Neck Lines
What are neck lines?
Neck lines and wrinkles are a natural part of the ageing process and can develop over time as the skin around our neck begins to lose its elasticity. It’s extremely common for wrinkles around the neck area to develop as we grow older, however the appearance of them can vary per individual. Whilst in some cases they might be faint, others might have deep lines and sagging skin around the neck. Wrinkles that develop as a sign of ageing usually appear as horizontal lines on the neck, whereas lines from other factors such as contraction or prolonged computer/desk work can present themselves as vertical lines. Whilst any lines and wrinkles on the skin are common and natural some can become unhappy with the appearance of their neck area and look for treatments to help reverse the signs of ageing.
What causes neck lines?
The main cause for neck lines to develop is ageing and a loss of elastin and collagen in the neck area. Whilst those factors can’t be avoided there are some other contributing factors that can increase the risk of neck wrinkles becoming prominent including:
- Genetics & family history
- Repetitive computer/desk work & looking down
- Excessive weight loss causing areas of skin to sag
- Smoking can damage collagen levels
- Exposure to the sun & harmful UV rays
- Alcohol consumption
- No early preventative treatments
It’s easier to work to prevent wrinkling and the signs of ageing then it is to go in and fix years of ageing & significant collagen and elasticity loss. We can help patients from as early as 30 with preventative treatments to help keep their skin feeling young, fresh and rejuvenated.
