Centrally located to cater to New York City residents on the Upper East Side.
The neck is often one of the first areas to show signs of aging, including neck bands, horizontal lines, and sagging skin. These visible signs of aging can be effectively treated with Botox Cosmetic, a non-surgical solution designed to smooth and tighten the neck. Botox is a minimally invasive treatment that relaxes the muscles responsible for these lines and wrinkles, helping you achieve a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
At Skinly Aesthetics, we specialize in Botox for neck rejuvenation, offering treatments for seeking natural-looking results without surgery. Led by board-certified cosmetic physician Dr. Schwarzburg in NYC, our Botox neck treatments target platysma muscles to smooth out neck bands, improve skin texture, and restore jawline definition.

What is Botox for the Neck?
Botox for the neck is a cosmetic procedure that targets the platysma muscles in the neck, which are responsible for vertical bands and loose skin. As these muscles contract with age, they pull the skin downward, leading to visible lines, wrinkles, and sagging. By injecting Botox into strategic points along the neck, these muscles relax, reducing the appearance of neck bands, horizontal lines (often called necklace lines), and other signs of aging.
This treatment is also known as the Nefertiti Lift, named after the ancient Egyptian queen who was famed for her smooth, elegant neck. Botox not only smooths the neck but also helps enhance the jawline, giving a more defined and lifted look without the need for invasive surgery.
How Does Botox Work for Neck Wrinkles?
Botox works by temporarily blocking nerve signals to the muscles, causing them to relax. When injected into the platysma muscles, Botox prevents these muscles from pulling the skin downward, resulting in smoother, more youthful-looking skin. It is especially effective for:
- Vertical neck bands (caused by the platysma muscle tightening).
- Horizontal lines (or necklace lines).
- Sagging skin and early signs of loose skin around the neck.
The procedure is quick, typically lasting 10-15 minutes, and involves minimal discomfort. You’ll begin to notice results within 5-7 days, with full effects visible by the two-week mark. Results typically last for 3-4 months, after which follow-up treatments are recommended to maintain a smooth, rejuvenated neck.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Botox for Neck?
You may be an ideal candidate for Botox if you are experiencing:
- Vertical neck bands that create an aged appearance.
- Horizontal neck lines, often referred to as “necklace lines.”
- Sagging skin or loss of jawline definition.
- Preventative treatment: Botox can also be used to prevent neck wrinkles from becoming more severe over time, making it ideal for younger individuals seeking early intervention.
Patients seeking a non-invasive treatment to improve their neck’s appearance without the downtime or risks of surgery will benefit most from Botox for the neck.
How Long Does Botox for the Neck Last?
The effects of Botox on the neck last approximately 3-4 months, depending on how quickly your body metabolizes the Botox and the severity of your neck lines. Maintenance treatments are typically scheduled every few months to ensure long-lasting results.
For those with more severe signs of aging, combining Botox with other cosmetic treatments can help enhance and extend results.
Botox for Neck: What to Expect During the Procedure
1. Consultation: Dr. Schwarzburg will carefully evaluate your neck, jawline, and facial structure, discussing your concerns and goals. This consultation will determine the number of Botox units needed and the ideal injection points for your desired results.
2. Treatment: During the treatment, Botox is injected into the platysma muscles using ultra-fine needles. The procedure is quick and minimally invasive, typically lasting 10-15 minutes.
3. Post-Treatment: There is no downtime associated with Botox for the neck, meaning you can return to your daily activities immediately. You may experience slight redness or swelling at the injection sites, but this typically subsides within a few hours.
Complementary Treatments for Enhanced Neck Rejuvenation
For more dramatic results, Dr. Schwarzburg may recommend combining Botox with additional treatments, such as:
- Dermal Fillers: To add volume to sagging areas, smooth deep wrinkles around the neck and enhance jawline definition.
- Laser or Radiofrequency Skin Tightening: Treatments like Fraxel Dual or Morpheus8 can boost collagen production and help tighten loose skin in the neck and jawline areas.
Combining treatments often provides more comprehensive and longer-lasting results.
Cost of Botox for the Neck
The cost of Botox for the neck varies depending on the severity of the wrinkles and the number of units required. Most patients need between 30-60 units, and the treatment generally costs between $500 and $1,500. During your consultation at Skinly Aesthetics, Dr. Schwarzburg will provide a personalized quote based on your specific needs and goals.
