Platysma Bands Treatment
The platysma consists of broad, thin muscles that sit on each side of your neck, and the two sides meet at the center. As you age, these muscles weaken and separate further, which creates unwanted platysma bands.
Most people feel anxious about platysma bands because they clearly signify aging and sagging skin. Researchers still study the exact cause of their appearance.
Some experts believe that platysma bands develop due to loss of muscle tone and sagging skin, so they recommend treatments that tighten both muscle and skin. In contrast, other experts argue that the muscles alone cause the bands, so they recommend focusing treatment solely on the muscle.
