At The K Spa in Buckhead, Atlanta, we offer the Nefertiti Lift as a refined, physician-led alternative to surgical neck lifts. This non-invasive injectable treatment restores youthful contours to the jawline and neck using Botox® or Dysport®—strategically placed along key muscle groups for a subtle lifting effect. The procedure is overseen by Dr. Benjamin C. Stong, a dual board-certified facial plastic surgeon with advanced fellowship training under Dr. Andrew Jacono, and one of the few specialists in the Atlanta area to hold certifications in both Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Otolaryngology.
Pleasant experience…I have been getting Botox with Dr Stong and lasers and chemical peels with their aesthetics nurse for sometime now. Results are excellent and my skin looks fabulous. I highly recommend Dr Stong and his knowledgeable staff!

How the Nefertiti Lift Works
The Nefertiti Lift targets the platysma muscle—the thin sheet that pulls downward on the jaw and neck. By administering neuromodulators in this area, Dr. Stong weakens the muscle’s pull, allowing upper facial muscles to naturally lift and contour the lower face. The result is a tighter, more defined jawline with softened neck bands and diminished jowls.
This technique was originally developed by Swiss dermatologist Dr. Phillip Levy, but its success depends on expert application. Dr. Stong’s background in facial surgery ensures precise dosing and placement to avoid the overdone or ineffective results common in less experienced hands.
Ideal Candidates for the Nefertiti Lift
The Nefertiti Lift is not a one-size-fits-all procedure. You may be a good candidate if you have:
- Mild to moderate jowls or sagging skin
- Vertical neck bands or early signs of a “turkey neck”
- Minimal excess fat along the jawline
- A square or undefined jaw that appears heavier with age
- A desire to avoid or postpone surgery
Dr. Stong will give you an honest evaluation and will never recommend the Nefertiti Lift if another treatment—surgical or non-surgical—would better suit your needs.

What to Expect at Your Appointment
During your private consultation at The K Spa, you’ll undergo a thorough assessment including:
- Jawline structure and muscle movement analysis
- Skin elasticity and fat distribution
- Facial proportions and aesthetic goals
Dr. Stong will determine whether the Nefertiti Lift alone is appropriate or whether combining it with dermal fillers, skin tightening treatments, or laser rejuvenation would yield better results. Every plan is tailored to your individual facial anatomy, lifestyle, and preferences.
Treatments typically take 20 to 30 minutes, with no general anesthesia or incisions. Most patients resume their daily routines immediately. Results develop within 3–7 days and last up to 4 months, depending on skin condition and muscle activity.
