How Does Skin Tightening for My Neck Work?
Aug 11, 2025
As our skin ages, one of the first places we often notice changes is the neck. That once-smooth skin may begin to sag, wrinkle, or lose its firmness, frequently faster than the face.
Fortunately, there are numerous nonsurgical options to help lift and tighten skin. Two of the most effective are Morpheus8 and BroadBand Light™ (BBL).
Our team at Gago Wellness in Brighton, Michigan, often recommends these advanced therapies to help lift and tighten skin, including on the neck.
Here’s more about why your neck often ages more rapidly than the face and how these treatments work.
The face gets a lot of attention when it comes to wrinkles, saggy skin, and other age-related changes. However, you’re not alone if you’ve noticed the skin on your neck seems to age much faster than that on your face.
That’s because skin on the neck is thinner and has fewer oil glands than facial skin, making it more prone to dryness, sagging, and the formation of horizontal lines and “crepey” texture.
Gravity, sun damage, and loss of collagen all play a role. However, advanced technologies like Morpheus8 and BBL can help turn back the clock without the need for surgery.
Morpheus8 is a cutting-edge skin rejuvenation treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy. Tiny needles penetrate the skin to create micro-injuries that stimulate your body’s natural healing response.
At the same time, the device delivers RF energy deep into the skin, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin—the proteins responsible for firm, youthful skin.
When applied to the neck, Morpheus8 can help:
Results are often visible after a single session, but your Gago Wellness provider may recommend a series of treatments for the most noticeable and long-lasting improvement.
Most people experience some redness or mild swelling after either treatment, but these effects usually subside within a few days. As collagen continues to build over time, skin gradually becomes firmer and smoother, often with results that continue to improve for weeks.
We also find the best results in patients who combine the benefits of Morpheus and BBL, alternating treatments over several months yields the best results, and yearly maintenance can provide ongoing benefits and more lasting results, even as aging continues
