For many over the age of forty, the neck increasingly becomes an area of focus. The neck shows severe signs of ageing through loose, excess or crepey skin. This raises the questions of where does this loose skin come from and why does this happen to the neck and how can I stop it? An excellent neck treatment at The Cosmetic Skin Clinic is Ultherapy in Buckinghamshire. This treatment targets the neck to give you firmer, tighter, and more slender neck contour. We explain ageing factors that affect your neck and all you need to know about the revolutionary Ultherapy treatment.
The undeniable relationship between your neck and the process of ageing:
Did you know that the skin on your neck is even thinner than the skin on your face? However, the skin on your neck and the face goes through the exact same ageing as the years go on. The results can be more noticeable on the neck due to its thinness, and that it falls into the same trap as our hands and face, that it is usually exposed to the elements because of the neckline of our clothes.
The necks thin skin can be a victim of the natural process of ageing in which we lose collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are vital as they act as the scaffolding to youthful looking skin. Over the years, our levels decrease, making way to the appearance of sagging and wrinkles that can give away our age or even make us look older than we are.
Ageing is a concept we cannot escape but we can endure it gracefully with the help of ultrasound treatments that give natural results.
Preventative steps to protect your neck from rapidly ageing:
- Protect it from UV rays
- The sun is a leading factor in ageing. We should be wearing SPF every day, no matter if you see clouds and no sun, the sun’s rays can still reach you. When you put on sun lotion on your face, include your neck too.
- Use products that contain retinoids
- When you next pick a neck cream, make sure it contains retinoids. Retinoids can help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, repair sun damage and can stimulate collagen production. This works to give you the appearance of smoother skin.
- Keep an eye on your posture
- With all this technology, from our laptops to our phones, our posture is suffering. Sitting hunched has affected our neck muscles to contract and curve. This can create lines and coupled with decreasing collagen this will become deeper and more obvious. Fixing your posture won’t be the complete answer to ageing skin on the neck, but it’s a step in the right direction.
The above are preventative measures, but to tackle more progressive signs of ageing on the neck we need to go deeper. The appearance of the skin’s surface can be improved but when the signs of ageing are more advanced, we need to go below the surface to fix it. This can be done with Ultherapy in Buckinghamshire.

Accepting having a turkey neck is now no longer a feature you must live with as you age. You can continue to age gracefully, but without the turkey neck ordeal and without going under the knife. With no surgery or dramatic appearance reveal, Ultherapy in Buckinghamshire is the perfect answer.
What is Ultherapy?
Ultherapy is a leading FDA-cleared treatment for lifting and tightening the skin on the neck but also for the face, chin, brow, decolletage and more.
How does Ultherapy work?
Through using micro-focused Ultrasound (MFU-V) with visualisation, Ultherapy delivers energy to the same depth of skin targeted by surgeons performing a facelift. By targeting the root cause of the ageing problem, Ultherapy focuses on the breakdown of vital proteins underneath the surface. The ultrasound technology deeply penetrates three layers in the skin(dermis) right down to the muscle level to stimulate collagen production.

Ultherapy benefits
This treatment leads the aesthetic market as a collagen booster and is known as the Gold-Standard treatment for skin lifting and tightening. It works to stimulate the natural renewal of collagen and elastin to give rejuvenating results. Key Ultherapy benefits are how it:
- Creates a fresh, natural, and rejuvenated appearance
- Doesn’t require general anaesthetic
- Regenerates natural collagen and elastin stores
- Tightens and firms skin texture
- Lifts sagging and drooping skin
- Is a completely non-invasive and non-surgical treatment
- Has no downtime, recovery time, scarring or injections
When do you see Ultherapy results?
Patients see an initial lift after their first treatment, but the full results of your bounced back skin will become more obvious over a 3–6-month period.
How long does Ultherapy last?
Patients treated with Ultherapy at our Buckinghamshire clinic have seen their results last for over a year. The ageing process of losing collagen unfortunately continues, so we always recommend spacing out a few touch-up treatments to keep rebuilding collagen.
Who is the ideal patient for Ultherapy?
At our clinic, we get men and women of all different ages for Ultherapy treatment. Dr Tracy Mountford says the ideal candidate for Ultherapy is anyone who is “beginning to get a little bit of laxity in the lower face or drop where it’s not enough for surgical face lifting but it’s certainly enough to be a concern.”
