Dermal fillers are a popular anti-aging procedure in Sterling Heights for correcting the appearance of turkey necks. Composed of hyaluronic acid, these injections add mass that helps fill in wrinkles and fill the skin below. As with a surgical facelift, tightening the middle of the face will also lift the neck. Products such as Juvederm and Restylane can lift the cheek area by restoring facial volume.
With age, this area can lose fat that will cause the skin to sag. A non-surgical lift here will restore lost volume while subtly lifting loose skin to offer a more defined jawline. The new Nefertiti Lift is a fifteen-minute procedure that involves up to forty small Botox injections in the neck and lower jaw. Turkey necks form when the platysma, a thin fan of muscle that extends from the chest to the neck to the jaw, separates into rope-like bands.
Botox relaxes some of those bands, as well as the muscle, creating a firmer jaw and a smoother neck. How exactly does Botox relax muscles? Kybella is an injectable cosmetic treatment for adults that attacks and permanently destroys stubborn fat cells under the chin. The active ingredient in Kybella is deoxycholic acid, a natural molecule that helps break down and digest dietary fat. For those looking to reduce the appearance of turkey neck, dermal fillers are an effective option. By adding volume to the cheeks, it can help lift sagging skin and create a more defined jawline.
Botox injections can also help relax muscles in this area, creating a smoother look. Finally, Kybella can help reduce stubborn fat cells under the chin for a more youthful appearance.
