I've recently lost some weight and had the shock of my life when I realised (today)that I the skin under my chin is saggy and wrinkled. It looks awful and makes me feel ancient!
Any advice?

That's why God created snoods

Snoods, scarves. polo necks, scarves. Bleurgh!! All of them. Just hunch a lot. I hunch so much I have a very pale patch of skin under my chin where the sun never gets to it!

Seriously, try a very good neck cream, and think positive. If you smile enough, surely the muscles will get some exercise, and people will think you are so lovely, they won't look below your face..

Try prai neck cream from qvc - it's affordable (go for the gatineau if you can stretch to it) and you can send it back if you don't see an improvement!!

My old yoga teacher used to say that the neck was the easiest muscle to tone. Certainly she had no sign of any sagging in that area. Try some specific facial exercises (lots of smiling at the ceiling).

Lots of shading around the jaw line hides a bit of the turkey wattle.
