The Nefertiti Lift is a popular non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses Botox injections to rejuvenate the lower face and neck. Named after the ancient Egyptian Queen Nefertiti, known for her long, slender neck and beautifully sculpted jawline, this treatment targets sagging skin and vertical neck bands caused by overactive platysma muscles. The Nefertiti Lift uses Botox to reduce muscle contraction in the neck and jawline area, helping to redefine facial contours and restore a more youthful appearance.
At our Chiswick Clinic, the Nefertiti Lift is delivered with precision and care. This minimally invasive procedure is ideal for those looking to avoid invasive cosmetic surgery while addressing early signs of ageing in the neck and jawline. With little to no downtime, patients can return to their daily activities quickly, making it an effective and convenient treatment option for those with busy lifestyles.

The Nefertiti Lift uses Botox injections to relax the platysma muscle, which extends from the collarbone to the jawline. This muscle can become hyperactive with age, leading to neck bands and a downward pull on the lower face. By targeting the platysma, the Nefertiti Lift can help reduce these issues, resulting in a subtle lift of the neck and jawline and a more defined facial contour. The lift is a non-surgical and minimally invasive treatment that rejuvenates the lower face or neck without the risks of surgery.
This lift is named after the ancient Egyptian Queen Nefertiti, celebrated for her elegant neck and sharp jawline. The Nefertiti Lift Botox treatment aims to recreate that same sculpted, graceful look by addressing common signs of ageing around the neck and jawline area.
The Nefertiti Lift procedure that uses Botox injections begins with a thorough consultation to assess your facial anatomy and identify the specific pattern of platysma muscle activity. Dr. Bela then injects Botox at carefully selected points along the muscle. These injections relax the neck muscles, reduce the appearance of neck bands, and lift the jawline. The number of units used will vary based on the patient’s muscle strength and treatment goals.
The effects of the Nefertiti Lift typically become visible within a few days, with full results seen at 2–3 weeks. The lift can help define the jawline, soften the appearance of jowls, and smooth the skin around the neck. The results of a Nefertiti Lift are natural-looking and long-lasting, especially when combined with other facial treatments. While not a substitute for a surgical lift, the Nefertiti Lift is a non-surgical, safe and effective alternative for patients seeking rejuvenation without the invasiveness of surgery.
A good candidate for a Nefertiti Lift is someone experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity, neck bands, or a saggy neck due to ageing. It is ideal for patients looking for a non-surgical facelift in Chiswick. The lift is especially suitable for those not ready for invasive procedures but still wish to achieve a more youthful, defined jawline. Thin neck or turkey neck appearance, along with platysmal banding, are common indications for this cosmetic treatment.
With over 15 years of experience in Botox treatments, Dr. Bela’s expert understanding of facial muscles and anatomy ensures safe and precise application. During consultation, patients are asked to activate the platysma muscle by tensing their neck, allowing for an accurate assessment of the muscle pattern. Dr. Bela’s personalised treatment plan targets the platysma at the right depth and angle, ensuring maximum effect while minimising side effects of the Nefertiti Lift, such as bruising.
This careful approach means that the Nefertiti Lift can be performed with minimal discomfort and delivers a lifting effect across the jawline and neck without compromising natural facial expression. His skill in combining the lift with other treatments, such as chin Botox or lower face rejuvenation, also allows for a comprehensive approach to facial aesthetics.
Over the years, Dr. Bela has identified multiple melanomas on aesthetic patients—often in areas they hadn’t noticed themselves. In one notable case, during a Botox consultation, he spotted a small but suspicious lesion on a patient’s forehead. When reviewing previous treatment photos, it became clear that the melanoma had gradually developed over time, becoming increasingly visible across sessions. Despite its small size, the lesion was already an early invasive melanoma—but was thankfully detected in time. This case is just one of several examples highlighting how melanoma can remain hidden in plain sight. For this reason, Dr. Bela now offers a discounted mole check for all existing aesthetic patients, making it easier to combine cosmetic care with life-saving early detection.
All Nefertiti Lift treatments at Chiswick Clinic are carried out by Dr. Bela, a highly experienced dermatologist with advanced knowledge of facial anatomy and over 15 years of cosmetic expertise.
