WHAT IS NEFERTITI NECK LIFT?
The Nefertiti neck lift can address a number of concerns around the lower face and neck, including: jowls, sagging skin around the neck and wrinkles known as neck bands. These conditions can contribute to the development of an aged look that many people can feel unhappy with. This particular treatment helps to restore a more youthful appearance by lifting and tightening the skin, as well as rebalancing the underlying muscles, to help redefine the contouring of the neck and jawline.
THE TREATMENT PROCESS
Also known as the ‘BOTOX neck lift’ this procedure can be thought of as the non-surgical alternative to a surgical lower face and neck lift. BOTOX is the brand name for injectable botulinum toxin, and is widely used in aesthetics clinics as ‘anti-wrinkle injections’.
The Nefertiti neck lift entails a series of anti-wrinkle injections being administered directly into the jawline and the platysma muscles (found on each side of the neck). The toxin will work to relax the muscles and soften the movements of the jaw and neck.
AFTERCARE AND RESULTS
The Nefertiti neck lift is a comfortable treatment that seldom causes significant downtime. Its outcome will often be noticeable very soon after the procedure, and results can last for up to 6 months. By relieving muscle movements and contractions, the skin will look smoother and younger as wrinkles and folds in the skin fade.
At The Facebible we will advise that following this treatment, you take care to avoid: strenuous exercise for up to 24 hours, lying down (sleeping propped up can also help), massaging the area and hot showers or baths for up to 6 hours.
Faqs
This procedure may be suitable for those who are concerned with the effects of ageing around the jaw and on the neck. The results may be more successful in people who still have a good amount of elasticity in their skin. Following an in-depth consultation, the experts at The Facebible will only recommend a treatment to someone who is regarded as suitable. Therefore if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have an active infection or skin disorder and / or may not be compatible with botulinum toxin, this treatment will not be suggested for you.
Botulinum toxin is very effective when used for improving certain wrinkle-related concerns, and is often regarded as the ‘gold standard’ for anti-ageing. We ensure that administering this FDA approved product is carried out by highly trained professionals.
The needles that are used to administer botulinum toxin are very fine, ensuring that the treatment is as comfortable as it possibly can be. We are able to apply a numbing cream to the treatment area, 20 – 30 minutes in advance, to help further alleviate any potential discomfort.
An injectable procedure will usually lead to redness, swelling and bruising at the site of treatment. You should expect for these effects to settle after 24 hours, with bruising disappearing within a few days. It is possible that flu-like symptoms, headaches and weakness in the neck could be experienced but these side effects are rare. You can discuss any concerns with the clinic at any time.
One or two sessions will usually achieve the result you expect. To maintain a youthful look of the lower face and neck, will often require repeated treatments every 4 – 6 months.
