Nefertiti Neck Lift: Appointment and Procedure Guidelines
The Nefertiti lift is a cosmetic procedure performed with botulinum toxin injections in the lower part of your jaw and neck combined with Radio Frequency Microneedling, Diamond Polar skin tightening, and a peptide mask. The Nefertiti lift restores a youthful look without surgery.
The procedure's name refers to the ancient Egyptian Queen Nefertiti, remembered for her elongated, thin neck. The Nefertiti lift targets the platysma band of muscles, which run vertically from the bottom of the face to the collarbone.
RF Microneedling and Diamond Polar tighten sagging skin and aids in the formation of new collagen and elastin.
This procedure takes place over 14 weeks with four appointments. Results are seen in a few short weeks and continue improving over several weeks.
There will be some mild redness after RF Microneedling that lasts for several hours. You may return to normal activities the next day, including wearing make-up.
The first visit consists of a consult and the initial injection of botulinum toxin into specific parts of this muscle, lessening lines, smoothing wrinkles and folds, and decreasing sagging in the lower face.
The second visit must be at least 48 hours after the initial appointment. At this time, you receive the first in the series of RF Microneedling and DiamondPolar Neck contouring treatments, followed by a nourishing peptide mask.
You will take home FREE ZO Growth Factor Serum for at-home care (value $150.00), which you should continue to use regularly at home throughout the process.
After three weeks, you will return for your third visit for your second RF Microneedling and Diamond Polar tightening treatments followed by a peptide mask.
After an additional three weeks, you may schedule your fourth and final appointment to receive the last skin tightening treatments.
Collagen and elastin formation continue over the next several weeks. RF Microneedling and DiamondPolar induced collagen and elastin can be permanent. However, they do not "cure" the underlying condition: aging, hormones, environment, sun, toxins, free radicals, etc.
Microneedling removes the visible "manifestations" caused by the underlying condition.
How fast they reappear depends on how severe the original condition is and how well you take care of your skin. You may require a touch-up annually, and your provider will discuss this further at the time of your consult.
This treatment is also available without botulinum toxin injections.
