How To Prevent Neck Wrinkles

Neck wrinkles become more noticeable with age, particularly when the collagen and elastin in the skin begin to break down. The main cause of these wrinkles is sun exposure, as too much exposure to ultraviolet rays will speed up the breakdown of collagen and dries skin out, heightening your risk of premature wrinkles. One thing you can do for neck wrinkles is to wash your neck daily with a moisturizing soap that does not contain any fragrances or harsh chemicals. Next, make sure to take supplements or eat foods rich in Vitamin C in order to build your collagen and fight free-radicals that attack skin cells.

Another way to prevent neck wrinkles is to apply a moisturizer after cleansing skin. It is best to do this when skin is still damp because that is when it absorbs and retains moisture better. Avocado oil is great because it is rich in humectants. If the product contains alpha hydroxyl acids or beta hydroxyl acids that is even better. Also, do not neglect your sunscreen, as too much sun exposure is responsible for creating neck wrinkles in the first place. Aim for something in the SPF 30 range or higher.
