The neck is always a give away when it comes to ageing. Most traditional aesthetic treatments concentrate on the face, however Nurse Susie will always look at the entire picture. So what happens to the neck as we age and how can we treat it?
How Does The Neck Change As We Age?
As a part of the natural ageing process the skin on the neck can become thin and crepey. This is usually accelerated because the collagen in the neck skin is already at a lower level than that in other parts of the body. As a result, even a small depletion can have a noticeable visual impact.
In addition to the more noticeable development of fine lines and wrinkles, the neck skin can also experience other signs of ageing like dark spots and hyperpigmentation. On the neck, these are often caused by over exposure to UV light. If regular, effective SPF is not used, the visible signs of ageing can evident earlier.
How Can We Treat This?
Profhilo®
At SO Aesthetics Aesthetic Clininc Northern Ireland, Nurse Susie may recommend Profhilo®. It is one of the most proven effective skin remodelling agents available. As well as filling lines and wrinkles, Profhilo® tightens and firms loose facial skin, delivering visible improvements after just two treatments. It is ideal for overall facial rejuvenation and targeting difficult areas which only usually show improvement with surgery, such as tightening loose skin around, and under the chin, and firming crepey and lax neck skin. It uses one of the highest concentrations of Hyaluronic acid on the market (64mg / 2ml).
Anti-Wrinkle Treatment
For neck skin with fine lines and wrinkles, Nurse Susie can administer anti-wrinkle treatment. This can be a highly effective solution. These injections can reduce and slow muscle movement which allows the skin to reset and be restored to its natural position, smoothing neck lines and wrinkles associated with expressions and movement.
Neck And Décolleté Firming Cream
SO Aesthetics Clinic Northern Ireland is a stockist of Alumier’s Neck and Décolleté Firming Cream. This is a smooth firming moisturiser that improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, restoring a more youthful appearance. Modified levels of encapsulated retinol firm and strengthen the skin, while licorice evens out skin tone. Gentle flower acids exfoliate dead cells and promote skin renewal.
