This muscle is quietly pulling the face downward — and most people don’t realize it.
The platysma is a superficial neck muscle that contributes to neck banding, jawline blurring, and downward tension in the lower face.
When treated thoughtfully with Botox, relaxing this muscle can soften bands, reduce that downward pull, and support a more defined jawline — without adding volume.
It’s one of ’s favorite treatments for patients seeking subtle refinement and balance, especially when the neck is aging faster than the face.
As always, proper assessment is key. Not every patient needs platysma Botox — but for the right candidate, the impact can be quietly transformative.
