Turkey neck—characterized by sagging, wrinkled skin under the chin and along the neck—is a common concern as we age.

At Transcend Rejuvenation, we believe in combining science, aesthetics, and care to help you restore confidence. Let’s explore the causes, non-surgical options, and advanced treatments available for turkey neck.

What Is Turkey Neck?

Turkey neck refers to loose, sagging skin and weakened neck muscles that create a wrinkled or drooping appearance.

• Causes include: natural aging, loss of collagen and elastin, genetics, sun exposure, and lifestyle factors.
• It can affect both men and women, often appearing earlier than facial wrinkles.

Can You Prevent Turkey Neck?

While aging is inevitable, preventive steps can slow down its progression:

• Sun protection: Daily use of SPF on the neck and décolletage.
• Healthy lifestyle: Balanced diet, hydration, and avoiding smoking.
• Skincare routine: Incorporating retinoids, peptides, and firming creams.

Non-Surgical Treatments for Turkey Neck

Neck Exercises

Gentle exercises may help strengthen neck muscles, though they cannot remove excess skin. Still, they can complement other treatments.

Cosmetic Treatments

• Botox or Dysport: Relax platysma bands that contribute to neck lines.
• Dermal Fillers: Restore volume and smooth wrinkles.
• Radiofrequency & Ultrasound Therapy: Stimulate collagen production for tighter skin.

Advanced Medspa Non-Surgical Treatments for Turkey Neck 

At Transcend Rejuvenation, we offer non-invasive skin tightening treatments tailored to your needs. These procedures deliver gradual, natural-looking results without downtime.

Why PDO Threading Matters for Turkey Neck

• What it is: PDO (Polydioxanone) Threading involves inserting dissolvable sutures under the skin to lift and tighten sagging areas.
• Benefits:
• Immediate lifting effect with continued collagen stimulation over time.
• Minimally invasive, with little downtime compared to surgery.
• Works well for mild to moderate sagging under the chin and jawline.

Why CO2 Laser Resurfacing Matters for Turkey Neck

• What it is: CO2 laser uses targeted beams to remove damaged skin layers and stimulate new collagen growth.
• Benefits:
• Improves skin texture, tightens loose skin, and reduces fine lines.
• Can be combined with other treatments (like fillers or threads) for enhanced results.
• Effective for patients with significant sun damage or crepey skin.

Surgical Options for Turkey Neck

For more dramatic improvement, plastic surgery may be recommended:

• Neck Lift: Removes excess skin and tightens underlying muscles.
• Liposuction: Targets stubborn fat under the chin.
• Combination Procedures: Often paired with facelift for comprehensive rejuvenation.

Choosing the Right Treatment

The best approach depends on:

• Severity of sagging
• Skin quality and elasticity
• Desired results and recovery time

At Transcend Rejuvenation, our specialists provide personalized consultations to design a plan that balances safety, effectiveness, and your aesthetic goals.
