Here’s What You Need To Know About Skincare Treatments For Your Neck And Décolleté

Signs of skin aging don’t always first appear where you think it will. For many, your hands and neck can be among the first places that you will notice visible signs of skin aging.

Causes can include everything from less-than-ideal genetics to inadequate sun protection, even sleep positions! What’s more, even just the passage of time can work against us; “‘as we age, our skin loses water and collagen content, and as a result, it becomes drier and less firm’” as explained by plastic surgeon Jorge L. Menedez, MD on NewBeauty.com. That dry skin can be one of the leading causes of unwanted lines and wrinkles in this often highly visible area.

However, there is plenty you can do to help maintain a healthy, glowing neck and décolleté area which may involve re-examining your beauty regimen and lifestyle habits. 

That said, many are going one step further and exploring the trendy neck frontier of neck and décolleté skin treatments. Let’s review some FAQs and get some answers.

And since it’s the season of Thanksgiving, let’s touch on 5 lifestyle tips to help address that turkey neck, just for good measure!

  1. Be wary of "tech-neck:" You may be caught contorting your neck to look down at your phone while sitting or lying down, which can cause unwanted lines and wrinkles in your neck (not to mention aches and pains under the skin). Hold your phone, tablet, or other tech device at or above eye level to give your neck a break.
  2. Try facial yoga: Regularly stretching and flexing the muscles in your face and neck area - without overdoing it! - can help keep the muscles under the skin in this area taut and firm.
  3. Update your daily beauty regimen with anti-aging skincare designed for your neck and décolleté. Remember that the skin on your décolleté is more like the skin on your eyelids - very thin and delicate - so it’s important to use skincare specifically designed to treat this type of skin.
  4. Stay hydrated: Your neck has fewer oil glands than the skin on your face, so it is more likely to get dry which can lead to wrinkles. Get yourself a hydrating, peptide-rich moisturizer and apply liberally. Drinking water daily will also help!
  5. Cover up and protect your skin to prevent signs of skin aging in the first place. When you are flaunting your décolleté, be sure you are applying a broad spectrum SPF designed to protect you from both UVA and UVB rays. But also, turtlenecks are your friend. Don’t be afraid to cover up with fashionable scarves or higher necklines if you’re seeing signs of aging in this area to help prevent further damage.
