Tech Neck And How To Counter It
The neck is typically the first area of the body to show visible signs of ageing. There are numerous reasons for this, which include the skin on the neck being thinner than on other parts of the body (making it prone to losing elasticity), the skin being exposed to UV light over time, and this region simply being neglected.
While neck wrinkles have always been a well-known concern, there is an increasingly common complaint that is accelerating skin ageing on the neck and décolletage: “tech neck”.
Tech Neck
Tech neck involves the formation of premature wrinkles on this part of the body as a result of constantly looking down at a digital device, be that a phone, tablet or laptop. It comes as no surprise that, in this current digital age, more and more individuals are noticing these unwanted lines and creases. So, how can tech neck be countered and prevented?
How To Counter Tech Neck
Whether you are already experiencing premature neck wrinkles, or simply want to prevent them from forming, there are many ways to alleviate your skin concerns. Ensuring good posture is always recommended, as is raising your digital device to avoid hunching over. The most effective way to avoid tech neck, however, is to support your skin’s elasticity.
