same day, but cosmetic settling continues over the first week.

Notice

Tell the dermatologist at consultation if any of the following apply.

Active skin infection or open wound in the neck area
Pregnancy or lactation (Botox + filler both deferred)
Known hypersensitivity to botulinum toxin or hyaluronic acid
Active anticoagulant therapy without physician clearance (increased bruising risk)
Neuromuscular disorders (myasthenia gravis, Lambert-Eaton — Botox contraindicated)
Recent vaccine or major dental work in the area (relative — defer 2 weeks)

For your visit

Expected mild swelling and bruising; visible recovery is approximately 1 week
Results from Botox develop over 3-7 days; filler results are immediate
Avoid strenuous exercise and lying flat for 4-6 hours post-treatment
Results last 4-6 months for Botox, 6-12 months for filler
