Let's talk about neck problems after 40.

From the age of 40, the neck becomes one of the areas that most clearly reveals our age. The skin on the neck is thin and delicate, and over time it loses firmness, elasticity, and hydration. This is compounded by other factors such as sun exposure, genetics, and posture.

We forget about it because we focus on our face. We know every wrinkle on our forehead and around our eyes, and meanwhile, our neck silently suffers all that neglect . If Dracula were to rise from the dead, he'd return to his coffin.

What exactly happens to the skin on the neck?

• Wrinkles and expression lines: the skin on the neck loses collagen and elastin, leading to the appearance of wrinkles and expression lines, especially along the horizontal area of ​​the neck and décolletage. Excessive mobile phone use is a major trigger.
• Sagging: Loss of muscle tone and fat accumulation can cause sagging skin on the neck, our much-hated double chin, which has a significant genetic factor.
• Sunspots : no, the neck is not exempt, you have to apply SPF just like on the face.
• Dehydration: This skin is more prone to dehydration than facial skin, making it more vulnerable to wrinkles and expression lines.

What causes aging in this part of the body?

• Natural aging: collagen and elastin production decreases with age, leading to a loss of firmness and elasticity in the skin. This is particularly noticeable on the neck, because the skin there is very thin.
• Sun exposure: Exposure to the sun's UV rays damages the skin and accelerates the aging process.
• Genetics: Genetics plays an important role in skin aging, including that of the neck.
• Body posture: Spending a lot of time with your head tilted forward, like when you're looking at your phone, can contribute to sagging skin. Less TikTok, more weightlifting.

What are the best cosmetic ingredients for the neck?

• Retinol: a powerful anti-aging active ingredient that stimulates the production of collagen and elastin.
• Hyaluronic acid: deeply moisturizes the skin and fills wrinkles.
• Vitamin C: an antioxidant that protects the skin from sun damage and stimulates collagen production.
• Peptides: help improve skin firmness and elasticity.

What shouldn't we do?

• Exfoliating your neck too often: this skin is very sensitive and can become easily irritated. But exfoliation is necessary; the key is frequency and choosing a good product.
• Not using sunscreen: sun exposure is one of the main factors that accelerate skin aging. We tend to be very consistent with sunscreen on our face, but we forget about our neck.
• Sleeping on your stomach: this position can contribute to wrinkles and is also bad for your back. We also don't recommend sleeping on your side. One of the keys to a youthful appearance is sleeping on your back.

Which cosmetic technology is most recommended?

• Radiofrequency: our flagship technology, which emits electromagnetic waves that penetrate and heat the skin cells where collagen and elastin are produced.
