The skin on our neck and chest is much thinner than the skin on our face —and it’s where age spots and wrinkles tend to show up first. The neck and décolletage have less fatty tissue and collagen, which can lead to the dreaded turkey neck and saggy skin.
Although turkey neck and saggy neck are terms that are often lumped together, they have different underlying causes. Crepiness is usually caused by damage from UV rays, which break down elastin fibers in the skin. Chalk up turkey neck to a loss of skin elasticity and gravity working against you, which are all part of the natural aging process. Tech neck is also something to think about. If your neck is always craned over a smartphone or a computer, it can be damaging to your spine and exacerbate fine lines and wrinkles on the neck.
