Neck Wrinkles: How to Prevent and Treat Them.
“Lightness is proper to the age that is rising, wisdom to the age that is setting.”, said Cicero. In short, over the years the carefree typical of youth fades, but there is a positive aspect: you gain in experience.
Yes, because every stage of life has its flowers to pick. You just have to know how to do it the right way.
Daily cleansing: not just the face
Many women - but also many men - are particularly concerned about maintaining young and soft skin for as long as possible. They do it first of all with a daily facial cleansing, a beauty ritual that allows you to moisturize and cleanse the skin And protect her from atmospheric agents and pollution.
Nourishing and purifying the dermis every day is essential to achieve effective beauty results and prolong our external youth and feeling at ease with ourselves over time. A ritual that must involve not only the face, but also the neck, among the areas of the body most exposed to the elements and the action of external factors.
Yes, the neck! Sometimes we forget about it, yet it is together with the face one of the areas most involved in the onset of the first wrinkles. But what are the warning signs to which we should pay the utmost attention?
Symptoms of aging neck
Among the most common symptoms of theneck aging there are:
Loss of skin elasticity
As the years go by, the skin tends to lose elasticity: this is unfortunately normal. On the neck this turns into loose skin and in less toned tissues. An effect even more evident than in other areas of the body: the skin on the neck is in fact much thinner and has fewer sebaceous glands, making it an easy target for premature aging.
Appearance of horizontal wrinkles
Connected to the loss of elasticity of the skin on the neck is the appearance of horizontal wrinkles. An annoying “natural necklace” from which the name “Rings of Venus” with which this phenomenon is known.
But why do horizontal wrinkles appear? It is easy to say: by giving in to the force of gravity, the skin loses in structure and tends to let itself fall. Another reason could be the poor hydration.
Appearance of vertical wrinkles
To ensure that we don't miss anything, horizontal wrinkles can be combined with the vertical wrinkles. Once again favored by the loss of tone and elasticity, vertical wrinkles have an easy life in those who tend to sleep in an incorrect position, maintaining the bent neck.
We know that you can't control sleep: however, there are pillows on the market that are specifically designed to help us assume a correct posture during the night.
Sagging skin under the chin
Another sign of aging neck is sagging skin under the chin. The reduction of collagen, as normally happens with the increase in age, results in a excessively sagging skin, far from its original compactness.
Exercises and gymnastics to remove wrinkles from the neck and décolleté
There are natural methods for remove or at least to attenuate the neck wrinkles and of the décolleté? Certainly yes! With a little consistency you can get really brilliant results. Here are some recommended exercises:
Exercise 1
Sit on a chair, keep your back straight and bend your head back, pointing your chin towards the ceiling. Close your mouth and then slowly move your lips pretending to chew: your facial and neck muscles will start to make themselves felt!
Exercise 2
Sitting again on a chair with your back straight and close to the backrest, keep your neck straight and bring your lips forward, simulating in an exaggerated way the letters “o”, “u” and “x” for at least 5 seconds each. Repeat this exercise 10 consecutive times.
Exercise 3
We're exaggerating again! Standing shut your mouth and then let go in a broad smile, as wide as you can, being careful to keep your lips closed. Hold the position for 10 seconds and then push your lips forward like you're kissing someone. The more you exaggerate with the movements, the more you will feel your neck muscles tense.
Exercise 4
Give yourself a moment of relaxation with a self-massage: stretch the features of your neck with the palm of your hand, as if you were spreading cream on yourself. Perform slow pressures and gentle movements, proceeding from the bottom towards the other with slow and soft pressures. You will feel your muscles more relaxed and help your circulation improve: try it and believe it!
