Help! I’m getting ‘turkey neck’ at 43!

[JontyDoggle37]

Are there any clinically proven serums/creams that people have also found work in real life that could firm up my crepey-looking neck? Doubly worried as I’m losing weight, so the fat currently there will disappear soon and I’ll look like I’m ready for Christmas! 🦃

I'm 46 and had quite deep necklace lines on my neck. I bought Retinol serum from Amazon and use it every night, after about 2 weeks they virtually disappeared, as did a few old acne scars. Highly recommended!

I hear you OP!

I’m 43 and have lost a lot of weight recently (in a good way). My turkey neck was bad at the beginning, got worse when I was losing weight and I slathered on clarins neck cream. I’ve reached a normal weight and it seems to have reduced a lot but I can’t be sure if that’s clarins or the weight loss.

RETINOL!
Seriously it's amazing, gets rid of wrinkles, acne and scars!

I’ve been using Sunday Riley Retinol cream for a few weeks now and my neck lines haven’t changed a bit
Not even sure it works on my face leuke I was expecting too much 😭

*maybe!

Do you have a link for the exact one you are using? This sounds like a miracle product!

My neck is horrendous. Baggy rather than necklace lines. Ugh.

Turkey neck is different to necklace lines, turkey neck is saggy skin, much harder to treat.

Pray do one that has amazing reviews

Thanks all I’ll take a look at the ones recommended.

I've got and I'm 33 I'm getting a thread lift

Retinol and red light led. Daily sunblock spf 50, all day every day rain or shine even if you aren’t going out.

I have no neck lines at 43. I’ve worn sunblock religiously since I was 22yo thanks to Newby Hands when she was Harper’s and Queen beauty editor.

@FreshfieldsGal can you put a link on to the one you use as I’ve looked on Amazon and there are loads

@Fluffycloudland77 will that do anything for a baggy neck that hangs down, or is surgery the only way to go?

Not if it’s really baggy no. Have you lost weight?.

I'm no help but my son (who has Learning disabilities and is autistic - relevant because he just says what's in his head) and I were talking about how smoking gives you wrinkles and that I gave up nearly twenty years ago, he said yes you're very wrinkly on your neck. 😂. Out of the mouths of babes.

Only about a stone, Fluffy. I’m still overweight though.

I’ve been using it for a fortnight - it’s very very good. Not for tightening but for getting rid of crepeyness. Think my horizontal crevices might be diminishing too

Which one, @Cyb?

Not so much baggy skin here but those Deirdre Barlow (god love her) ‘strings’
What’s that about?
My friend swears its from carrying heavy bags on shoulders and babes in arms for years and years☹️

Me too, it’s depressing. I can’t look at anything else on zoom!

I had to stop using retinol as it makes my skin too sun sensitive.

Are there surgical options?
