Treatment Overview
Aging often affects the neck area, revealing horizontal lines, vertical platysma bands, skin laxity, and loss of volume, resulting in a crepey or sagging appearance. Dermal Neck Rejuvenation in Korea is a minimally invasive dermatology injectable procedure designed to smooth deep wrinkles, restore lost volume, and rejuvenate the overall neck contour.
This treatment combines high-quality hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) fillers, collagen-stimulating injectables, and Botox to relax platysma bands and improve skin elasticity. Korean clinics are internationally recognized for advanced injection techniques, premium products, and individualized treatment plans that achieve natural and long-lasting results.
Purpose & Benefits
Dermal Neck Rejuvenation provides multiple aesthetic and functional benefits:
- Smoothing horizontal neck lines and folds.
- Reducing visibility of vertical platysma bands using Botox.
- Restoring lost volume for a firmer, youthful neck.
- Enhancing skin elasticity and hydration.
- Stimulating collagen production (especially with CaHA or collagen-stimulating fillers).
- Offering a non-surgical alternative to neck lift procedures.
- Delivering immediate, natural-looking results.
Ideal Candidates
Candidates suitable for this treatment include:
- Individuals with deep neck wrinkles or sagging skin.
- Patients with prominent platysma bands or vertical neck lines.
- Those seeking non-surgical neck rejuvenation with minimal downtime.
- People looking to complement facial or hand rejuvenation.
- Individuals who desire long-lasting, subtle improvement in neck aesthetics.
Possible Risks & Complications
Although generally safe, possible side effects may include:
- Mild swelling, redness, or bruising at injection sites.
- Tenderness or minor discomfort.
- Rare uneven filler distribution or minor lumps (usually corrected in follow-up).
- Rare allergic reactions to filler or Botox materials.
- Very low risk of infection due to Korea’s strict clinical hygiene standards.
