Inspired by the OG icon of snatched jawlines, Queen Nefertiti, this non-surgical tweakment is here to give your neck and jaw that elongated, sculpted look straight out of an ancient Egyptian portrait (or, at least, your IG feed). Named after the legendary queen renowned for her sharp jawline and long, graceful neck, the Nefertiti Lift is all about creating a more youthful, elegant profile. While skincare and contouring can help, this treatment goes a step further by redefining your features without the need for surgery. Amy Peterson, Miami’s go-to aesthetic expert, has seen this treatment take off in popularity. “Our lifestyles have changed, and with these changes comes accelerated signs of aging in certain areas of the face and body,” Peterson explains. “Whereas the eyes used to be the biggest area of concern for most of my patients, it’s now become the jawline and neck, due in part to ‘tech neck’ — the effects of gravity from us constantly looking down at our mobile phones.” Photo Credit: Skincare by Amy Peterson So, What’s the Nefertiti Lift? This treatment uses strategically placed Botox (yes, Botox!) to relax the platysma —  those vertical bands that pop out when you flex your neck — allowing them to elongate and strengthen. The result? A sleeker, longer-looking neck and a more defined jawline without surgery. Even better, since the platysma is relaxed, the muscles in your upper face can pull upwards more freely, giving your entire profile a subtle, natural-looking lift. No filters needed. The treatment is customized to each patient’s facial structure, ensuring a natural lift that enhances rather than alters. It’s a great option for those looking to refine their look without committing to invasive procedures. The Lowdown: What to Expect The procedure typically requires 4-7 injections on either side of the neck, making it a quick and easy way to achieve a more refined look. According to Peterson, “The Nefertiti Lift has quickly become an in-demand, results-driven non-surgical solution due to its effectiveness and minimal downtime. It’s an easy procedure to do as the downtime is not longer than 24 hours.” This means you can pop in on your lunch break and still make it to happy hour. The results last around 3-4 months before requiring a touch-up, making it a long-lasting and convenient option. Beyond sculpting the jawline and neck, this treatment also lifts the corners of the mouth and smooths out frown lines, ensuring that every angle of your face looks effortlessly defined. For those seeking additional jawline enhancement, Sofwave — a next-generation ultrasound skin-tightening treatment — can be paired with the Nefertiti Lift for even more definition. Sofwave works by stimulating collagen production deep within the skin, resulting in firmer, lifted contours. Another trending aesthetic tweakment is TrapTox, which involves injecting Botox into the trapezius muscles, basically the super strong muscle in the shoulder girdle. While Botox is traditionally used for smoothing wrinkles, this off-label use relaxes the upper back and shoulder muscles, creating the illusion of a longer, more elegant neckline. The added benefit? It can also help alleviate tension and discomfort caused by stress or poor posture. Queen Nefertiti and her famous neck The Verdict? A Royal Yes For anyone looking to elevate their jawline game without going under the knife, the Nefertiti Lift is the ultimate power move. It’s quick, effective, and (let’s be honest) totally worth it if you want to look effortlessly sculpted in every selfie. So, are you ready to channel your inner Egyptian queen? Because Nefertiti didn’t have FaceTune, and she still slayed.
