4. Neck & Décolletage Markers

Cervicomental Angle (Jaw-to-Neck Angle)

Angle Definition:

Measures the crisp distinction where the jaw ends and the neck begins.

Profile Sharpness:

Target angle sits between 105° and 120° for a defined profile.

Contour Lift:

Identifies early softening to apply targeted tightening therapies.

Platysmal Banding & Muscle Laxity

Vertical Neck Bands:

Checks for prominent vertical muscle cords that appear during speech or exertion.

Dynamic Strain:

Evaluates how neck muscle activity pulls down on lower facial features.

Smoothing Approaches:

Guides muscle-relaxing micro-treatments to smooth out neck lines.

Horizontal Cervical Creases ("Tech Neck")

Etched Lines:

Assesses transverse rings formed by habitual neck bending and phone use.

Dermal Thinning:

Evaluates collagen loss within these delicate crease lines.

Targeted Hydration:

Combines skin-boosters with collagen stimulators to soften ring lines.

Décolletage Photodamage & Poikiloderma

Mottled Pigmentation:

Checks for patchy redness, brown spots, and sun damage across the chest.

Textural Crepiness:

Evaluates fine, fan-shaped wrinkles that form over the sternum.

Skin Restoration:

Uses gentle resurfacing and vascular lasers to restore smooth, clear skin.

Skin Laxity & Crepiness

Submental Elasticity:

Pinches and tests recoil on delicate under-chin and chest skin.

Collagen Loss:

Identifies thin, crepe-like surface textures early.

Firming Therapies:

Directs skin-tightening modalities to rebuild dermal thickness.
