Botox® for Neck Bands and Jawline at Sensational Skin Scottsdale
At Sensational Skin in Scottsdale, we go beyond facial rejuvenation to treat one of the most visible signs of aging—the neck. Botox® is the only FDA-approved treatment proven to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe vertical bands that form between the neck and jawline. By softening these lines, Botox not only rejuvenates the neck but also enhances the definition of the jawline, restoring a smoother and more youthful profile.
Why Do Neck Bands Appear?
The platysma muscle is a thin sheet-like muscle that covers the neck and extends into the lower face. When it contracts repeatedly over time, it can create:
- Vertical bands across the neck
- A sagging or less defined jawline
- An aged or strained appearance
These changes are natural but can make the face and neck look older than you feel.
How Botox® Helps
By carefully injecting Botox into the platysma muscle, we temporarily relax these overactive muscle fibers. The result is:
- Smoother neck contours
- Reduced appearance of vertical bands
- A sharper, more youthful-looking jawline
This quick, non-surgical treatment is ideal for patients who want noticeable results without surgery or downtime.

Botox® vs. Neck Lift Surgery: Which is Right for You?
When it comes to treating neck bands and redefining the jawline, patients often wonder if they should choose Botox® injections or a surgical neck lift. Here’s how they compare:
| Treatment Option | Pros | Cons | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Botox® for Neck Bands | Non-surgical; no downtime; quick in-office procedure (15–30 minutes); softens platysma bands; enhances jawline definition | Results are temporary (last 3–4 months); not a substitute for severe skin laxity | Patients seeking subtle, natural improvement without surgery |
| Neck Lift Surgery | Dramatic, long-lasting results; removes excess skin; repositions and tightens deeper tissues | Invasive surgery; significant downtime (2–3 weeks); higher cost; surgical risks | Patients with severe sagging or excess skin desiring permanent results |
At Sensational Skin, many patients begin with Botox® for neck bands because it offers safe, effective results with little to no downtime. For those with more advanced sagging, we can guide you toward complementary treatments—or refer you to trusted surgical partners if a lift is the best option.
Combination Treatments for Full Neck & Jawline Rejuvenation
At Sensational Skin in Scottsdale, Botox® for neck bands often works best when paired with other advanced treatments. By combining therapies, we can address not just the underlying muscle activity, but also skin quality, volume loss, and overall contour.
Popular Combinations:

- Botox® + Skin Tightening (IPL or Smoothbeam) – Helps firm lax skin and reduce discoloration for a more youthful neck appearance.
