Platysma Botox Injection(Facelift)

Whole face lift treatment

By using Botox to relax the platysma muscle that runs along the nape of the neck, the entire face line is lifted. This treatment can also be used to improve nasolabial folds and sagging facial contours.

Painless Botox (for those who are worried about the pain of the procedure)

At Elm Clinic, we cool the injection site and mix anesthetic into the Botox to minimize the pain of the injection. If you are worried about the pain of the needle, we can also use topical anesthesia, which will allow you to undergo the treatment with almost no pain.
We also use a vibrating pen at some clinics, so please feel free to ask us about it.

Regarding the application of anesthesia:The technique of mixing anesthetic with Botox before injection is widely used for purposes such as "pain reduction" and "controlling diffusion." It does not affect the duration or final result of Botox's original effects, such as "improving wrinkles" and "relaxing muscle function."
If you are sensitive to pain or would like to receive treatment in a relaxed environment, please feel free to discuss this with us during your consultation.

Recommended for

  • Those who are starting to worry about sagging face lines
  • Those who want to tighten the entire face and improve fine lines
  • Those who want to lift their cheeks and improve nasolabial folds

"Platysma Botox(Facelift Botox)What is it? ”

Facelift Botox is applied to the contour area and the platysma muscle, which runs from the lower face to the neck.The platysma muscle is the muscle in the neck that is pulled when you say "yea" with all your might, and it is the muscle that pulls your face downward.Facelift Botox has the effect of lifting the cheeks and the entire face by weakening the action of the platysma muscle.The overall cheek line and face line will be lifted, which can also be expected to improve the appearance of smile lines.

Difference with Erabotox

Elabotox

  • The injection is performed directly into the masseter muscle, a muscle located below the ear.
  • If muscle activity continues to be inhibited, the muscles gradually become smaller.
  • The gills become smaller and the face line becomes sharper.

face lift botox

  • The injection is performed directly into the platysma muscle, a muscle that pulls the entire face downward.
  • When muscle activity continues to be inhibited, the force that pulls it downward becomes weaker.
  • Since the downward force is weakened, it has the effect of lifting the face line, and since the position of the cheeks is also raised, it is also effective in improving the nasolabial glands.
