In today’s era, everyone desires a youthful and beautiful look as they age. In this regard, many non-invasive and minimally invasive facial and neck rejuvenation procedures are most sought after by patients. Neck rejuvenation is of priority among patients in recent days as it significantly contributes to the overall aesthetic outcome. Therefore, as good dermatologists, we must have a sound knowledge of the anatomy of the neck, and various clinical signs of neck aging and choose the right modality of treatment with good acceptability and fewer adverse effects to obtain the desired aesthetic outcome. Neck aging is due to intrinsic as well as extrinsic factors and manifests as skin dyspigmentation, laxity, rhytides, loss of mandibular contour, widening of the cervicomental angle, accumulation of submental fat, volume loss, and prominence of the platysmal bands. A wide range of therapeutic options is available to address these concerns. In addition, it is also imperative to advise patients to follow a good skincare regime that includes moisturizers, sunscreens, and retinol creams to have a better outcome. It is the combination approach that often produces the most optimal outcome. The treatment plan for rejuvenation must be modified for every individual based on the degree of neck aging and their expectations.
