The skin on the neck is thin, making it prone to wrinkles, and the muscles are weak and lose elasticity easily. [사진=게티이미지뱅크]There is a saying that neck wrinkles do not lie regarding age. The face can be made plump, but the neck is difficult to maintain. The skin is thin and the muscles are weak, so it loses elasticity easily and wrinkles easily form. Wrinkles may appear horizontally or vertically, or in both directions. Why is that?
The neck wrinkles we generally think of are wrinkles that occur horizontally. Horizontal wrinkles are influenced by lifestyle habits rather than age. This is why horizontal neck wrinkles appear even in young people.
In contrast, vertical wrinkles are directly related to aging. As we age, not only are we unable to overcome the force of gravity, but the smooth muscles in our necks also weaken. The platysma muscle is a muscle that supports the entire neck, and when the teeth become stretched, vertical wrinkles appear. Of course, horizontal wrinkles also deepen with age. However, if there are only horizontal wrinkles and no vertical wrinkles, there is a high probability that lifestyle habits are the cause.
What is the posture that makes neck wrinkles more likely to form in daily life? Sitting with your head down or forward for a long time causes deep wrinkles across the neck. Lying down at a desk also causes the skin on the sides and back of the neck to fold, making wrinkles worse. Additionally, poor posture strains the muscles and ligaments at the back of the neck, causing wrinkles, pain, and fatigue.
To prevent neck wrinkles… Avoid high pillows and pay attention to moisturizing your neck.
There are limits to covering neck wrinkles with clothes, and removing them requires treatment or surgery, so it is important to take care of them in advance. First, to prevent neck wrinkles, it is best to avoid high pillows. When you sleep on a high pillow, your head bends excessively, as if it were lowered. When lying straight facing the ceiling, a pillow height of 6 to 10 cm from the floor to the hollow of the back of the neck is appropriate.
When using a computer, tablet PC, etc., you must adjust it to eye level. If the monitor is low, you have no choice but to bend your neck, which causes your skin to fold. The same goes for smartphones. When using a smartphone, you should raise your hands high and avoid tilting your head down. It is also helpful to stretch frequently while using electronic devices. Tilt your head back and hold for 5 to 10 seconds. It is also good to move your head and make movements to smooth out wrinkles.
The skin on your neck needs as much care as your face. Just as you apply lotion to your face following washing your face, you should also apply moisturizing cream and moisturizer to your neck. The neck is prone to dryness as it has no sebaceous glands, but if the oil-water balance is disrupted, it becomes even drier. When skin is dry, its elasticity decreases and wrinkles easily form. After applying moisturizer to your neck, it is a good idea to massage your neck up from the bottom with your hands.
