Neck and décolletageImproving texture, hydration and firmness
Four approaches, alone or combined, for the thin skin of the neck and décolletage.
The skin of the neck and décolletage is thinner than the skin of the face and often more exposed to the sun. Over time, it can become drier, crinkled, less firm and marked with fine lines.
The treatment is chosen according to the quality of your skin, how lax it is and your goals. We offer four approaches, alone or combined, to gradually improve the texture, hydration, density and firmness of this area.
Dermapen 4 microneedling
Dermapen 4 microneedling uses very fine micro-needles to stimulate the skin’s natural repair mechanisms and collagen production.
It can help improve crinkled texture, fine lines, dehydration and mild lack of firmness on the neck and décolletage.
Plan on about 6 sessions, then a maintenance session every 3 to 6 months, depending on your skin.
Dermapen 4 microneedling + PRP
PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is prepared from a small amount of your own blood. Used with the Dermapen 4, it brings the growth factors naturally found in your platelets to support the repair and quality of the skin.
This option is ideal when the goal is to work more deeply on texture, fine lines, hydration and skin density.
Plan on about 6 sessions, with maintenance suggested every 3 to 6 months.
Redensity 1
Redensity 1 is an injectable skin booster designed to improve skin quality without adding volume. It is especially useful for dull, dehydrated, thin or crinkled skin.
Its formula contains non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid, which draws water into the skin, along with a dermo-restructuring complex of amino acids, antioxidants, minerals and vitamin B6. It helps improve hydration, suppleness, radiance and the look of fine lines.
Plan on at least 2 to 3 sessions. A medical consultation is required before this injectable treatment.
Biostimulators: Radiesse and Sculptra
The biostimulators Radiesse and Sculptra encourage the skin to gradually produce its own collagen. They are suited to skin that is thinner, lax or lacking density and support.
Results develop gradually over the weeks.
Plan on at least 2 to 3 sessions. A medical consultation is required to determine the most suitable product.
Comparing the treatments
| Treatment | Main goal | Protocol |
|---|---|---|
| Dermapen 4 microneedling | Texture, fine lines, crinkled skin and mild firming | About 6 sessions + maintenance every 3 to 6 months |
| Dermapen 4 + PRP | Texture, hydration, fine lines and stronger stimulation | About 6 sessions + maintenance every 3 to 6 months |

Results and recovery
Results are gradual and natural. After microneedling, redness, warmth or tenderness can last 24 to 48 hours. After injections, slight redness, tenderness or small bruises are possible for a short time.
A consultation will assess the skin of your neck and décolletage, to choose the treatment, or combination of treatments, best suited to your needs.
