Nefertiti Lift

What is Nefertiti Lift procedure?

The Nefertiti Lift is a procedure using relaxing injections to the neck area to achieve a better jawline, reduce the appearance of the Jowls and reduce the "stringy" appearance of the neck. It involves painless injections of Botulinum Toxin into a sheet of muscle called the platisma. The platisma is closely attached onto the skin of the neck, wraps around the neck and down to the upper chest area. When it contracts, it has a downward pull on the lower face and jowls, can create the horizontal wrinkles down the neck, and can take a "stringy" appearance, especially in lean people. Relaxing the platisma allows the facial muscles to better "lift" without the opposing downward force of the platisma. The best candidates are able to tense their neck on demand (assessed with the assistance of your practitioner), and do not carry large amounts of sub mental fat (double chin) although even those candidates sometimes get impressive results.
