This is probably a silly question, but have you ever noticed the sag and neck wrinkles some people develop? You would think of all of the areas of the body prone to wrinkles that the neck would be safe. We use it all the time to swallow, turn our heads, and talk. It doesn’t seem likely that it would wrinkle with all of that activity, yet it does. There are a few reasons why this area is prone to fine lines and wrinkles. There are also a few things that can be done to slow the production of wrinkles in this area as well.

• Fat loss
• Poor skin care
• Unprotected exposure to the sun (now there’s a shock)

Before you celebrate the idea of fat loss, consider this. The fat in our necks is what gives it the firm, non wrinkled appearance of youth. As we age those fat deposits are diminished and with it comes the sagging, wrinkled appearance we all want to avoid. Another effect of the fat loss under the skin of the neck is the waddling of the skin. It no longer has the support it needs to stay firm and smooth.

Many people focus on their face and hands when it comes to skin care. After all if you can’t see a person’s age in their face, you can usually see it in their hands. But since very few people think to take care of the neck skin, it wrinkles and deteriorates before you even notice there is a problem. Cleanse, tone, and hydrate this skin using an all natural product, such as Skin Original. Use upward motions to apply neck cream and defy gravity.

Obviously this has never been mentioned before, but sun exposure is bad for your skin. Shocking, isn’t it? Of course you know that, but think about the last time you put sunscreen on your neck. This area is so often overlooked that the neck may as well just hang a sign inviting the sun to do its worse. In the future, be sure to protect the neck and chest skin as well as you would your face. If not your face may be wrinkle free, but just below it looks like a roadmap.

Neck wrinkles can be avoided just like the wrinkles on the rest of the face and body. Take the necessary steps to prevent premature wrinkles here and elsewhere. It only takes a minute.
