The neck is often neglected because we pay so much attention to our faces. But did you know that telltale signs of age also reside in the neck?
We teach you how you can look a couple of decades younger by paying some attention to your neck. Fend off wrinkles and fine lines on the neck with these treatments.
NECK LIFTING
There is nothing worse than a line-free face juxtaposed with an obviously neglected neck. With age, the skin sags and the jawline slowly disappears into the neck. Poorly defined jawlines are hallmarks of aging so it is no wonder that there are many treatment options today to help restore the sharp V-shaped jawline.
Non-invasive lifting neck lifts are actually a thing today, not surprisingly, because they DO work! Fractionated high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatments such as the 24K Chin Up target the infamous double chin without pain nor downtime. This “cold laser” (Sygmalift) treatment reaches 4.5mm beneath the skin to stimulate collagen production, resulting in a skin lifting effect over time. Alternatively, try Thermage Neck, an FDA-approved radiofrequency treatment which works to smoothen even the deepest wrinkles of the neck.
Got a party in a few weeks’ time and want to tuck away the unsightly turkey neck? Try Infinity Neck Lift, a minimally invasive threadlift procedure. Approximately 4 to 8 biodegradable threads are inserted to lift and restore the youthful contour of the jawline, sans scalpel.
SKIN TIGHTENING
For fine lines on the neck, try Fraxel Light (Lustrous Skin Program). This fractionated microlaser peel works wonders to smoothen out skin irregularities with little redness or downtime.
MAINTAINING YOUR NEW NECK
Now that you have done all that hard work, keep up the good work with an anti-aging product that works, such as retinol. One of the latest breeds of retinol products, Retinol Gold Oil, delivers retinol to the skin in a comfortable and less-irritating way. Oils are great for areas of skin with less sebaceous glands, such as the neck, and is one of the most hydrating and best skin-barrier repairing ingredients you can find.
