Neck skin care rules

Women carefully monitor the condition of the face and figure. But many people forget about caring for the décolleté area, although the skin of the neck requires special attention. It happens that a lady has well-groomed skin, a toned body, but a flabby neck. Against the background of all the external advantages, this disadvantage becomes very noticeable. Let's take a look at the basic rules of neck care and some tricks to help prevent and eliminate the signs of skin aging.

There are several reasons for the rapid aging of the neck skin. The sebaceous glands on the chest and neck have low activity, and with age, metabolic processes slow down, so the activity of the glands decreases even more. The layer of subcutaneous fat becomes thinner and gradually ceases to fulfill its function, which leads to dehydration of the skin and, as a result, to withering of the skin.

The environment has a direct impact on the human body. For example, hard water can have a negative effect on the appearance and health of your skin. Calcium and magnesium salts contained in it dry the skin. And the consequence of dryness is the insecurity of the epidermis and dermis. Also, tissues begin to age faster under the influence of water with a high content of chlorine and ultraviolet rays, which dehydrate the skin.

Weak neck muscles lead to sagging skin over time. If there is no physical activity, then collagen and elastin cease to be produced. These are proteins that help to keep the body toned and not lose the elasticity and firmness of the skin. Of course, you shouldn't forget about the genetic and hormonal factors. By the age of 40, a person experiences a change in biological metabolic processes, which slow down significantly.The skin of the neck undergoes similar changes, gradually becoming wrinkled.

Improper nutrition, an abundance of junk food, consumption of a small amount of water - all this has a detrimental effect on the body as a whole. From unbalanced nutrition, the skin does not receive enough vitamins and microelements, so it becomes dry and lifeless.

The neckline and hands of a woman are the first to age, their condition indicates biological age. In some girls, at the age of 25-30, you can see the rings of Venus and slightly sagging skin on the neck. If you are not yet showing signs of aging, then this greatly simplifies the task. You just need to keep the skin in good shape.

Consider what rules you need to adhere to in order to maintain the youth and elasticity of the neck.

• Avoid lying down reading. This adversely affects blood circulation, visual acuity and breathing rhythm. This position leads to the formation of wrinkles on the neck. Sleeping on hard large pillows is harmful, the neck becomes numb in one position and blood circulation is impaired, which gradually leads to aging.
• Keep your back straight and straighten your shoulders. An even posture and correct position of the cervical vertebrae will help preserve the natural youth of the décolleté area.
• Eat a healthy diet. The key to health is a balanced diet. Vitamins, nutrients enter the cells of the dermis, as a result, the skin retains its elasticity.
• Drink plenty of water. It is necessary for the normal functioning of all organs. If there is not enough fluid in the cells, then this will definitely affect the condition of the skin. It can become dehydrated, causing premature aging.
• Do aerobic exercise regularly. This type of physical activity enhances oxygen metabolism in the body and accelerates the growth of the stroke volume of the heart. All this has a positive effect on blood circulation. In addition, useful substances such as collagen and elastin enter the skin cells through the blood.

Do not neglect professional cosmetic care. The salons have specialists who will help you achieve the maximum effect of the procedures. As a rule, the tools that professionals use are more effective. Fruit exfoliation will work wonders on your neck skin. Fruit acids tone the skin, make it silky and soft, tighten fine wrinkles. This procedure has a cumulative effect, so it must be repeated 5-6 times, after which the result will be noticeable. Professionals advise such care to be carried out by girls between the ages of 25 and 30, when skin aging has not yet been observed.

Hyaluronic acid is found in tissue cells, including the dermis, but as we age, the body produces less and less of it. Hyaluronic acid maintains water balance, so the skin does not dry out from the inside, which means that the aging process slows down. The procedure for injecting hyaluronic acid is called biorevitalization. A course of 5 procedures will help to rejuvenate the skin of the neck, while they need to be repeated every 8 months.

Do not forget about regular neck skin care at home. The décolleté area should be constantly moisturized, so you need to use nourishing creams that are gentle on gentle scrubs and masks.

You can prepare a mask at home, and there are a lot of options.

• Mix some olive oil with lemon juice (3-5 drops will be enough). Apply to the neck, wait 15 minutes, blot off the rest of the oil with a napkin.Regular application of the mask will relieve the skin from dryness and make it more elastic.
• Grated potatoes perfectly cope with the problem of skin aging. You need to add a couple of tablespoons of tomato or cucumber juice to it. Gently apply the mixture to the skin, and for greater effect, wrap your neck with plastic or cling film, wrapping it over a scarf. This natural mask has a slight lifting effect.
• Everyone knows that cucumber slices can improve the appearance of the skin, moisturize and refresh it. Likewise, you can use vegetables to nourish the cells of the dermis in the décolleté area. Spread the sliced ​​cucumbers over the skin, carefully wrap with cling film. Remove the mask after 15-20 minutes.

To get rid of wrinkles and sagging skin that have already appeared, all the same exercises and gymnastics help. Massage causes blood flow to the tissues and accelerates metabolic processes, so the nutrition of the cells becomes more intense.

The massage can be performed while sitting or standing, in a comfortable environment.

• With an open palm, we perform stroking movements from the ear to the clavicular region along the lateral surface of the neck. This movement helps warm up the décolleté and prepare the muscles for the next intense movement. Repeat 20 times on each side.
• Relax your shoulder, lower it a little, stroke from the clavicular region to the chin. The head can be tilted to the opposite side, feel the tension. Repeat on each side 20 times.
• On the sides of the neck, along the muscles, perform circular movements. Be careful, there are many capillaries in this area.
• We begin to pinch the skin from each side of the neck.

• It must be said that massage should not be done on the front of the neck, where the thyroid gland is located.
• From the center of the chest towards the axillary lymph nodes, make circular movements, repeat the massage on the other side.
• We do the previous exercise, but with the phalanges of the fingers.
• At the end of the massage, do the first stroking exercise.

It is recommended to use creams and oils, so the effect of the massage will be maximum. You will see that aging skin will be transformed within a month. A warm compress made from olive oil and honey also works well for wrinkles. The two ingredients must be mixed until a homogeneous consistency and distributed by hands on the neck and décolleté. Carefully wrap with cling film, and you can put on a scarf on top.

There are many operations that solve the problem of sagging skin, but these are radical methods. There are more gentle procedures that are performed by a beautician. Bio-skin is a new rejuvenation technique that moisturizes tissues inside and on the surface, smoothing wrinkles in the neckline and décolleté area. The thermal lifting procedure is absolutely painless. The doctor acts on the skin with a special apparatus, as a result you will feel warmth. Under the influence of waves, collagen walls will become denser, the skin will become more elastic and taut.

The set of exercises for training the neck is very effective. It is important to do them regularly to tone your neck muscles.

We will study the recommendations of specialists in detail.

• Do the workout daily, do not skip, otherwise there will be no result. Start to perform the exercises first with 5 repetitions, gradually increasing their number to 35-40.
• Exercise carefully, do not rush or increase the number of repetitions dramatically. All this can lead to injuries, for example, a muscle or nerve can "pinch" between the vertebrae.
• Take short breaks. If you feel pain, then it is better to stop the activity.

Now let's move on to the training itself.

• Basic head turns. Stand up straight and straighten your shoulders. Slowly tilt your head forward and touch your chin to your chest, then tilt your head to your right shoulder (do not change the position of your shoulders, they should be at the same level). Carefully move your head back, then to the second shoulder. Repeat the exercise.
• Head tilts to the right and left.Tilt your head 5-10 times alternately to the sides. If you feel normal, then you can perform at a faster pace.
• Turn your head to the side and stretch your chin towards your shoulder, while keeping it in position. Do an equal number of repetitions on each side.
• Take your hands behind your head, clasp them in a "lock". Place your hands on the back of your head and begin to press lightly. While contracting your neck muscles, resist the pressure from your hands. Don't overdo it or overextend your muscles.

• Sit at the table, put your elbows on its surface, clasp your hands in a "lock". Put your chin on your hands, with your hands, as it were, press upward, and your chin down.
• Gently take a pen, a brush in your teeth and in the air, print the numbers starting from 1, ending with 10. Repeat each number 2-3 times.
• Pronounce the sounds "o", "y", "and" with a drawl, as if humming. The vowel pronunciation involves the vastus muscle of the neck.
• Walk with a book on your head for at least 5 minutes a day. This will prevent the appearance of a double chin.

For preparation you will need: 1 tablespoon of milk, 1 teaspoon of gelatin and water, starch. Put water with gelatin in a water bath, add milk little by little. When the mixture is smooth, add the starch. Apply to the neck and décolleté, and as soon as the mask begins to dry, it will need to be washed off.

You will need cottage cheese, clay and purified water. First, mix the clay and water, then add the curd. Apply this mask to the skin, rinse off after 20 minutes. An express mask will help in one application to correct irregularities on the skin and smooth out wrinkles.

We have previously covered cosmetic procedures to prevent and eliminate skin laxity, in fact, there are many more methods for rejuvenating the skin.

• Bio-reinforcement is a procedure when tightening threads are inserted under the dermis. They can be soluble (gel-based) and insoluble (gold or platinum).

• Laser fractional resurfacing involves the application of mild laser burns, which rid the skin of dead cells and make the tissues elastic. After the procedure, a week of rehabilitation will be required. We recommend sanding in winter or autumn. Depending on the condition of the skin, one procedure or course is prescribed.
• Mesothreads are inserted into the skin using thin needles and act as a framework. The minimum number of needles is 10, and on average 50-70 needles are needed. The result is noticeable immediately, the skin becomes taut after the first procedure. But people still leave dissatisfied reviews, because after the operation, seals and bruises appear that do not go away for a long time.

Don't expect quick results, you will see noticeable improvements in a couple of months.
