Vertical Neck Lines


Vertical neck lines—often referred to as platysmal bands—are the vertical cords or ridges that appear on the neck, particularly when talking, swallowing, or making facial expressions. Over time, these lines can become more prominent at rest due to increased muscle activity, thinning skin, and a natural decline in collagen and elasticity.


Botulinum toxin offers a highly effective, non-surgical solution to soften these bands and restore a smoother, more youthful neck contour. By precisely targeting the platysma muscle, this treatment reduces the appearance of vertical lines and improves the overall definition of the neck and jawline.

This treatment is ideal for individuals who:

• Notice visible vertical bands on the neck, especially when the neck is tensed

• Are concerned with neck ageing and want to improve definition in the lower face

• Seek a non-surgical solution to reduce visible muscle tension and soften the neck’s appearance

• Want to complement other facial treatments (e.g., jawline contouring or toxin in the upper face)

• Are looking to delay or avoid surgical neck lift procedures

How Does the Treatment Work?

Vertical neck lines are caused by overactivity of the platysma muscle, a thin, sheet-like muscle that runs from the jawline to the collarbone. As this muscle becomes more active or begins to pull downward with age, it creates visible cords or bands.


By injecting botulinum toxin into targeted points along the platysmal bands, we can:

• Relax the muscle’s pull and reduce dynamic tension

• Soften the appearance of vertical cords when speaking or smiling

• Improve jawline definition and lift the lower face subtly (often referred to as part of the Nefertiti Lift)

• Create a smoother, more elegant neck profile

Long-Term Benefits of Regular Botulinum Toxin Treatments

• Muscle Fatigue & Reduction in Bulk – With repeated treatments, the targeted muscle becomes weaker over time due to reduced activity, leading to a gradual slimming effect in areas such as the jawline, trapezius, and masseter muscles.

• Prevention of Deep Static Lines – Regular use of botulinum toxin reduces repetitive muscle contractions, preventing wrinkles from becoming permanently etched into the skin and resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance.

• Increased Longevity of Results – As the underlying muscles adapt to reduced movement, many clients find that they require fewer units over time or that results last longer between treatments.

• Gradual Muscle Wastage (Atrophy) – Over time, the muscle experiences atrophy (a decrease in size and strength), leading to longer-lasting results and a reduced need for frequent treatments in some cases.

• Enhanced Facial and Body Contouring – In areas like the jawline, trapezius, or masseter muscles, consistent treatments reduce bulk and refine the contour, creating a naturally sculpted and balanced aesthetic.
