Named after the wife of an Egytian Pharaoh, Queen Nefertiti was far more famous than her husband, and widely known for her great beauty. Having a long neck and a well defined jawline like Nefertiti has been seen a sign of beauty and continues to be admired in modern times.
Nefertiti Lift: Am I suitable?
The Nefertiti Lift is a purely non-surgical option so if your expectations are not likely to be met then your practitioner should refer you to a more suitable treatment as this is not a 'facelift in a bottle'. Instead you might be better exploring the surgical options such as a facelift or a neck lift.
Nefertiti Lift: What's the treatment like?
To improve the definition of the jawline, 'lift' the neck and jaw area a new tecnique of placing mulitple injections of botulinum toxin (Botox) along the lower jawline as well as into the platysma (the thin sheet of muscle around the neck - it is this muscle that is constantly dragging the ageing skin on the neck downwards). Dermal fillers are then used to fill areas of fat atrophy around the jawline.
Nefertiti Lift: What about after?
Once the muscles are relaxed it causes an upward pull from the facial muscles to create a younger looking jawline, neck and face. The dermal fillers should straighten the jawline and erase the appearance of jowls.
If you want this effect to last you will need to repeat the treatment every three to four months.
Nefertiti Lift: Are there any risks or side effects?
The greatest risk is to end up with a frozen face, so it is important to have a thorough consultation and ensure that you and your practitioner understand what effect you wish to achieve.
Nefertiti Lift: What will it cost me?
The Nefertiti lift will cost from £300 to £600 depending on how strong the muscles are.
