Queen Nefertiti of Egypt was famed for her sleek, swanlike neck—a sophistication immortalized in a ceramic bust for all the world to admire. Today, many modern women aspire to achieve this sculpted profile through surgery or skin-tightening procedures.
But there’s actually a minimally invasive treatment option that calls for zero downtime. With what’s often known as the Nefertiti lift, the expert injectors at Hermann Aesthetics & Wellness can strategically place a series of neurotoxin injections to address mild sagging and establish a more striking neck and jawline.

How Botox Works
Botox injections use purified botulinum toxin to disrupt communication between your nerves and the underlying muscles.
When our master injectors administer a dose of Botox into an overactive muscle, the neurotoxin blocks the usual nerve impulses that would trigger muscle movement with your facial expressions.
By gently relaxing the muscle, we make it less likely to contract and form wrinkles or creases in the skin above. Our award-winning injectors can artfully place your injections to temporarily ease targeted muscular activity without obscuring your emotions—or your natural beauty. Subtle changes can soften and smooth signs of aging, revealing a more youthful, refreshed look.
How We Determine Whether Botox Is Right for You
Before a Botox Nefertiti lift, you sit down with one of our highly trained providers for a consultation. During this conversation, your provider listens as you share your treatment goals and medical history. Then, we evaluate your skin, jawline, and neck to gain a better understanding of your concerns.
Your injector may advise alternative treatments if you are:
- Pregnant or breastfeeding
- Living with conditions like glaucoma, heart disease, diabetes, epilepsy, or a muscle/nerve disorder
- Prone to trouble swallowing or breathing
- Experiencing an infection near the injection site
Once your provider determines that Botox injections could support the desired refinements in your neck and jawline, we can often move forward with treatment the same day.
Refining the Lower Face
Your provider begins your treatment by cleaning the skin and marking the injection sites. To achieve the Nefertiti lift, your skilled injector administers a series of injections around the neck, chin, and jaw, targeting and relaxing the platysma muscle.
The platysma is responsible for much of the movement we see in the lower face, as it enables us to frown, smile, chew, and express surprise. By relaxing this muscle, we can reduce the downward pull of an overactive platysma, thereby reducing the appearance of sagging jowls and platysmal banding on the neck.
Many patients enjoy how a Botox Nefertiti lift in St. Petersburg establishes lasting definition and structure without adding volume, yielding a subtle, natural-looking slope. For some, a more graceful, slender neck and jawline does more than enhance their profile—it improves their daily confidence.
