Science

NECK VS. FACE: DIFFERENT RESPONSES TO AGING

Neck skin is different than facial skin, with a thinner and more delicate dermal layer. With fewer lipids than skin on the face, the neck’s skin barrier can weaken as early as age 30. These properties, combined with the neck’s constant movement, can lead to wrinkles that are up to five times deeper than on the face. The combination of skin laxity and crepiness – plus thin, fragile skin similar to the eye area – makes neck aging particularly difficult to treat.

Tripeptide-R Neck Repair is a high-performance retinol cream that targets early to advanced signs of visible neck aging. This treatment is specifically formulated for the neck combining a hydrating delivery system with a tri-functional corrective technology composed of 0.2% pure retinol, 2.5% tripeptide concentrate, and 5.0% glaucine complex to help ensure it delivers improvement on visible signs of aging.
