Platysma Banding (Turkey neck)

Service Description

The Nefertiti Neck Lift uses botulinum toxin type A to target the platysma muscles in the neck and lower jawline. Overactive platysma muscles can create vertical neck bands, sagging jowls, and loss of jawline definition. By relaxing these muscles, the jawline appears smoother, lifted, and more contoured, creating a refined, elegant lower face and neck profile without surgery. This treatment is ideal for clients noticing jawline softening, vertical neck bands, or early signs of neck aging, and for those seeking a subtle, natural lift that enhances overall facial balance. At Aisha Khayat Aesthetics, I use Azzalure®, a prescription-only botulinum toxin, chosen for its predictable, safe, and refined results when administered with precise anatomical expertise. Consultation & Prescription A full medical consultation is required before treatment. I will assess neck and jawline anatomy, muscle activity, and your aesthetic goals, alongside reviewing your medical history. The procedure is performed only if clinically appropriate, ensuring safe, tailored results. Treatment Experience The procedure takes 10–20 minutes. Ultra-fine needles deliver small, precise doses along the lower jawline and platysma bands. Discomfort is minimal and brief. Most clients resume normal activities immediately, with no downtime required. Results Initial effects may be noticed within 3–5 days, with full results developing over 10–14 days. Results typically last 3–4 months, depending on muscle activity. The treatment softens neck bands, improves jawline definition, and provides a subtle lift for a rejuvenated, natural appearance — never “frozen” or unnatural. Pre- & Post-Treatment Guidance Avoid alcohol for 24 hours prior to treatment Avoid anti-inflammatory medications or supplements such as fish oil or vitamin E for several days beforehand After treatment, avoid rubbing, massaging, or strenuous neck/jaw activity for 24–48 hours You will receive full aftercare instructions and have direct access to me post-procedure. A two-week review appointment is offered if refinement is needed.
