Neck lines
Why neck wrinkles become more visible
The skin on the neck is thinner than on the face, has fewer sebaceous glands and is constantly moving. Every time we bend our head, the skin folds in exactly the same places. Over the years, those folds no longer smooth out when we lift our chin and become horizontal lines, sometimes called ‘necklace lines’ or ‘Venus rings’.
On top of this comes so-called ‘tech neck’: the posture of looking down at a phone, tablet or laptop for hours. That is why we now see marked lines in people aged thirty or younger. Sun, smoking, dehydration and the loss of collagen with age do the rest.
Not all neck wrinkles are the same. Fine horizontal lines respond very well to techniques that hydrate and fill very superficially; vertical bands are caused by a muscle, the platysma, and are treated differently; and laxity across the whole area needs biostimulation. Telling them apart is the first step.
This treatment is for you if…
- You have one or more marked horizontal lines on your neck.
- You notice them even with your head held upright.
- You spend many hours looking at screens and the lines appeared early.
- The skin on your neck looks duller or thinner than on your face.
- You want to soften the wrinkles without surgery.
If your main concern is general laxity of the neck and décolletage, or a double chin, we will point you towards the most suitable treatment in the same consultation.
Types of wrinkles
What we treat on the neck
Vertical bands
When cords appear as you tense your neck, neuromodulators relax the platysma and define the contour better.

Treatments
How we treat neck wrinkles
A medical plan that combines techniques according to the type of wrinkle.
Fine filling
Superficial hyaluronic acid
A very fluid hyaluronic acid is used, placed in small amounts along each line. It is the most direct technique for horizontal lines that are already marked.
Hydration
Skinboosters
They improve the hydration and elasticity of all the skin on the neck, so fine lines are less noticeable.
See skinboosterCollagen
Biostimulators and polynucleotides
Suitable when the skin is thin or lax: they stimulate regeneration and collagen production to improve skin thickness.
Prevention
Habits and sun protection
We give you advice on posture in front of screens, hydration and sun protection for the neck, which help maintain the result.

Frequently asked questions
Questions about neck wrinkles
Can neck wrinkles be removed?
They can be softened noticeably, especially fine and medium horizontal lines. Deeper ones improve, but do not always disappear completely. During your consultation we tell you what is realistic in your case.
What is the difference between horizontal wrinkles and neck bands?
Horizontal lines are folds in the skin and are treated by filling and hydrating. Vertical bands are caused by contraction of the platysma muscle and are treated with neuromodulators. Many people have both, and the treatments are combined.
How many sessions do I need?
Horizontal lines are usually treated in one session, with the option of a small touch-up. Biostimulation and skinboosters are scheduled over several sessions a few weeks apart.
Does treating neck wrinkles hurt?
Anaesthetic cream is applied and very fine needles are used, so discomfort is mild. There may be small bumps or a bruise that fade within a few days.
What is tech neck and can it be prevented?
It is ageing of the neck associated with looking down for many hours. It helps to keep screens at eye level, take breaks, moisturise and protect your neck from the sun just as you do your face.
How long does the result last?
It depends on the technique and your skin. Hyaluronic acid is reabsorbed over time and new collagen ages naturally, so maintenance sessions are recommended.
When is this treatment not recommended?
We do not perform it during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with infections or active lesions on the skin of the neck, or with certain autoimmune diseases or clotting disorders that have not been assessed. If you have a lump or changes in your thyroid gland, your doctor should look into it first.
How much does neck wrinkle treatment cost in Torremolinos?
It depends on the techniques you need. At your free consultation we give you a fixed, no-obligation quote.
