Targeted anti-wrinkle injections to relax the platysma bands and refine the neck and jawline — without surgery.
Named after Queen Nefertiti, known for her elegant neck and jawline, this non-surgical treatment uses targeted anti-wrinkle injections to relax the downward-pulling fibres of the platysma muscle.
It may help reduce the appearance of neck lines and improve jawline contour, depending on anatomy, skin quality and suitability.
Temporary effects: results may last around 3–6 months and vary between individuals.
A precise amount of anti-wrinkle injection is placed into the platysma bands along the lower jawline and neck. Relaxing these bands may reduce their pull on the lower face.
Treatment usually involves minimal downtime. Changes develop over several days to around two weeks, and recovery and results vary.
By relaxing the downward-pulling bands, the treatment may reduce their tethering effect on the lower face, leading to a smoother-looking neck and a more defined jawline contour.
In contrast, jawline fillers are typically hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers used to add or restore volume and improve jawline contour and definition.
Many patients are able to return to normal daily activities shortly after treatment, although recovery varies.
Your practitioner will provide individual aftercare instructions, which may include avoiding rubbing or applying pressure to the treated area and temporarily avoiding strenuous activity.
The degree and duration of improvement vary between patients, and further treatment may be considered following clinical reassessment.
