“Turkey neck”, the term used to describe loose, sagging skin and vertical neck bands, is one of the most common signs of aging. As collagen and elastin production decline, the skin loses firmness and elasticity, resulting in drooping under the chin and along the jawline. Thankfully, modern non-surgical turkey neck treatments can effectively tighten and lift the skin without the need for invasive surgery or long downtime.At Epione, world-renowned aesthetic specialist Dr. Simon Ourian offers some of the most advanced non-surgical neck rejuvenation techniques available today. His refined approach to treating “turkey neck” focuses on restoring youthful definition through customized procedures such as RF (radiofrequency) skin tightening, HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound), and thread lifts. Each treatment plan is tailored to the patient’s unique anatomy, ensuring results that are natural, elegant, and proportionate.Top Non-Surgical Treatments for Turkey NeckRF Skin Tightening: This technology delivers controlled radiofrequency energy into the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production. Over time, the skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more lifted. RF skin tightening is particularly effective for reducing mild to moderate laxity while maintaining a natural look, with no surgery and minimal recovery.HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound): HIFU targets the deep structural layers of the skin using focused ultrasound energy. Often described as a non-surgical neck lift, it gently lifts and tightens without damaging the skin’s surface. Results continue to improve over several months as new collagen develops, providing a gradual yet noticeable lift.Thread Lifts: For immediate lifting and contouring, PDO thread lifts offer an effective solution. Dissolvable sutures are strategically placed beneath the skin to reposition sagging tissue while triggering collagen production. As the threads dissolve naturally, they leave behind a firmer, more youthful foundation.
