What are the Signs of an Ageing Neck?
An ageing neck, often referred to as a “turkey neck”, is a common concern as people age. Several signs indicate the ageing process in the neck:
-
Loose or Sagging Skin
-
Wrinkles and Fine Lines
-
Crepey Texture
-
Visible Neck Bands
-
Loss of Jawline Definition
Several factors contribute to the ageing of the neck:
-
Natural Ageing Process
-
Sun Damage
-
Genetics
-
Weight Fluctuations
-
Poor Posture
-
Smoking
While ageing of the neck is a natural process, various cosmetic treatments are available to address these concerns, including thread lifts, injectables, microneedling and skin tightening procedures.
Additionally, adopting a skincare routine that includes moisturising and sunscreen can help slow down the ageing process and maintain the health of the neck skin.

What are the signs of an ageing neck?
Signs of an ageing neck, often referred to as “turkey neck” can include:
- Loose or Sagging Skin: As we age, the skin loses elasticity, leading to sagging and drooping around the neck area.
- Wrinkles and Fine Lines: Creases and lines may develop on the neck, including horizontal lines known as “necklace lines” and vertical lines called “platysmal bands.”
- Neck Bands: Vertical bands or cords can become more prominent due to weakening muscles and thinning skin.
- Double Chin: Accumulation of fat under the chin can create the appearance of a double chin, often exacerbated by ageing and weight fluctuations.
- Skin Texture Changes: The texture of the skin may become rougher or more crepey, with decreased collagen and moisture levels contributing to this change.
- Visible Veins and Sun Damage: Ageing can cause the skin to thin, making veins more noticeable. Sun damage over the years can also lead to pigmentation irregularities and rough patches on the neck.
- Loss of Jawline Definition: The jawline may appear less defined as the skin loses elasticity and sags, contributing to a less youthful appearance.
Addressing these signs of ageing often involves a combination of skincare, lifestyle adjustments, and professional treatments such as neck firming creams, sunscreen application, regular exercise, maintaining a healthy diet, and cosmetic procedures like thread lift, microneedling, plexr and more.
Consulting with a dermatologist can provide tailored advice based on individual concerns and goals.
Can you reverse the signs of an ageing neck?
While it’s not possible to completely reverse the natural ageing process, there are various strategies to help improve the appearance of an ageing neck and minimise its signs:
- Skincare: Using moisturisers, serums, and neck creams containing ingredients like retinoids, hyaluronic acid, peptides, and antioxidants can help improve skin elasticity, texture, and hydration, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
- Sun Protection: Consistently applying broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher to the neck area can prevent further sun damage, including pigmentation changes and loss of collagen.
- Healthy Lifestyle: Eating a balanced diet rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and omega-3 fatty acids, staying hydrated, avoiding smoking, limiting alcohol consumption, and getting regular exercise can promote overall skin health and slow down the ageing process.
- Cosmetic Procedures: Professional treatments like thread lifts, injectables, microneedling, and plexr can help address specific concerns such as sagging skin, wrinkles, and uneven texture. These procedures should be performed by qualified medical professionals experienced in neck rejuvenation.
- Neck Exercises: Performing targeted neck exercises and stretches can help strengthen the muscles, improve posture, and maintain neck firmness and tone.
- Collagen Supplements: Some individuals may benefit from collagen supplements, which can potentially improve skin elasticity and hydration when taken as part of a comprehensive anti-ageing regimen.
While these approaches can help improve the appearance of an ageing neck, it’s essential to manage expectations. Understandably, results may vary depending on factors such as age, genetics, skin type, and lifestyle habits.
Here at Freyja Medical we offer consutlations to provide personalised recommendations and treatment plans tailored to individual needs and goals.
