While I’ve been getting neurotoxin injections (Botox, Dysport, etc.) regularly for about four years now to soften my fine lines, I had only ever treated my upper face, including my forehead, crow’s feet and glabellar lines. While a less common treatment area as a whole, lower face Botox (including the masseter muscles, upper lip, chin, and DAO muscles) is growing in popularity for slimming the jaw, reducing chin dimpling, and lifting the jowl region without more invasive and expensive procedures like facelifts. Facelifts have also grown in popularity in the past few years with patients of younger and younger ages, according to many plastic surgeons, so it’s only natural that non-surgical cosmetic alternatives are also surging in popularity.
While recently mindlessly scrolling through TikTok, I stumbled across a post about the viral ‘Nefertiti Lift.’ The treatment gets its name from the Egyptian Queen Nefertiti, who was known for her long neck. The trending treatment is touted as lifting the entire face, reducing the appearance of jowls, and creating a more sculpted look sans surgery by injecting neuromodulators like Botox into the lower face, neck, and, sometimes, jaw.
