Ways to Improve Your Neck and Jawline!"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever looked in the mirror and asked, &#8220;How did I get this turkey neck?&#8221; Excess fat under the chin, skin laxity from aging and sun damage, and prominent muscle bands, called platysma bands, all contribute to the dreaded turkey neck. Advanced Dermatology offers many state-of-the-art treatments to address the neck and jawline by targeting excess fat under the chin, neck laxity, wrinkles, and howling.<\/p>\n<p>To remove excess fat under the chin, Advanced Dermatology uses Kybella\u2122\ufe0f and CoolMini\u2122. Kybella\u2122 is deoxycholic acid which is a similar synthetic molecule our bodies naturally produce to break down fat. When we inject this liquid substance under the chin, fat membranes are destroyed and reabsorbed into the body, permanently removing excess fat. Another great solution for excess chin fat is CoolMini\u2122. CoolMini\u2122 is the same treatment as CoolSculpting\u00ae but for the area under the chin. CoolMini\u2122 uses cryolipolysis, or fat freezing technology, to remove unwanted fat in as little as 45 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-14753 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.advdermatology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-1024x571.jpeg\" alt=\"Woman's Side Profile\" width=\"800\" height=\"446\" srcset=\"https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-1024x571.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-300x167.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-768x428.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-1536x856.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-2048x1142.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-600x334.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-992x553.jpeg 992w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-1200x669.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-718x400.jpeg 718w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-525x293.jpeg 525w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-750x418.jpeg 750w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-278x155.jpeg 278w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-320x178.jpeg 320w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-500x279.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-897x500.jpeg 897w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021-60x33.jpeg 60w, https:\/\/omsadvderm2019.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AdvancedDermatologyBlog_profile_Dec2021.jpeg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>We can tighten the neck and jawline skin using several different devices. Ultherapy\u00ae uses focused ultrasound to heat the skin and produce new collagen. Thermage\u00ae uses radiofrequency in a similar manner. Profound\u00ae and Genius\u2122 place tiny radiofrequency needles into the skin to create new collagen and elastin. These tissue-tightening results will be visible after several months and are effective, non-invasive face and neck lift alternatives.<\/p>\n<p>Vertical muscles called platysma bands run from the base of your neck to your jaw and pull down on your lower face and neck, which eventually leads to skin laxity and loss of jawline definition. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advdermatology.com\/cosmetic-procedures\/botulinum-toxin\/nefertiti-lift\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nefertiti Lift<\/a>, named after the Egyptian Queen Nefertiti, uses neuromodulators including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advdermatology.com\/cosmetic-procedures\/botulinum-toxin\/botox\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BOTOX<\/a>\u00ae, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advdermatology.com\/cosmetic-procedures\/botulinum-toxin\/dysport\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dysport<\/a>\u00ae, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advdermatology.com\/cosmetic-procedures\/botulinum-toxin\/xeomin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Xeomin<\/a>\u00ae, and Jeuveau\u2122\ufe0f to prevent these muscles from pulling down, resulting in a contoured and more youthful jawline.<\/p>\n<p>Jowls are excess skin pockets that form at the sides of the mouth as the face loses fat and collagen. Jowling leads to a more rectangular-shaped face connected with middle age, as opposed to the heart-shaped face that&#8217;s linked with youth and beauty. There are many ways to soften the appearance of jowls. Injectable fillers, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advdermatology.com\/cosmetic-procedures\/injectable-fillers\/restylane-juvederm-juvederm-voluma-xc-restylane-lyft-belotero\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Juvederm\u00ae Voluma<\/a>\u2122, lift the cheeks and camouflage the jowls.

Make sure to use zinc oxide sunscreen daily all year long, even when in a car. UVA penetrates deep and goes through car windows, damaging our collagen and causing thinner skin.
