Introduction

When it comes to skincare, most of the attention tends to focus on the face, but your neck and décolleté deserve just as much care. These delicate areas are often the first to show visible signs of aging due to their thinner skin, frequent movement, and exposure to environmental stressors.

Medical-grade skincare is the foundation for maintaining long-term skin health, especially in areas like the neck that are more delicate and often overlooked. The better your at-home routine, the more effective your in-office treatments will be.”

Unlike the face, the neck has fewer oil glands and thinner skin, making it more vulnerable to dryness, fine lines, crepiness, and sagging. Crepiness refers to a texture that looks thin and wrinkled, similar to crepe paper and is often caused by a breakdown in collagen and elastin.

Add in daily sun exposure and repetitive movement (hello, tech neck), and it’s easy to understand why this area deserves special attention.

The good news? Whether you’re looking to maintain a youthful appearance or correct visible signs of aging, there are both at-home and Medi Spa solutions that can make a real difference.

Why the Neck Ages Faster

Several factors make the neck and décolleté more prone to premature aging:

  1. The skin is thinner and more delicate, with fewer oil glands to retain moisture.
  2. Constant movement, especially from looking down at phones can create early lines and reduce firmness.
  3. Collagen and elastin, which keep skin smooth and elastic, naturally break down faster in this area.
  4. Many people forget to apply SPF or skincare to the neck and chest, leaving them unprotected.

The result? Fine lines, crepey texture, sagging skin, and uneven tone tend to appear here earlier than elsewhere.

Over time, these factors can lead to visible aging, including fine lines, sagging skin, uneven tone, and texture changes.

At-Home Skincare: What Works & Why

Thoughtful, targeted care at home can go a long way in preserving and enhancing the skin on your neck.

A standout product in this category is SkinMedica® Neck Correct Cream, clinically formulated specifically for the neck and décolleté.

  1. Visibly improves the appearance of fine lines and sagging
  2. Enhances firmness and elasticity
  3. Smooths rough texture and evens skin tone

While results are not immediate, consistent use of a targeted neck treatment can dramatically improve the look and feel of your skin over time.

Non-Invasive Treatments That Help

If you’re looking for a more accelerated transformation, non-surgical Medi Spa treatments can provide a powerful complement to your at-home routine:

  1. DiamondGlow: This non-invasive treatment exfoliates dead skin cells while infusing the neck with professional-grade serums, leaving it hydrated and radiant.
  2. Microneedling: Stimulates collagen production and helps tighten and smooth lax skin.
  3. Radio frequency Skin Tightening: Uses controlled heat to stimulate deep layers of the skin, promoting firmness and a more lifted appearance.

Our expert providers, under the supervision of a board-certified surgeon can develop a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your skin goals and lifestyle.

When to Consider Surgical Options

If you’re experiencing more advanced signs of aging, such as significant sagging, excess skin, or prominent platysmal banding, you may benefit from a surgical approach.

A neck lift can dramatically improve the appearance of the lower face and neck by removing excess skin, tightening underlying muscles, and redefining the jawline.

We encourage you to read our blog, “Melt Years Away with a Neck Lift“, for a deeper look at what to expect.

Dr. Keith Neaman and Dr. Dustin Christiansen offer highly personalized surgical plans tailored to your goals and anatomy, delivering natural-looking, long-lasting results.
