What Is the Nefertiti Neck Lift?
The Nefertiti Neck Lift is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure designed to redefine the jawline and smooth the neck using Botox injections. Named after the ancient Egyptian queen known for her elegant neckline, this treatment targets the platysma muscles, which can contribute to sagging skin and prominent neckbands as we age.
How Does It Work?
Botox is injected into specific points along the lower jaw and neck to relax the platysma muscle. This relaxation reduces the downward pull on the jawline, allowing the muscles in the upper face to lift naturally. As a result, the jawline appears more sculpted, and the neck looks firmer and smoother. The treatment is especially popular among those who want a more defined lower face without undergoing invasive surgery.
Benefits and Results
One of the biggest advantages of the Nefertiti Neck Lift is that it requires no downtime. The procedure typically takes about 15 to 30 minutes, with results appearing within a few days and lasting for three to six months. Side effects are usually minimal, including mild bruising or swelling at the injection sites. However, the effectiveness of the treatment varies depending on factors like age, skin condition, and the severity of sagging.
Is It Right for You?
While this procedure can create a noticeable improvement, it is not a replacement for a surgical neck lift. Individuals with significant skin laxity may not achieve the desired results with Botox alone. Some patients combine the Nefertiti Neck Lift with other treatments, such as dermal fillers or skin tightening procedures, to enhance the outcome.
For those considering this treatment, it is essential to consult with an experienced injector to ensure proper technique and realistic expectations. A skilled provider will assess whether the Nefertiti Neck Lift is suitable for your needs and discuss alternative options if necessary.
