Microneedling for Neck and Chest: How to Get Rid of Neck Wrinkles and Discoloration | MedSpa NYC


 

Is the skin on your neck and chest becoming a road map of lines, age spots or crepey skin? Are you afraid that revealing a bit of décolleté will reveal your age as well?

Isn’t it time to give your neck and décolletage the same attention as your face? In fact, a treatment we love for the face (hint: think Kim K and the Vampire Facial) is also highly effective at rejuvenating skin on the neck and chest.

Our Guide, Microneedling: Neck and Chest, explains why and includes what to expect, how it works, benefits, results side effects, downtime and more, courtesy of the best Medical Spa on the Upper East Side, Manhattan:

 


Microneedling Neck and Chest: Why Am I Showing Visible Signs of Aging on My Neck and Chest?

Sadly, the skin on the neck and decollete is often overlooked. Unlike parts of the body like arms and legs, we often neglect the neck and chest as a part of our daily skincare regimen.

What’s more, the skin on the neck, shoulders and upper chest is particularly susceptible to noticeable signs of aging for several reasons. These areas of the body:

  • Have thinner and more delicate skin than on the rest of the body,
  • Have fewer, reparative oil glands,
  • Are more prone to sun damage, 
  • Have less collagen and elastin, making them less firm and elastic.

These aging factors can result in early skin laxity, uneven tone, and visible skin damage—making a targeted treatment like Microneedling for chest and neck all the more important for anti-aging.


What Causes Neck Wrinkles? Why Is My Neck Skin Changing?

Neglect coupled with age-prone skin is a recipe for accelerated textural and tonal changes on the neck and chest including:

  • Dry, crepey skin
  • Wrinkles in the form of vertical neck lines or horizontal neck bands
  • Coloration changes such as sun spots, age spots, dark marks or diffuse redness
  • Less defined jawline / Sagging neck (often called Turkey Neck or Neck Waddle)

 


Microneedling Neck and Chest: Why Choose Microneedling for Skin Renewal and Rejuvenation?

Microneedling is one of the best ways to naturally restore damaged skin and reveal a healthier, younger look to the neck and chest.

During treatment, a dermapen is passed over the surface of the skin to create tiny “micro-injuries” in the epidermis. As a result, it sparks the body’s ability to heal itself naturally.

Specifically, a Microneedling treatment works to trigger fibroblast cell growth and stimulate the production of new collagen and elastin.

When used in tandem with a serum, like Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), Miso Vitamins or Hyaluronic Acid, a Microneedling treatment sparks a whole host of regenerative properties in the skin.

Microneedling is also a safer alternative to laser  in this sensitive region, making it a preferred choice for neck and décolleté skin renewal and rejuvenation.


Microneedling Neck and Chest: What’s the Best Serum for Use on Neck and Chest?

Smooth Synergy® NYC offers Microneedling with three different serums that all have superior skin nourishing and rejuvenating abilities. It’s best to speak with an esthetician to figure out what’s right for your specific neck or chest aging concern. However, in general, they offer the following benefits:

MICRONEEDLING WITH HYALURONIC ACID  (HA)

Replenishes levels of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) to increase cellular turnover and boost blood circulation for instantly more hydrated skin, as well as a smoother, brighter complexion.

MICRONEEDLING WITH MESO ANTIOXIDANT VITAMINS

Vitamins B, C and E protect the cells from free-radicals and environmental, oxidative stress. Diminishes wrinkles, as well as improves skin elasticity and smoothness.

MICRONEEDLING WITH PLATELET-RICH PLASMA (PRP)

Promotes collagen and stem cell production, increases cellular turnover, as well as encourages blood circulation to the skin.
