Most of us work really hard to keep our faces looking young and healthy. We exfoliate, moisturize, use expensive creams and anti-wrinkle serums, etc. But what about the neck? It’s almost always left out of beauty routines and it’s actually one area that can age us just as much as facial wrinkles. By the time many realize that fact, the time for prevention has passed and it’s time to do some work to try and combat the wrinkles and signs of aging that have begun to appear.

Here are five ways you can help rejuvenate your neck and bring back that youthful appearance to your skin.

Kybella

Kybella is an FDA-approved treatment for those with double chins and what is commonly called “turkey necks.” It’s formulated to be identical to the chemicals our bodies already naturally produce to absorb fat. It permanently destroys and dissolves fat cells when injected.

Thermage

Thermage is a non-invasive treatment using radiofrequency technology to tighten the skin and smooth fine lines and wrinkles.

Botox

The off-label use of Botox on the neck area has become known as the Botox Neck-Lift. It’s a non-surgical solution for those who want quicker results than waiting for products to begin working. It is most effective with the vertical bands in the neck known as platysmal bands and a little less effective with the horizontal bands.

Products

There are so many products on the market to help fight wrinkles, including many dedicated just to the neck area. Firming creams are one of the most popular products, but one of the newest products growing rapidly in popularity is silicone sheets. These silicone neck-lift patches claim to hydrate, tighten and tone the skin on the neck overnight and are worn while you sleep.
