Beyond the Face – Neck & Décolleté Care

Why the Neck Ages Quickly

The neck and décolleté have fewer oil glands and thinner skin than the face, so they show sun damage and collagen loss sooner. This area is constantly exposed to sunlight and is in motion whenever we turn our head, contributing to crepey texture, sagging, and pigmentation.

Understanding Neck Care

Clients today want targeted products that address firmness, texture, and tone. Advanced neck formulas contain ingredients that penetrate deeper and support collagen for a smoother, tighter appearance.

Key Ingredients:

• Peptides: Encourage collagen production to firm and plump thin skin.
• Retinoids: Increase cell turnover and collagen synthesis. Start slow.
• Vitamin C: Protects skin from free‑radical damage and brightens pigmentation.
• Hyaluronic Acid & Ceramides: Attract and lock in moisture.
  

At‑Home Care Tips

• Apply SPF daily.
• Extend facial products to the neck using upward strokes.
• Use gentle exfoliation with lactic or glycolic acid.
• Consistency matters—daily care produces better results.
  

Professional Treatments

• Radio‑frequency skin tightening stimulates collagen and firms lax neck skin.
• Microneedling triggers collagen formation and enhances texture, especially when paired with peptides or PRP.
• Body‑contouring options can reduce submental fullness and complement neck care.
  

Takeaway

The neck and décolleté deserve the same attention as the face. Combine targeted at‑home care with professional treatments for a comprehensive approach to achieving a smoother, more youthful neckline.
