The neck is notoriously one of the first places in our bodies to exhibit the signs of ageing. A youthful neck is the holy grail of positive ageing. The Nefertiti Neck Lift (so named after the famous Egyptian Queen Nefertiti with her elegant swan-like neck) is a procedure that effectively lifts the corners of the mouth and defines the jawline. It achieves this by altering the balance of muscles in the neck and jawline area. The effects of the ageing process include skin losing its elasticity, plumpness and firmness; gravity begins to pull our facial muscles down.

The bands in the neck can be treated with Botulinum Toxin to relax the platysma muscle and smoothen out the bands. The Nefertiti Neck lift is a technique whereby small amounts of Botulinum Toxin are placed along the jawline to relax the upper platysma, which pulls down on the jawline area.

This procedure does not take long to do and lasts around 3-6 months.
