Top Non-Surgical Procedures to Rejuvenate Your Neck

The neck is a common problem area when it comes to signs of aging. From sagging skin and tissue to pronounced neck cords and horizontal necklines, the neck quickly loses its smooth, firm appearance as you age. Neck lift surgery and liposuction are the invasive options for fixing a “turkey neck” but there are non-surgical options to firm and tighten the skin and tissue before it becomes a waddle. Here are some of the cosmetic treatments we offer at LL Aesthetics to rejuvenate the neck area.

Botox Injections

Did you know that Botox can be used for smoothing necklines and cords? Botox works by relaxing muscles that can cause lines and wrinkles, but it can also reduce pronounced vertical neck cords, a procedure we call the Nefertiti neck lift. When injected into the desired areas in the neck, the thick platysma muscles that stick out as you get older can be relaxed. This can create the appearance of a smoother and more youthful neck with just a quick injection session. Botox effects take a few days to appear, then last about 3-4 months before the neurotoxin wears off. Repeated Botox injections can help keep the neck youthful without surgery.

Kybella Injections

If you have a fatty chin, it can make the neck look older. A double chin can occur at any age, usually from genetic or hormonal factors. If you want to slim your chin and neck, there are non-surgical options. The least invasive method is with Kybella injections. This is an FDA-approved treatment for chin and neck fat that only requires injections into the fatty tissue. Most people need multiple injections to achieve the desired outcome, but there are no incisions, and no downtime is needed. The injections contain a type of acid that is found in the digestive system that breaks down fat. When injected into a double chin, it permanently destroys the fat cells, and the fat is released back into the bloodstream.

Skin Tightening

Lost collagen is one of the biggest factors in aging or sagging skin. If you can increase collagen in the skin, it becomes firmer and more youthful. Skin tightening treatments induce collagen production, which can be accomplished through heat, microneedling, laser treatments, and other methods. At LL Aesthetics, we offer microneedling and Morpheus8 for collagen induction therapies that can improve the firmness of the skin and tissue on the neck and other areas. Morpheus8 can also help remodel fatty tissue if you have the beginnings of a turkey waddle appearing on your neck. Most of our clients benefit from two or more skin tightening treatments spaced at least a month apart to achieve a more youthful neck over a few months.
