So you’re diligent about applying the best anti-ageing skincare to your face – but have you given much thought to the skin below your chin?
No? Perhaps it’s time to, because, much like the hands, the neck and décolleté is often an overlooked area that can be a big ageing giveaway. “The skin on the neck and chest is one of the most delicate areas of the body,” explains Dr Sophie Shotter, founder of Illuminate Skin Clinics. “It has a thin dermis layer, meaning it has less collagen and elastin and fewer oil glands to keep skin supple.This makes it more prone to wrinkles, sagging and hyperpigmentation.” Luckily there are some measures you can take to lift and smooth this area to create a smoother, more youthful-looking neckline.
Extend your skincare The first rule of thumb is to always take whatever skincare you’re putting on your face down onto your neck and chest – cleanser, serums and especially SPF. “Applying a broad spectrum sunscreen to your neck and chest every day is the single best step you can take to keep this area of your skin looking youthful and smooth for years to come,” says Dr Sophie.
Use targeted skincare products If the damage is already there, there are a number of skincare products designed to specifically target this particular area, such as PRAI Ageless Throat & Decolletage Cream.
