What you need to know before undergoing a Neck Lift (Nefertiti)
Are you interested in a firmer jawline and a smooth neck with the help of a Nefertiti neck lift? Before you undergo this popular treatment, it is important to know what you can expect. In this blog, we answer the most important questions so that you can go into the treatment well-prepared.
What is a Neck Lift (Nefertiti)?
A Nefertiti neck lift is a non-surgical treatment performed with botulinum toxin. The treatment is named after the Egyptian Queen Nefertiti, who was known for her firm jawline. By relaxing the neck muscle (platysma), the jawline can become firmer and vertical lines in the neck (neck bands) can decrease.

Who is a Nefertiti Neck Lift suitable for?
The Nefertiti neck lift is especially suitable for people suffering from a sagging jawline or visible bands in the neck. If you are looking for a way to tighten your jawline without surgical intervention, this treatment can be a good option. The treatment is ideal for people between 35 and 65 years old, but can also be effective for younger or older people, depending on skin condition.
How does the treatment proceed?
The Nefertiti neck lift treatment is quick and simple. Here is an overview of the steps:
- Consultation: Before the treatment begins, the doctor discusses your wishes and assesses the tension in your neck muscles.
- Preparation: The skin is disinfected and marked so the doctor knows exactly where the injections should be placed.
- Injections: The doctor injects small amounts of botulinum toxin into the neck muscle and, if necessary, around the mouth. This takes only a few minutes.
- Aftercare: After the treatment, you receive aftercare instructions. You can resume your daily activities immediately after the treatment.
