Nefertiti Lift in Maryland

Reclaim a smoother, more defined jawline and elegant neck without surgery.

Sculpted Definition with a Subtle Touch

Inspired by the refined profile of Queen Nefertiti, the Nefertiti Lift is a non-surgical neuromodulator technique that softens downward pull along the lower face and neck. By carefully relaxing the platysma bands and the depressor anguli oris (DAO) at and just below the mandibular border, Dr. Guy Cappuccino can refine early jowling, enhance jawline definition, and create a graceful, lifted look, all with minimal downtime. As a board-certified plastic surgeon serving Mount Airy and Frederick since 2008, Dr. Cappuccino is known for meticulous technique, natural results, and a patient-first approach.

What Is the Nefertiti Lift?

The Nefertiti Lift uses precise injections of botulinum toxin (commonly known as BOTOX®) along the jawline and neck to reduce the downward pull of the platysma muscle and DAOs. When these muscles relax, the lower face appears smoother and the jawline looks more defined, providing a subtle lifting effect without incisions or anesthesia.

Benefits of a Nefertiti Lift

Smoother Neck Contour: Relaxing platysmal bands softens neck lines and creates a more graceful contour.
Refined Jawline: Targeting the DAOs and platysma reduces early jowling for a crisper mandibular border.
No Surgery, Little Downtime: Quick in-office treatment fits easily into a busy schedule with minimal recovery.
Natural-Looking Improvement: Carefully dosed injections refresh your profile without looking overdone.
Customizable Over Time: Results can be fine-tuned at follow-up visits to match your evolving goals.

Is the Nefertiti Lift Right for Me?

You may be a good candidate if you notice early jowling, visible neck bands, or a downward pull at the mouth corners, and prefer a non-surgical approach. Ideal candidates have reasonable skin elasticity and understand that neuromodulators lift by reducing opposing muscle pull (not by removing skin). If you have significant skin laxity or heavier tissue along the jawline, Dr. Cappuccino may recommend complementary options such as skin tightening, fillers for structural support, or a surgical facelift/neck lift for more definitive improvement.

Your Treatment with Dr. Cappuccino: What to Expect

Consultation

We assess facial dynamics, skin quality, and goals, then map injection points along the DAO, mandibular border, and platysmal bands.

Treatment

After cleansing, small injections are placed using a meticulous technique to relax the targeted muscles while preserving natural expression. Most visits take 15–30 minutes.

Aftercare

You can return to normal activity immediately; avoid strenuous exercise, massaging the area, and alcohol the day of treatment. Minor redness or pinpoint bruising can occur and typically resolves quickly.

Results & Longevity

Early smoothing is often noticed within 3 to 5 days, with peak results around 7 to 10 days. Improvements typically last 3 to 6 months, depending on your metabolism, dosing, and muscle activity. Maintenance sessions keep your results consistent and can be adjusted over time for precision.

Cost of a Nefertiti Lift in Maryland

Pricing varies by individual anatomy and the number of neuromodulator units used. As a general reference, treatments typically range from $200 to $800 per session. You’ll receive a personalized quote during your consultation.

Safety & Side Effects

The Nefertiti Lift is generally well tolerated. Temporary effects can include mild bruising at injection sites, transient neck or lower-face weakness in the treated muscles, and occasional headache. As with any injectable treatment, rare risks will be discussed in detail before your procedure. Always inform us beforehand about medical conditions, allergies, and medications (including blood thinners).

How many units will I need?

Dosing depends on muscle strength and your goals. Many patients need a combination of units across the DAOs and platysma bands; your plan will be customized during your consultation.

When will I see results, and how long will they last?

Most patients notice improvement within 7–10 days, with results lasting about 3–6 months before a maintenance visit is recommended.

Will this replace a facelift or neck lift?

No. Neuromodulators relax muscle pull but do not remove excess skin. Surgical options may be more appropriate for more advanced laxity or heavier jowling.

Can I combine this with other treatments?

Yes. Many patients pair a Nefertiti Lift with chin/jawline fillers, skin tightening, or skin quality treatments to enhance definition and texture.

What are the side effects and downtime?

Most people resume normal activities immediately. Temporary redness, swelling, or bruising can occur; serious side effects are rare and will be reviewed during your visit.
