Overview

"Nefertiti Botox" or the "Nefertiti lift" is the popular name for this treatment, after the Egyptian queen known for her defined neck and jawline. The platysma is a thin, superficial neck muscle. When it is overactive, it pulls the tissues of the lower face downward: over time vertical platysmal bands appear, the facial contour starts to sag and the jawline loses definition. Platysma botulinum therapy reduces the muscle's excess activity, easing the downward pull so the lower face and neck look more defined. The procedure is performed by a doctor; contraindications apply.

Who it suits

  • ✅ Visible vertical neck bands when the neck is tensed
  • ✅ A sagging facial contour or undefined jawline
  • ✅ A feeling of the lower face being pulled down
  • ✅ As an add-on to fillers and device lifting of the lower face

How the procedure goes

At the consultation the doctor assesses platysma activity: you tense your neck, and the bands and injection points are marked. The skin is disinfected and the product is injected with a fine needle — the procedure takes about 15–20 minutes. You can return to normal activities straight away.

How it works

Botulinum toxin temporarily blocks nerve signals in the platysma fibres where it is injected. The muscle relaxes, its downward pull weakens, and the muscles that lift the lower face work against less resistance. Micro-doses are placed along the bands and the lower edge of the jaw; the doctor sets the points and dose at the examination.
