Our neck not only supports the face, but it is also a symbol of our inner strength, confidence and grace. But, as the burden of age weighs on us, the skin around the neck gets wrinkled, loose and saggy, thus ruining the elegance of the once-slender neck.
In the process of ageing of the neck, the skin follows the same processes as any other photo-exposed area. However, it has a peculiarity, that is, the appearance of horizontal lines called strings or bands, which is the result of the ageing of a thin muscle. It is more visible in active contraction movements. It appears, even though people are concerned about preserving the beauty of their face, but, they often forget to care for their neck properly, which is equally significant in uplifting the overall attractiveness of the face. The neck, like the hands, reveals all the information about a person’s actual age, so while opting for any cosmetic treatment on face, don’t forget to work on your neck also if you really want to reduce some number of years. Many patients are realizing this fact now, and more and more patients are leaning towards neck rejuvenation treatment.
Anti-ageing Treatments for Neck Rejuvenation:
We have different treatments to rejuvenate the skin: laser, chemical peels, anti-wrinkle injections and most important of all dermal fillers. Depending on the type of creases around the neck, our skin doctor suggests the most efficient neck rejuvenation treatment.
At the outer skin level:
To rejuvenate the neck we need to act on both the skin and muscle levels. For the first, that is to act on the surface of the skin, there are several procedures such as peeling, dermal fillers and Fraxel lasers to apparently reduce wrinkles and tone the neck.
At Nitai Medical and Cosmetic Centre, we highly recommend either hyaluronic acid fillers or Fraxel Laser Treatment based on the skin texture and the intensity of the wrinkles.
Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers give volume to the skin and enrich it with deep hydration. On top of that, dermal fillers also enhance the luminosity of the skin, lending it a fresh, glowing look.
All these are non-aggressive techniques, which does not involve any surgery or excessive pain and one can resume the daily activity perfectly after the treatments. The number of sessions is variable, depending on the degree of ageing. With these neck rejuvenation treatments, we will be able to eliminate spots, wrinkles and produce a tension of the whole skin. The effect is visible in the first days, but more evident months later (thanks to the synthesis of new collagen).
At the muscle level:
To eliminate or correct the bands or horizontal lines of the neck we have fewer options. Non-surgical and temporary solutions involve cosmetic injections, such as our premium quality anti-wrinkle injections, which requires repetition after every 4-6 months.
Thread-lifting Treatment:
The magical thread-lifting treatment uses soft thread sutures to redefine structures or to collect the excess skin of the jowls. They are useful techniques, but they do not produce deep rejuvenation, nor do they act on the neck bands at a deeper level.
Daily Care to Prevent Neck Wrinkles:
The most recommended solution is the frequent use of the photoresist or sunscreen to counteract the effect of UV light as it results in premature ageing. It is advisable to not use cheap perfume products as they might harm the skin and contribute to fast ageing of the skin. Finally, we must choose products that have retinoid or pure vitamin C as a rejuvenating active ingredient to promote complete neck rejuvenation.
