Laser Neck Renewal

The neck is one of the first areas to show signs of premature aging and is often neglected. As we age, our collagen production decreases, and our skin begins to lose its elasticity and strength. However, the fine lines and sagging skin of the neck can be restored with the Laser Neck Renewal treatment, producing a smooth, supple texture and structure to the neck.

Get The Facts

The Laser Neck Renewal is for those bothered by loose or hanging skin on the neck and under the jaw. Weight fluctuations, aging, sun exposure, and lack of product application down to the neck can all contribute to the sagging appearance of the neck. The Laser Neck Renewal is a non-ablative laser that will stimulate collagen and elastin tissue, as well as target the superficial texture and creepiness of the skin on the neck. The treatment may include multiple laser modalities as we improve the skin structure and produce overall rejuvenation.

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Why is it important to treat the neck?

The neck is the base on which your head and face sit. If the skin on your neck sags, as is inevitable with aging, it pulls down the skin on your face. With the Laser Neck Renewal, you’ll enjoy a long-lasting, more seamless youthful look overall.

+ Why do I have neck lines?

With every nod or bend of the neck, the skin creases. These are temporary with movement, but as we age, they can become permanent. Neck lines are caused by skin laxity, which is a common sign of aging. As the skin creases, it can no longer bounce back or smooth out as easily.

+ Why is my neck aging quickly?

The skin on the neck is 3x thinner and contains fewer oil glands than the skin elsewhere on your body. With frequent exposure to UV and continuous everyday movement, the neck develops visible signs of aging relatively quickly.

+ What areas of the neck are treated?

The Laser Neck Renewal targets “turkey neck,” including the submental area under the chin, improving the overall texture/”tissue paper” feel all the way down to the collarbone.

+ Are there any alternative treatments to laser neck renewal?

Yes, there are alternative treatments available for neck rejuvenation. Some non-laser options include radiofrequency treatments, ultrasound therapy, or injectable treatments like Botox. Consulting with a skincare professional can help determine the most suitable treatment option based on your individual needs and goals.

+ Who is a good candidate for laser neck renewal?

Good candidates for laser neck renewal are generally individuals who have concerns about the appearance of their neck, such as sagging skin, wrinkles, or uneven texture. Ideal candidates should have realistic expectations about the outcomes of the procedure and be in overall good health. A consultation with a qualified skin expert is necessary to assess individual suitability.
