What causes a saggy neck?
A double chin can occur as a result of accumulated fat in the neck or sagging of the skin under the chin. Both conditions can create the appearance of a saggy neck, sometimes called a turkey neck. A double chin is a common aesthetic problem of aging, although it can also appear in those who are overweight. In some instances it can be a case of genetics where a fuller neck is present from a young age often due to hereditary cause.
The first signs of under chin laxity tend to appear in your late twenties or early 30’s and can be improved with simple in clinic treatments such as Anti-ageing radio frequency facial applied to neck area and clearlift laser.
The average age for a double chin to appear from ageing alone is 40 years old. The skin under the jaw is poor in collagen and elastin, and as we get older these elements decrease, resulting in a saggy neck and turkey neck appearance at this point we recommend ultherapy neck treatment or profhilo neck treatment.
From 45 onwards you are likely to require a combination of treatment to visibly reduce the signs of aging such as a saggy neck, turkey neck and double chin at this point we recommend the Dr leah Lift for Neck.
