Your Neck Is Giving The Game Away – Skin Tightening Can Help
When we’re looking for ways to combat signs of ageing, one area we often forget about is the neck. This is often an area that gets neglected and where signs of ageing can be more obvious.
People can undergo a wide range of skin tightening treatments to achieve a more youthful face, but it’s the neck that gives them away.
Learn more about why the neck can be a giveaway for someone trying to achieve a more youthful appearance and why neck tightening treatments can help you turn back time and give you a new lease of life.
Why Can The Neck Give The Game Away?
Sometimes we focus so much on what’s happening on our face that we forget our neck. But when it comes to tackling the signs of ageing, like lines and wrinkles, sagging skin and hyperpigmentation, the neck needs attention too.
The skin on your neck is different to the skin on your face. It is thinner and much more delicate. Not only that, but the neck is also an area of the body that moves a lot. As we twist and turn our necks, the skin gets stretched, making it more prone to wrinkles. ¹
Many people overlook their necks in their skincare routine, forgetting to apply sunscreen there. This can lead to sun damage, which in turn can lead to sunspots and wrinkles.
As we age, collagen and elastin production starts to decrease. These are the compounds that make skin look plump, smooth and youthful.
The decline of these compounds, as well as the effects of gravity, can lead to loose, sagging skin around the chin and jawline, otherwise known as jowls or ‘turkey neck.’ ²
Can Skin Tightening Treatments Help?
Loose skin around the neck may be part of the natural ageing process, but it can play havoc with someone’s confidence.
Neck tightening procedures can improve the appearance of the skin on the neck and restore self-esteem.
You may think a drastic and painful surgical solution is the only way to achieve effective neck tightening, but you’d be wrong. There are many non-invasive treatments available that deliver fantastic results without going under the knife.
Neck Tightening Treatments That Deliver
Microneedling
This non-surgical treatment uses tiny needles to make invisible micro-injuries in the skin. This triggers collagen and elastin production, giving the skin a tighter appearance. This makes it an ideal neck-tightening procedure.
HIFU
Short for High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound, HIFU uses ultrasound energy to create heat in the lower levels of the skin, stimulating collagen production.
HIFU not only tightens the skin around the neck and reduces sagging, but it is also extremely gentle, making it perfect for the delicate skin of the neck.
Skin Peels
Skin peels deliver an effective exfoliating effect to the top layers of the skin. Not only do peels boost collagen and elastin production, but their resurfacing properties can reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation caused by sun damage – something the neck is prone to.
In addition, skin peels are non-invasive and can be tailored to the needs of the individual client, depending on their skin concerns and goals.
Dermal Fillers
Believe it or not, dermal fillers are a highly effective neck-tightening treatment when administered correctly.
Dermal fillers restore the volume in the skin, which is lost as we age, particularly around the neck and jawline.
They also have a plumping and lifting effect on the skin, reducing the appearance of sagging skin, as well as lines and wrinkles.
