How to firm up sagging neck skin
is a question that bedevils a lot of women who think their skin
is pretty good, otherwise.
In fact, it's interesting how
many of us believe sagging neck skin is going to give us away,
no matter what.
But how to firm up sagging neck
skin is an issue that does NOT have to be answered by a surgeon's
knife.
You can reverse sagging neck
skin by nourishment, moisturizing and protection from damage,
just as you can nourish your skin everywhere else.
Start by addressing the main
causes of sagging neck skin and all problems of aging skin. Here
they are: |
|
1. Loss of natural collagen and
elastin, the primary ingredients in healthy skin;
2. reduced levels of hyaluronic
acid, also called hyaluronan, which is vital to cell growth in
the skin;
3. and oxidation from excessive
free radicals in your skin.
1. To firm up sagging neck skin,
a skincare product must stimulate collagen, elastin and the regrowth
of new skin cells. As your collagen and elastin levels increase,
your neck skin will get firmer and softer, the wrinkles will
slowly disappear.
There are skincare ingredients
that also reduce fine lines and wrinkles in the neck and promote
firmness and elasticity in the skin.
One of them, called Functional
Keratin, is a natural substance extracted from the wool of New
Zealand sheep. Keratin is a protein found throughout the body,
an important structural component in skin and nails. The ability
to convert natural keratin into a functional form that is readily
available to the skin is a recent breakthrough.
2. For raising the levels of
hyaluronic acid, a remarkable ingredient is wakame, a variety
of kelp, native to Japan. In Japan, wakame is extensively cultivated
and eaten both fresh and dried, for its health-giving properties,
including its ability to keep the skin looking young and beautiful.
A refined, trademarked version
called Phytessence Wakame also inhibits the activity of hyaluronidase,
an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid in the skin. Hyaluronic
acid, together with elastin and collagen, is essential to maintain
the elasticity, smoothness and tone of the skin to firm up your
sagging neck skin.
3. Coenzyme Q10 is a superb antioxidant.
If you can, look for Coenzyme Q10 in "nano-emulsion"
form, for better penetration into the skin. It is extremely effective
at destroying free radicals in your skin for a great anti-wrinkle
effect.
