Neck and jawline laxity
Neck laxity or loose skin on the neck and jawline, occurs when the skin and underlying muscles in the neck area lose their firmness and elasticity over time. This can result in a drooping or sagging appearance, particularly in the lower neck and jawline.
As we age, collagen and elastin production decrease, causing the skin to lose its tightness and resilience. Factors such as sun damage, genetics, and significant weight loss can also contribute to a saggy neck.
Treatment
A non-surgical neck (Nefertiti) lift is a cosmetic treatment designed to improve the appearance of the neck by reducing fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. This procedure typically involves anti-wrinkle injections to relax the platysma muscle, which is responsible for the downward pull on the lower face and neck.
By softening this muscle, the treatment creates a smoother, more lifted, and youthful-looking neck. This is a great alternative to surgical neck lifts for those seeking subtle yet effective results with minimal downtime.
The treatment is quick, usually taking around 15-20 minutes. Results typically become visible within 3-7 days and last 3-6 months, depending on individual factors.
