ANTI WRINKLE – NEFERTITI NECK LIFT

ANTI WRINKLE TREATMENT – NEFERTITI NECK LIFT

Through dynamic movement of the platysma bands, unwanted bands become visible on the neck. Using Botulinum Toxin A to help soften vertical lines on your neck, resulting in a smoother, tighter more defined jawline. Botox can be used to reduce the “pull” effect the platysma has, reducing both the visible bands and the heaviness in the jowl area.

Once treated, the muscles in the neck are more relaxed. From this, there is an upward pull from facial muscles creating a younger looking jawline and neck. The Botox neck lift is a fast acting, safe procedure that is still the first choice for many patients who are wanting to achieve a natural and more youthful appearance.

Create a younger looking jawline and neck, the effects may take up to two weeks to be seen, and typically last around 12 weeks.

    Treatment FAQ’s

    HOW DOES THE TREATMENT WORK?

    The treatment itself is non-surgical, your practitioner will administer a series of Botox injections into the jawline and platysma muscle of the neck. The Botox injections work by relaxing the muscles in the face and neck, which are responsible for pulling the face downwards. As a result the opposing muscles pull the face upwards in the opposite direction creating a lifting effect.

    The treatment ultimately tightens skin to create a taught youthful appearance.

    PREPARING FOR YOUR TREATMENT

    • One week prior to your treatment, avoid taking aspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (Ibuprofen), Gingko Biloba, Vitamin E or fish oil supplements. These agents may increase bruising and bleeding at the injection site. If you require a pain remedy during this time period, it is ok to take paracetamol.
    • Adding leafy greens to your diet will boost your Vitamin K and help to reduce the possibility of bruising and swelling.
    • Arnica supplements have been shown to reduce discomfort, bruising and swelling from injectable procedures. Arnica pills may be started the day before or the day of treatment and should be continued until bruising has resolved.
    • A topical numbing cream may be applied to help with any discomfort. This does require a longer appointment time of an additional 20 minutes for optimal results.
    • Bruising is possible and therefore, we recommend that you schedule any social plans accordingly for 7-10 days following your injection.
    • While initial effects of the injection are visible in as soon as 3-5 days, you should expect your final results to be achieved 2-3 weeks after an injection.
