“I feel bad about my neck” Nora Ephron - and me!

My neck has gone all crepey and wattle-y. All of a sudden. It’s really affected me as I never noticed it before and now, over the last couple of months, it looks awful, very ageing. My face is ok... no wrinkles really at all except smile lines and my neck is a shocker. I’m early 40s.
I read about Prai and I got the serum... it’s done nothing.
Any tips? Advice?
Creams or scarves or surgery?

Nivea blue pot makes it look better. You can also do some exercises. Make sure you wear spf. You could try retinol.
Tbh, the best thing for me is the plain old nivea blue pot. Its thick and seems to make it look better but it is temporary. Never found anything to work. I had Prai. Never worked for me neither did anything like clarins, strivectin...nada, nothing.

I think you can have botox. There are other treatments too. Obv with lockdown, there is nothing open..well at least where i am.

My neck is horrible, like a shar pei dog and I'm not yet 40. My recent weight gain hasn't helped the extra lines and I'm dreading it resembling a vagina when I get this weight off.

I can't see any creams working so would consider surgery if it gets really bad. Face is fine though!

Boots retinol and elizabeth arden vitamin c capsules / alternate. My neck looks a bit better. Not for cissies though. Bits of skin fell off my neck and chin. The elizabeth arden vit c doesnt sting but some of the sting like 😭😑🙀

Thank you! I do use retinol but for some reason haven’t thought to use it on my neck. I’ll start with that. Plus nivea.
It’s so droopy - I think surgery might be the answer Sad
