Crepey Skin

As we age, we refer to the skin on our neck as "crepey," and it's one of the main culprits of an ageing neck. It's that moment when you realise that aging has crept up on you, and it really makes your heart sink. But fret not, because crepey skin and wrinkles usually go hand-in-hand, and we can cover both in one place. The good news is that there's a lot you can do to improve the appearance of crepey skin. Let's start with hyaluronic acid - a well-known moisturising molecule that holds many times its own weight in water. By applying a hyaluronic acid serum or cream after your vitamin C or antioxidant, and before your sunscreen, you can hydrate the outer layers of your skin, improve its function, and strengthen its barrier. Now, retinol. This superstar skincare ingredient does wonders for your skin. It boosts collagen production, reduces pigmentation, and makes old, sluggish skin cells behave like energetic, younger ones. Just remember to introduce it slowly into your skincare routine to allow your skin time to adjust. And when it comes to prescription skincare, let's explore two powerful options: Firstly, retinoic acid. This is even better than retinol and can be obtained with a prescription from a dermatologist. It's many times more effective in regenerating skin renewal, reducing pigmentation, and softening the look of sun-damage-induced wrinkles. However, caution is advised as your skin adapts to it. Secondly, hydroquinone. This gold-standard pigment-busting ingredient is available only with a prescription. It can be combined with retinol to combat pigmentation marks on the skin. So, if you're ready to take charge of your crepey skin, try out these skincare tips and explore the possibilities for younger-looking skin.

If you’re looking to improve the appearance of a crepey neck, fillers might be able to offer some help, although they won’t provide a complete cure. However, it’s important to consider that filling in wrinkles on the neck may sometimes result in an overstuffed look, which can appear unnatural and yield unsatisfactory results – especially if the wrinkles are not deep horizontal lines. In my personal experience, I’ve tried using a gentle injectable filler called Aliaxin to address my neck wrinkles, which provided some improvement.

Vitamin C can have a remarkable impact on skin health.
