Learn more about the Nefertiti neck lift Kelowna, including the procedure and benefits below.
What is a Nefertiti Neck Lift?
A Nefertiti neck lift is a nonsurgical neck treatment that uses Botox in Kelowna to relax the neck bands and define your jawline. This treatment creates a more feminine and thinner-looking neck. The Nefertiti lift targets the platysma muscle band that runs vertically from the jawline along the neck. Our Botox specialists at Cerulean Medical Institute will inject Botox into the neck or platysma muscle to diminish lines around the lower face, smooth dimples on the chin, reduce skin folds and jowls, minimize sagging in the lower face and create a more defined jawline.
What is Botox?
Kelowna Botox is an injectable treatment that uses purified botulinum toxin to relax overly contracted muscles, minimizing the formation of fine lines and neck wrinkles. When Botox is injected into the neck and jawline during a Nefertiti neck lift, it softens neck wrinkles, platysmal banding and jowling. This can cause the neck to appear smoother, slimmer, less tense and the jawline to be more contoured.
Why is the Procedure Called a Nefertiti Neck Lift?
The procedure name โNefertiti neck liftโ references the ancient Egyptian Queen Nefertiti because she was known for her thin, elongated neckline. Nefertiti is universally known as an icon of beauty because of her elegant and defined neck and jawline. The Nefertiti neck lift offers a beautiful and natural enhancement to your appearance.
Nefertiti Neck Lift Procedure
A Nefertiti neck lift begins with a consultation with Dr. Chetty, where you will discuss your cosmetic goals. Dr. Chetty will review your medical history and the procedure process. During your treatment, our Kelowna Botox specialists will use a small needle to precisely inject Botox into the muscle band along your lower face, jaw, and neck. Your Botox treatment will last 15-20 minutes.
Benefits of a Nefertiti Neck Lift
A Nefertiti neck lift can help with jawline definition and an improved appearance of prominent neck bands. This treatment is short, effective, and less invasive than surgical neck treatments.
