Restore a Youthful Neck with a Non-Surgical Nefertiti Lift

The neck often reveals signs of aging earlier than other areas of the face. Skin laxity, horizontal lines, and prominent vertical neck bands can make the entire face appear older or less defined. While surgery such as a neck lift can offer dramatic improvement, many people prefer a subtle, noninvasive approach. The Nefertiti Lift, named after the Egyptian queen celebrated for her elegant neckline, provides a nonsurgical solution using neuromodulators like Botox to refresh and contour the neck.

At Blaine Plastic Surgery, our team offers precision-based Nefertiti Lift treatments that smooth lines, soften platysmal banding, and create a more lifted appearance without downtime. With offices in Midtown Manhattan, Huntington, and Staten Island, we provide convenient, expert care to patients across the New York metro area.

What Is a Nefertiti Lift?

The Nefertiti Lift is a cosmetic technique that uses Botox or other neuromodulators to relax targeted muscles in the neck and lower face. As certain muscles pull downward on the jawline and neck skin, relaxing them allows the opposing muscles to work more effectively, producing a lifting effect.

This treatment focuses mainly on the platysma, the thin muscle that runs vertically down the neck. When this muscle becomes tight or overactive, it creates visible neck bands and contributes to sagging skin. By injecting neuromodulators into precise points along the platysma, we can:

• Reduce the appearance of vertical neck cords
• Smooth fine lines and wrinkles
• Improve jawline definition
• Create a lifted, more youthful neck contour

Studies show that neuromodulator injections can improve neck aesthetics significantly for the right patient, with results typically lasting three to four months.

Why the Neck Ages — and How Neurotoxins Help

The neck ages for several reasons: collagen loss, thinning skin, repetitive muscle movement, and gravity. The platysma muscle becomes more pronounced over time, often described as “turkey neck” or visible banding. These changes can begin as early as the 30s and become more prominent with age.

Botox works by temporarily blocking nerve signals, reducing muscle contraction, and allowing the overlying skin to relax. This softens wrinkles and prevents the downward pull that can accentuate sagging. When administered strategically along the jawline, it can also lift the lower face — a dual benefit many patients appreciate.

According to national aesthetic data, Botox remains the most popular nonsurgical cosmetic treatment, with over 10 million procedures performed each year. Its safety profile and predictable results make it an excellent option for neck rejuvenation.

Benefits of a Nonsurgical Nefertiti Lift

Patients choose this treatment because it offers noticeable improvement without the commitment of surgery.

Benefits include:

• No incisions or scarring
• Minimal discomfort
• No downtime — return to work immediately
• Softening of neck lines and platysmal bands
• Subtle lifting effect for improved contour
• Suitable for many skin types and ages

It’s also a great option for patients who are not yet ready for a surgical neck lift or who want a temporary refresh before a major event.

Customized Treatment at Blaine Plastic Surgery

A successful Nefertiti Lift depends on a detailed understanding of facial and neck anatomy. Dr. Christine Blaine at Blaine Plastic Surgery carefully evaluates each patient’s unique muscle activity and skin condition before developing a personalized treatment plan.

Your treatment session typically takes 15–20 minutes, with results appearing gradually over the next 7–14 days. Many patients choose to combine the Nefertiti Lift with complementary treatments such as dermal fillers, skin tightening, or medical-grade skincare to enhance results further.
