Neck Bands & Décolletage
When it comes to anti-ageing, we typically focus on the face, yet the decolletage is often the first area to show the signs of ageing. Many women feel that wrinkled and crepey skin on the neck and chest makes them appear older than they are, and they find themselves always covering up.
Rejuvenating the neck and décolletage is usually achieved by enhancing skin condition. Decreased levels of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid mean the skin develops fine wrinkles and age spots and starts to sag.
Horizontal necklines, or necklace lines, are a common aesthetic concern. They form due to a combination of intrinsic and extrinsic ageing factors.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why are the neck and chest so susceptible to ageing?
The skin of the décolletage is particularly thin and fragile because, unlike other parts of the body, it lacks a layer of protective and moisturising fatty tissue. As a result, it wrinkles more quickly.
We also often forget about the décolletage in our daily anti-ageing routine and focus only on the face. Similarly, we are more likely to forget to apply high-factor SPF, and sun damage is the main cause of ageing changes to the skin.
Sleeping on your side can also make neckline wrinkles more visible.
Can you do anything to prevent neck bands & décolletage? A medical-grade skincare range that boasts topical retinoid, a vitamin A-based derivative, may help reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Extend the treatment area from your face to your neck and chest at night. The decolletage is prone to sun exposure, which results in premature ageing and is also a common area for skin cancers to develop. Therefore, high-factor SPF sun protection applied daily to any exposed area of skin is vital.
How do we treat neck bands at TST? Muscle-relaxing injections temporarily relax the actions of our muscles and can treat the platysmal bands that cause a ‘turkey neck’. They can also help with jowl formation for better jaw and neck definition.
How do we treat Décolletage at the TST? Treatments are usually aimed at improving skin quality. mesotherapy involves injecting a specific cocktail (depends from your specific needs) into the skin to regenerate it and create volume. It is excellent for treating the highly visible and delicate neck area. Polynucleotides are at the forefront of regenerative medicine. This innovative injectable therapy contains DNA fragments that trigger the body’s healing response and induce cell regeneration. It can improve the appearance of many of the ageing concerns that affect the neck, such as fine lines, skin laxity, and pigmentation. Skin boosters such as Profhilo contain a high concentration of hyaluronic acid and work as injectable moisturisers to hydrate the skin and stimulate collagen and elastin production.
