What are neck wrinkles
Neck wrinkles are lines that form on the skin of the neck when it loses elasticity and tone.
The skin of the neck is very delicate and dries out easily. In addition, the neck moves continuously throughout the day, and this causes the skin to bend and mark, resulting in expression lines and wrinkles.
Neck wrinkles can be horizontal or vertical:
- Horizontal wrinkles are those that form on the front of the neck, due to age or other external factors such as poor posture
- Vertical wrinkles are those that form on the sides of the neck, when the skin loses the substances that make it toned, such as collagen and elastin.
What causes wrinkles on the neck
How do wrinkles form on the neck? These types of wrinkles are caused by several factors, including:
- Age: As the years go by, the skin of the neck produces less collagen and elastin, which are the substances that make it elastic and toned. The skin on the neck relaxes and “sags”, giving rise to wrinkles.
- The sun: UV rays dry, oxidize and ruin elastin and collagen fibers, accelerating the aging process of the skin. In addition, they can cause dark spots and discoloration, which make the skin on the neck less even.
- Posture: the position you hold when sleeping, working and, above all, when using your mobile, can affect the formation of neck wrinkles. If you keep your neck bent or tilted for a long time, creases will form, which will then become permanent. Pay particular attention to when you hold your mobile in your hand in bed: in that horizontal position, the crease on the neck becomes more pronounced and deep, and is one of the main causes of the formation of expression lines on the neck.
- Smoking: smoking, as we know, is bad for the skin in general, and then it makes your neck muscles contract, thus contributing to the formation of wrinkles.
Venus necklaces: what they are
Venus necklaces are horizontal lines that form on the front of the neck, particularly on the throat area. Did you know that they are called that, because they look like the necklaces that the goddess of love wore?
What is the difference between wrinkles on the neck and Venus necklaces?
The necklaces of Venus on the neck are not real wrinkles, but folds of the skin, or rather, expression lines that are formed not by age, but by a wrong posture or the shape of the neck. They are in fact the typical wrinkles on the neck that appear in your 20s, but you don’t have to worry, they are much more common than you think!
The neck is made up of several layers of muscles, which overlap and cross, sometimes creating small depressions in the skin. Venus necklaces are therefore individual features, which can be more or less visible depending on the person. However, with age, they tend to become deeper and more pronounced, because the skin loses tone and elasticity.
1. How to Prevent Wrinkles on the Neck
To prevent the formation of wrinkles on the neck, it is important to follow 3 daily precautions, which will help you keep your skin hydrated, protected and toned:
- Moisturize your neck skin every day with an anti-wrinkle cream, such as BeOnMe’s organic Hydra Silk anti-aging Face Cream. The cream should be applied with gentle movements and upwards, from the bottom up, to circulate the blood and tone the tissues.
- Do neck exercises: There are exercises that help strengthen the muscles and counteract sagging skin. These are simple movements to do every day, such as turning your neck, tilting it to side or pushing your chin back and forth.
- Correct your posture: To prevent neck wrinkles, it is important to maintain a correct posture, whether you are sleeping, working or using your mobile. We recommend that you sleep on a low, soft pillow that doesn’t raise your neck too high; to hold the computer or mobile phone at eye level, so as not to bend the neck; and to take frequent breaks to relax the neck muscles.
Diet and lifestyle also affect the health and beauty of the skin. For a correct neck wrinkle prevention strategy, you should:
- Eat a balanced diet that provides your skin with all the nutrients it needs, such as vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, proteins, and antioxidants.
- Quit smoking: as anticipated, cigarette smoking is one of the worst enemies of the skin of the neck, as it compromises its health and beauty. Smoking, in fact, reduces the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the skin and increases the production of free radicals. In addition, smoking causes the neck muscles to contract, thus promoting the formation of wrinkles. For this reason, quitting smoking is one of the most important gestures to prevent neck wrinkles and improve the appearance of the skin in general.
- Sleep well: Sleep is essential for skin regeneration, because during sleep the skin produces more collagen and elastin, the proteins that support the structure of the skin. Sleeping well, therefore, helps prevent neck wrinkles and keep the skin supple and toned. Remember to adopt a position that allows you to keep your neck flat and choose a low pillow that does not make your neck bend.
How to Prevent Venus Necklaces
Remedies for Venus necklaces on the neck? You can effectively reduce and prevent these expression lines by following the same advice that applies to neck wrinkles. And in addition, you can follow some specific remedies in both cases, such as:
- Apply a natural antioxidant serum to the neck: A serum is a concentrated product, which goes deep into the skin. We recommend a serum based on anti-aging active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and goji berry extract that help to counteract the signs of aging and keep the skin toned and smooth.
- Apply the anti-aging cream with lifting massages: do them from the bottom up. They are useful for improving circulation and oxygenation of the skin of the neck, and for relaxing the muscles. You can do them with your fingers, with a jade or quartz roller, or with ultrasonic devices, which make the products enter the skin better.
- Apply masks: masks are intensive treatments that nourish and moisturize the skin of the neck. We recommend using the BeOnMe natural moisturizing mask with xylitols that will give with its formula impregnated with moisturizing actives, the splash and nutrients that the skin of your body needs.

2. How to care for neck skin
An important step that you should never forget if you want to maintain a beautiful and smooth neck skin is that of cleansing. Often, when doing skincare, we neglect the neck, due to forgetfulness or laziness. As on the face, however, smog, sweat and impurities accumulate on the neck which, if not removed every day, will make the skin age faster.
Here’s how to clean your neck of impurities:
- Use the delicate Organic Aloe Cleansing Mousse morning and evening, which like a cloud removes all impurities while leaving the skin hydrated. If you also use foundation on your neck, remember to dissolve it with Organic Cornflower Micellar Water and then apply the Cleansing Mousse.
- Once a week, take care of your neck with a gentle exfoliating scrub such as BeOnMe’s aloe-based organic face scrub, which smoothes the skin while leaving it perfectly hydrated.
- After the scrub, apply the organic Purifying Mask in transparent lipogel with purifying seaweed extracts and sage hydrosol: it intensely purifies without drying out and helps to improve the skin’s texture: it will be smoother and silkier to the touch!

If neck wrinkles are already present, you don’t have to despair, because there are remedies that can help you considerably improve the appearance of your skin.
Natural Remedies for Neck Wrinkles

Medical Treatments for Neck Wrinkles

Before making any choices, contact a trusted dermatologist, and possibly look for the most reviewed center in your city for aesthetic neck surgeries.
Excluding botox injections, which in our opinion are outdated interventions that can give unnatural aesthetic results, to remove wrinkles on the neck you could rather consider more natural fillers, such as those based on hyaluronic acid: it is injected into wrinkles, in order to reduce their visibility and make the skin appear more toned.
Or radiofrequency, a treatment that uses electromagnetic waves, which heat the tissues of the neck, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. In this way, the skin of the neck is tightened and smoothed, and the wrinkles of the neck are reduced.
Some also recommend hiding wrinkles on the neck with makeup or clothing, but we believe that these gestures can make us more insecure and do not make us live well with our body and our beauty.
Remember, first of all, it is important to take care of your skin with healthy and correct lifestyle and skincare habits. And then, a pinch of self-love is always needed, as a secret ingredient of every beauty strategy!
Remember that your neck is an important part of your appearance, and that it deserves the same care and attention as your face. With our tips, you can eliminate and reduce neck wrinkles and regain the beauty and youthfulness of your neck!
