Nefertiti (Neck) Lift
A Nefertiti Lift is a non-surgical neck lift that uses Botox to relax the neck muscles, creating a longer, thinner-looking neck. The treatment is named after the ancient Egyptian Queen Nefertiti, who was renowned worldwide for her beautiful, elongated neckline and accentuated chin.
The treatment is a non-invasive ‘mini-lift’, which contours the jawline, neck, and corners of the mouth, and also indirectly lifts the cheeks. The technique utilizes a series of precisely placed Botulinum toxin doses to release the downward pull on the jawline, cheek, mouth corners, and neck by a muscle known as the platysma. Best of all, there is no recovery time; there are no scars, no incisions, and no need for anaesthesia of any kind.
Throughout the day we inadvertently clench our jaw and strain our neck, making our platysma grow stronger. Over time, our body’s natural aging process (read: thinning skin and sagging tissues) compounds this muscle-tightening effect, pulling down the lower face and obscuring the jaw line. The sheet-like platysma muscle can also bunch into ridges and cause our neck muscles to protrude from our skin. These “bands” of platysma muscle can also be treated with Botox in a related procedure.
