Neck Check: The Wrinkle You Didn’t See Coming

The modern wrinkle caused by phones, laptops, and endless scrolling. We all know to protect our face with SPF and invest in serums for that youthful glow. But what about your neck? For many people, the first fine lines of aging aren’t on their forehead, they’re the faint creases that suddenly appear below the jawline. And in today’s world, there’s a modern culprit behind it: Tech Neck.

Scroll Lines: The New Sign of Aging Everyone’s Talking About

Tech Neck is the term for the lines and sagging that come from constantly looking down at our phones, laptops, and tablets. Add in a summer of UV exposure, and the delicate skin on your neck and chest can start showing signs of aging faster than you expect.

“Your neck has fewer oil glands and less collagen than your face,” says Dr. Kaplan. “That makes it thinner, more fragile, and more likely to show wrinkles early on. Patients are often surprised to learn that the neck can age even faster than the face.”

The Skincare Step Almost Everyone Forgets

The skin on your neck isn’t just an extension of your face, it behaves differently. It stretches and bends with every scroll, every glance down at a screen, and it doesn’t bounce back as easily. Sun exposure only makes things worse, leaving behind discoloration and uneven tone.

“The truth is, most people stop their skincare at the jawline,” says Dr. Kaplan. “But your neck is one of the first areas that gives away your age. It deserves the same level of care, if not more.”

The Luxury Fix for Screens, Sun, and Sagging

Recognizing this overlooked area, Dr. Kaplan developed the Diamond Contour Lifting Rose Quartz Neck Serum. Designed specifically for the neck and décolleté, this advanced formula uses his patented Diamond Contour® Technology to visibly lift and firm while improving texture and brightness.

The cooling rose quartz applicator is more than just beautiful, it helps boost circulation, reduces puffiness, and makes application feel like a daily ritual rather than just another step.

“Patients often ask me about fillers or lasers for their neck,” Dr. Kaplan explains. “But with consistent use of a targeted formula, you can see meaningful improvements without an invasive procedure.”

Your Neck Called — It Wants Skincare Too

Tech Neck might be a sign of modern life, but that doesn’t mean you have to live with it. As you shift your skincare routine from summer to fall, make sure it doesn’t end at your chin.

Treat your neck with the same luxury you give your face because glowing, youthful skin shouldn’t stop at the jawline.
