Neck and décolleté

Thin skin, creases and lost firmness

The neck and décolleté often age faster than the face, and are more rarely protected from the sun. The skin there is thin and has few sebaceous glands. Horizontal creases, vertical lines and brown marks appear early.

  • Naturally thin skin, low in collagen
  • Sun exposure, often without protection on this area
  • Looking down at screens, which marks the horizontal creases
  • Sleeping on your side, which deepens the vertical lines of the décolleté
  • The general loss of firmness with age

Marked sagging of the neck with excess skin cannot be corrected by injection. Results are slower than on the face, because the skin there has a poorer blood supply. Daily sun protection is a large part of what determines the result.

Can the neck be treated on its own?

Yes, but the result is often more harmonious when the face and neck are considered together.

How many sessions are needed?

Depending on the treatment, from 2 sessions 30 days apart to a course of 4 to 6 sessions. The protocol is confirmed at the consultation.

Is there any downtime?

Redness and small bumps at the injection points are possible for 24 to 48 hours. Radiofrequency usually leaves no mark.
