Most women want a defined jawline, a long, graceful neck and firm skin under their chins. Ageing and genetics can sometimes work against this ideal aesthetic. Luckily, today there are plenty of non-invasive andโฏnon-surgical cosmeticโฏoptions that can help you attain the beautiful neck, chin, and jawline you desire.
Surprisingly, for a small region like the neck, there are several common aesthetic concerns clients complain about. Keep reading to find out what the tell-tale signs of ageing are in this area and then, how they can be solved.
From laptops to tablets to smartphones and more, millennial tech habits appear to be causing a new wave of an old aesthetic concern. A condition that was once referred to as โturkey neckโ is now being renamed โtech neck,โ since our addiction to gadgets combined with the tendency to have our necks bent down at a screen are contributing to sagging skin around the chin and neck.โฏ
Additionally, UV light from the sun degrades collagen and elastin, important proteins that keep skin supple, firm, and youthful.โฏAnd just like your face, the neck is exposed to the sun every day. However, while most people remember to apply qualityโฏsunscreensโฏon their faces, the neck is often forgotten.
The skin of the neck is very delicate and thin. As a result, neck skin sags quickly with age and the loss of collagen. Again, when it comes to skin treatments like face masks, serums, and sun protection, the face gets most of the attention, but the neck, much like the dรฉcolletรฉ area, tends to be overlooked.
Even if your facial skin looks youthful and refreshed, the neck is a dead giveaway of your age. Sagging and crepe-like skin on the neck can make you look a lot older. No one wants that!
Ageing and weight gain can lead to the development of a double chin, aka submental fat pad. This occurs when a layer of fat forms below the chin. Weight gain is one cause but ageing and genetics are also factors.
As the skin sags over time, the fat layer drops further, creating the illusion that you have two chins. Thatโs why even skinny people can form double chins. Thankfully, there are neck rejuvenation treatments that eliminate double chins.โฏ
A contoured jawline helps define your face. The most beautiful faces also have a defined jawline. Jowls along with a sagging jawline develop as the ageing skin sags. Neck rejuvenation treatments help define and tighten the jawline for a fresher, more youthful appearance.โฏ
Pigmentation (also referred to as hyperpigmentation) occurs when areas of the skin darken due to an increase in melanin production. Itโs a very common skin concern, especially among those who enjoy spending time outside, and it only worsens with age. Pigmentation can occur anywhere on your skin but can be very frustrating when itโs highly visible on your face and neck.โฏ
Now for the good news! Yes, there are treatments that can promote the appearance of a youthful neck area. Here, weโre going to focus on the most popular neck rejuvenation treatments that will lead to the optimal outcome.

As people get older, dynamic muscles (the muscles that create movement) in the lower face and neck can become more obvious. They lead to the formation of wrinkles, lines, and bands. Neuromodulator treatments are quick, painless and have no downtime.โฏโฏ
Chin fillers or neck fillers are injectable dermal fillers which contain hyaluronic acid to plump and firm the skin as well as add moisture to it. They can be used to improve and create contours in the neck and jawline areas. Our team of experienced injectors skilfully use dermal fillers to elongate the neck and soften the jaw line. Dermal fillers can also improve the shape of a chin that is disproportionate in size, angular, sloping, along with other concerns.โฏโฏ
Volite is an innovative injectable treatment designed to improve the quality of your neck skin.โฏThis is not a dermal filler, it is a skin conditioning hyaluronic acid (HA) gel.โฏVolite is injected into the middle layers of the dermis across many sitesโฏto nourish it from the inside out. โฏVolite is suitable for all ages because it:โฏ
This injectable treatment helps eliminate the double chin by โmeltingโ submental fat. The injections contain a special chemical that dissolves fat by separating the fat molecules into tiny particles. The particles are then flushed away naturally by the body. Our clients have had enormous success with this treatment.
Neck treatments with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) lead to a reduction inโฏfine lines, drooping, and pigmentation. With successive treatments, our clients see a dramatic improvement in their neck area. Because PRP contains growth factors that stimulate the regeneration of tissue and blood vessels, more nutrients are available to the skin.
It usually takes approximately 3-6 months to produce your own collagen and elastin, so results arenโt immediate. The first thing you may notice is a new glow to your skin, followed byโฏa decrease of pigment. Over time, youโll see the lift and an improvement of wrinkles around your neck.โฏ
Mesotherapy is a technique that uses injections of vitamins, enzymes, hormones, and plant extracts to rejuvenate and tighten skin on the neck area. Depending on the โcocktailโ used for your specific concern, it may also address pigmentation in the neck area.โฏ
Radiofrequency treatment technologies safely deliver targeted heat below the skinโs surface to kick start the production of collagen and elastin. This restores plumpness, smoothes out wrinkles, and increases elasticity for a smoother, firmer, younger-looking neck.โฏ
Ditch that double chin once and for all. CoolSculpting for the chin is a non-invasive fat reduction procedure that involves no anesthesia, needles, or incisions. Itโs based on the principle of cooling subcutaneous fat (fat under the skin) to the point that the fat cells are destroyed by the cooling process. Then, they are absorbed and eliminated naturally by the body.
Looking to smooth awayโฏskin imperfections on your neck and chest? Get set for IPL Photo rejuvenation โ a non-invasive treatment that gets to the root of the problem by harnessing the power of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL).โฏ
Erase the signs of ageing from your neck and chest. This treatment targetsโฏskin pigmentation, brown spots,โฏred blemishes, broken blood vessels and thin, saggy skin, as well as deep horizontal or vertical wrinkles on the neck or chest region.
A daily anti-ageing skincare routine for the face is a necessity for preventing sagging skin and wrinkles, so why wouldnโt we extend this same regimen to our neck and chest? It seems simple, but itโs often a missed step. Skin care is an easy way to give time and attention to the neck area since youโre already spending the time taking care of your face. The extra step to carry your products down to the chin, neck, and dรฉcolletรฉ will be well worth it over time as the youthful appearance of your face will continue to match the youthful-looking skin on your chest and neck. This tip also goes for SPF, because the skin on the neck is thinner andโฏlacks oil glands which help to promote natural skin moisture.
Basically this means that the damaging effects of the sunโs ultraviolet (UV) rays in breaking down collagen and elastin within the skin has a more pronounced effect on the neck! So donโt forget your sunscreen, even on gray cloudy days
