Create a More Elegant Neckline

The Nefertiti Lift in Yonkers is a Botox treatment that creates a smoother, more defined jawline and neck without surgery or downtime. By strategically relaxing the platysma muscles that pull the lower face downward, this treatment can subtly lift the jawline, soften neck bands, and improve facial balance. It’s one of those “you look refreshed” treatments that delivers elegant, natural-looking results without making you look dramatically different.

What is a Nefertiti Lift?

Named after the ancient Egyptian Queen Nefertiti, celebrated for her smooth neck and sculpted jawline, the Nefertiti Lift is a non-surgical aesthetic treatment using neurotoxins like Botox®, Dysport®, Xeomin®, or Jeuveau® to refine, lift, and smooth the lower face and neck.

As we age, a thin sheet of muscle in the neck called the platysma contracts continuously, pulling down the lower face. This constant downward tension causes:

  • Early jawline sagging (jowling)
  • Loss of a crisp, defined jawline contour
  • Prominent vertical neck bands (platysmal bands)
  • A downturned appearance around the mouth

What Are the Benefits of The Nefertiti Lift?

One of the biggest reasons people love The Nefertiti Lift is how subtle yet impactful it can be. This treatment is curated to refresh and refine the lower face and neck area without surgery, lengthy downtime, or dramatic changes. Benefits include:

  • A more sculpted-looking jawline
  • Softer and smoother neck bands
  • A subtly lifted lower face appearance
  • Natural-looking results without looking “done”
  • Minimal downtime after treatment
  • Improved facial balance and definition
  • Non-surgical rejuvenation with Botox

What Happens During The Nefertiti Lift Treatment?

Your provider starts by assessing the movement of the platysma muscle, the thin muscle that runs along the neck and can pull the lower face downward over time. While you animate, speak, or clench slightly, specific injection points are mapped along the jawline and upper platysmal bands to determine where Botox will create the most balanced, natural-looking lift.

Using a very fine needle, small units of Botox are injected into targeted portions of the platysma muscle near the mandibular border and lateral neck. Relaxing these downward-pulling fibers helps soften neck banding, reduce lower-face tension, and sharpen jawline definition. The treatment itself is quick, minimally invasive, and requires little to no downtime afterward.

Is The Nefertiti Lift Safe?

Yes, when performed by trained medical providers, The Nefertiti Lift in Yonkers is a safe and well-tolerated Botox treatment. At prosperAESTHETICS®, we take a conservative, precision-focused approach to help minimize risks while creating natural-looking results. Mild swelling, redness, or tenderness at the injection sites can happen temporarily, but serious complications are uncommon with proper technique and thoughtful placement.

How Many Units of Botox Are Needed for a Nefertiti Lift?

Because every neck and jawline is unique, there isn’t a single "one-size-fits-all" dose. On average, a Nefertiti Lift typically requires 20 to 50 units of Botox (or the equivalent dose in Dysport®, Xeomin®, or Jeuveau®).

The exact number of units you will need depends on several individual factors:

  • Platysmal Band Strength: Stronger, thicker muscle bands require more units to fully relax and smooth out.
  • Lower Face Anatomy: Extending treatment further along the jawline to address early jowling or lower-face pull often requires additional targeted injection points.
  • Desired Definition: Subtle softening requires a conservative dose, whereas stronger muscle contraction may call for the higher end of the range.

How Much Does a Nefertiti Lift Cost?

Rather than charging a flat, generic rate, your treatment is priced per unit based on your customized treatment plan. During your initial consultation, your provider will evaluate your lower face and neck movement to give you an exact unit count and total price before beginning treatment.

The Nefertiti Lift Frequently Asked Questions

How long does The Nefertiti Lift last?

Most clients enjoy results for about three to four months, although this can vary depending on your metabolism, muscle strength, and how expressive your lower face and neck muscles are naturally. Clients who stay consistent with maintenance appointments often notice smoother, longer-lasting results over time because the platysma muscle becomes less dominant.

When will I start seeing results?

You will not walk out of your appointment with an instantly snatched jawline, and that is part of why we love Botox treatments like this. The results build gradually and naturally. Most clients begin noticing softening and improved definition within several days, with full results typically visible around two weeks after treatment.

Will I still look natural?

Absolutely. At prosperAESTHETICS®, natural-looking results are the goal. The Nefertiti Lift is carefully curated to subtly relax downward-pulling neck muscles without freezing your face or making you look overly tight. You should still look like yourself, just more lifted and refined.

Is The Nefertiti Lift painful?

Most clients are surprised by how quick and tolerable the treatment is. The injections use a very fine needle and feel like tiny pinches that last only seconds. The neck area can be sensitive in certain spots, but the procedure is generally very manageable and does not require downtime.

Are there any risks with The Nefertiti Lift?

Like any injectable treatment, there are potential risks, although serious complications are rare when performed by experienced medical providers. Temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising at the injection sites can happen. In rare cases, over-relaxation of nearby muscles may temporarily affect certain neck movements or create a feeling of heaviness. This is why precise placement and conservative dosing matter so much.

Can The Nefertiti Lift replace a surgical neck lift?

Not exactly. The Nefertiti Lift works best for mild-to-moderate jawline softening, early neck banding, and subtle lower-face heaviness. It cannot remove excess skin or create the same dramatic changes as surgery. Think of it more as a refined, prevention-focused treatment that helps restore definition while keeping everything looking soft, elegant, and natural.
