NECK & DECOLLETAGE Biostimulator Biostimulators are regenerative injectables that prompt your body to naturally produce new collagen and elastin. This is used to tighten and lift the skin, not ad volume. Diluted Radiese — this this fluid is fanned into the subdermal layer of the skin to trigger collagen production without adding significant volume Energy-Based Treatments Some treatments indirectly support skin quality by enhancing collagen or tightening skin: SkinPen Microneedling — tiny controlled skin injuries trigger collagen production and enhance texture. Radiofrequency Microneedling (e.g., Secret RF) — the device uses microneedles to create micro-injuries while simultaneously delivering fractional RF energy into the dermis, this combination triggers the body's natural healing process, stimulating new collagen and elastin production. Laser Skin Rejuvenation (e.g., Fraxel®, Laser Genesis, Pearl/Pearl Fractional) — laser procedures that stimulate collagen, reduce fine lines, sun damage and improve skin texture. CO2 Laser (e.g., Tetra Pro) — an advanced fractional carbon dioxide laser used for skin resurfacing. It treats wrinkles, sun damage, acne scars and uneven texture by stimulating new collagen production. HydraFacials & Chemical Peels Procedures that exfoliate, hydrate and refresh the skin surface: HydraFacial — cleans, exfoliates and hydrates skin, potentially improving texture and elasticity on the chest/neck. Chemical Peels (SkinMedica®) — remove superficial dead skin layers to reduce fine lines and pigmentation, often combined with other treatments. Best for surface-level texture issues and a brighter, smoother appearance. Injectables While most injectable use at in the Christie Clinic Department of Dermatology is focused on the face, some products may be used around the neck region to reduce fine lines: Neuromodulators (Botox® Cosmetic, Dysport, Xeomin, DAXXIFY) — temporarily relaxes the muscles that cause moderate to severe lines and wrinkles. Results usually begin within a few days and last several months. A consultation will confirm whether these options are appropriate for your goals. Professional Skincare for Neck & Décolletage In addition to in-office procedures, Christie Clinic Department of Dermatology offers medical-grade skincare products (e.g., retinoids, peptides, sunscreens, antioxidants) tailored to anti-aging and rejuvenation — which are especially important in thin, sun-exposed areas like the neck and chest. What to Expect Because neck and décolletage skin ages differently than facial skin and is more sensitive, providers usually start with a custom consultation to assess your skin quality, sun damage and aging signs before recommending a plan — often combining multiple treatments for optimal results.
