The treatment of skin aging is primarily associated with the face. Other areas such as the hands, neck area and decollete receive much less attention. However, these areas are also susceptible to the aging process and must therefore be well protected.<\/p>\n

Not only does the face age…<\/h2>\n

Very often we situate skin aging in the face. We find it logical that we need to protect our face. We find it normal that in time peelings, laser treatments, injectables or surgical procedures are frequently used to make the face look fresh and taut again.<\/p>\n

The same care should actually go to the hands, neck and d\u00e9collet\u00e9. Without proper protection, the skin will age in these areas as well. A number of factors only accelerate this process: winter cold, UV radiation, hot water and\/or soap and the use of paint or chemicals.<\/p>\n

Avoid Contrast<\/h2>\n

If we give the d\u00e9colletage, hands and neck less attention than the face, there is a chance that there will be a contrast. The skin on the face then looks better than that in the “forgotten zones. On the hands, neck or d\u00e9collet\u00e9, for example, the skin is then saggier or thinner. Often we also see pronounced UV damage, such as rosacea or pigmentation.<\/p>\n
