Anti-aging is one of the common problems. We know we need to wash our face and wear sunscreen to prevent problems like acne and sunburn. These are all good tips, the only problem is, we don’t use these to protect our neck, literally!
Let’s read to explore more about it.
Mostly when attending to our skin care routine, we completely skip over our neck. This is unfortunate as the neck is one of the most common areas that require wrinkle treatments later in life. If you want to prevent your neck from aging faster than the rest of your skin, follow these tips.
- Take a collagen supplement:
Collagen supplements, in the form of pills or a tasteless, dissoluble powder that can be added to your morning cup of coffee, can go a long way toward strengthening the skin all over your body, including your neck. If you prefer to take a collagen pill, be sure to look for one that also includes hyaluronic acid, a compound that makes it possible for the skin to absorb more water and appear plumper.

There really is nothing that exercise can’t make better. Studies have shown that exercising twice a week, at a moderate intensity, can actually help build new layers of skin that are thicker and more elastic. Anti-Aging
- Utilize a high-quality vitamin c serum:
When used in conjunction with a high-quality SPF moisturizer, vitamin C serums drastically decrease the sun’s ability to damage your epidermis, which means less loose skin flapping around on your neck.
- Eat fatty foods:
Foods high in Omega-3 and -6 fatty acids make it much easier for your body to produce the collagen necessary to keep your neck skin looking plump and tight for as long as possible.
- Don’t forget to exfoliate:
If you’re not properly exfoliating your neck, in addition to your face, these cells can get stuck in place, clogging your pores and making your skin look old and dull. When using a gentle exfoliator, don’t forget to do a little rubbing underneath your chin and all the way down to your collarbone!
- Get some rest and retinol:
Retinol “helps unclog pores, boost collagen, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, speed up cell turnover, and reduce uneven pigmentation,” says Anita Sturnham, founder of the Nuriss clinic in the UK. However, retinol is never something you should wear out into the sun. Apply retinol-rich products to your neck at night before bed for the best results.
