Three different problems, three different fixes
Vertical bands are the platysma muscle showing through as it weakens and tightens with age. Botox into the bands can relax them and smooth the neck. Loose skin is a collagen problem, so treatments that tighten and rebuild, such as HIFU, XERF or threads, are discussed. Crepey horizontal lines and fine texture respond to resurfacing or skin-quality treatments.
Many necks have more than one of these, which is why a plan is often a combination rather than a single device.
What non-surgical treatment can and cannot do
These treatments can improve mild to moderate looseness, bands and texture. They do not remove a large amount of hanging skin or excess fat the way surgery can. If that is your situation, Dr. Kohli will say so and can refer you to a surgeon rather than sell you a series that will not get you there.
Who plans and performs your treatment
Dr. Rajan Kohli, MD, a physician board-certified in family medicine, personally evaluates and treats patients at Lakewood Med Spa. Before you book anywhere, ask who will inject you and how they manage complications.

Frequently asked questions
Turkey neck treatment questions
How do you treat a turkey neck without surgery?
It depends on the cause. Botox can relax vertical neck bands, HIFU, XERF and threads can address loose skin, and resurfacing or skin-quality treatments can smooth crepey texture. Dr. Kohli examines your neck and matches the treatment to what you have.
How much does neck band Botox cost in Dallas?
Botox for the neck bands at Lakewood Med Spa is $11 per unit, and the physician consultation has no charge. The number of units depends on how many bands you have and how strong they are, and Dr. Kohli estimates it at your visit.
Does HIFU work on the neck?
HIFU is one of the options used to tighten mildly to moderately loose skin on the lower face and neck. At Lakewood Med Spa HIFU is $799 per session on the booking menu, and Dr. Kohli confirms whether it suits your neck and which area is treated.
Can neck bands come back after Botox?
Botox wears off gradually, so the bands can return and treatment is repeated periodically. Dr. Kohli explains how often that is likely to be for you.
When is surgery a better answer for a turkey neck?
When there is a large amount of hanging skin or significant fat under the chin, a surgical opinion is more honest than a long series of devices. Dr. Kohli will tell you at the consultation and can refer you.
Is neck treatment safe for darker skin tones?
Many neck treatments are suitable across skin tones, but settings and the choice of device matter. Dr. Kohli reviews your skin type and history before recommending anything and adjusts the plan accordingly.
