Compared to other areas of the body, the skin around the neck is thinner and more fragile. It produces fewer natural oils that protect it from premature thinning and has less collagen or the protein gives the skin strength and structure. This is the reason why it tends to age faster than almost any area of the body. Here are the common signs of aging on the neck and what you can do to improve or address them.
Fine lines and brown spots
The neck area is one of the most commonly neglected areas when applying skincare, including sunscreen. Prolonged and unprotected sun exposure can also cause the collagen to break down, as well as contribute to the development of pigment changes or brown spots, wrinkles, and thinning skin.
What you can do: Make it a habit to apply broad-spectrum sunscreen to your neck daily and reapply if you’re out in the sun. An anti-aging serum like Dr. Sylvia’s 24k Gold Neck Protect.
Loose or sagging skin
Collagen and elastin break down over time, resulting in sagging skin along the jaw, neck, and upper chest. This, along with aging, reduces the skin’s ability to snap back like it used to. Turkey neck is the term used to describe saggy or wrinkled skin on the neck.
What you can do: Sunscreen and moisturizer are a must, as well as a cream or serum that has peptides and antioxidants. If you are already concerned about loose skin, micro-focused ultrasound with visualization (MFU-V) can help. It delivers heat to the deeper layers to stimulate collagen and tightening of the skin.
