The reality is that most of us are unaware of just how delicate and thin our neck skin is1. The fact that it contains no oil glands certainly doesn't help. Therefore, unless you pay the same level of attention to your neck skin as your facial skin, you run the risk of developing neck wrinkles at a younger age.
Why do neck wrinkles appear?
We all lose skin elasticity as we age. Collagen and elastin, structural proteins found in the dermis, provide strength and elasticity to the skin's structure. After the age of 25, the production and quality of collagen and elastin naturally decrease. As the collagen and elastin fibres degrade, the skin loses elasticity and firmness, resulting in wrinkled and saggy skin.
This natural process is aggravated by sun exposure and, particularly, intense and repeated sun exposure, which further degrades the structural fibres and leads to the appearance of wrinkles, spots and visible veins.
How to get rid of neck wrinkles?
The first step to improving skin texture and removing neck wrinkles without surgery is to use specially formulated cosmetic products. While these products should ideally be used from the age of 25 years, it is never too late to start a specific neck treatment.
This is where mesoestetic® age element® solutions can help you achieve firmer, tighter, more elastic and supple skin and a more defined face.

The result is a redefined facial contour and visibly firmer and smoother skin.

Treatments to eliminate neck wrinkles
Preventing and getting rid of neck wrinkles is a common concern for many women. Thankfully, there are multiple treatments that deliver excellent results. We cover the most effective options below.
Professional aesthetic treatments
- age element® firming solutions:
The efficacy of the age element® firming solutions range for professional use is supported by a formulation of patented active ingredients composed of peptides, firming phytoactives and [meso]epigen system™ that target the main signs of ageing. The range is recommended for combating flaccidity in the neck, neckline and face.
Before and after results
- radiofrequency:
Radiofrequency is a non-surgical technology that uses energy to heat the skin without damaging the surface epidermis. The heat improves wrinkles and sagging by stimulating the contraction of collagen fibres and the production of new collagen to produce firmer and wrinkle-free skin. It provides a visible tightening and firming effect and helps to redefine the face.
Before and after results
- microneedling:
Microneedling4 is a professional technique that works by injecting active ingredients with firming properties into the skin while also providing and transporting essential moisturising ingredients to support the skin and combat flaccidity and wrinkles. This minimally invasive technique uses a device that makes micro-perforations in the skin to deliver active ingredients to specific areas of the skin. This targeted approach provides more effective results.
Medical treatments
- mesotherapy:
Mesotherapy is a procedure that uses extremely fine needles to inject different compounds into the dermis (middle layer of the skin). The mesohyal™ range by mesoestetic® offers exclusive, effective and safe formulations containing hyaluronic acid that target the underlying causes of wrinkles and flaccidity for natural results.
Before and after results
- hyaluronic acid fillers:
Hyaluronic acid fillers work by injecting a hyaluronic acid gel directly into the skin. They hydrate and plump the skin and stimulate collagen generation, adding firmness and elasticity to the neck area.
The key takeaway is that skincare is not just for the face. Your neck and neckline deserve the same level of care and attention.
