Treat 'tech neck' with this 'magic' product developed by dermatologists and plastic surgeons

(BPT) - Did you know that spending extended time hunched over your phone can take a serious toll on your neck? Commonly referred to as 'tech neck' or 'text neck,' this habit can lead to the appearance of deep lines, wrinkles and even sagging skin on your neck. The delicate skin on your neck is particularly prone to showing signs of aging prematurely - and constant hunching only accelerates the process.

The skin on your neck is about four times thinner than the skin on your face, so it quickly shows signs of excess sun exposure, premature aging and 'tech neck. It's also highly visible skin, so unless you want to wear turtlenecks the rest of your life, you'll want to take better care of this fragile skin.

While you may not give up your cell phone, you can take steps to protect and improve the skin on your neck so you can look and feel your best.

1. Watch your posture

How often do you find yourself looking at your phone? Have you ever tracked it? It might be time for a reality check: Most smartphones and tablets allow you to monitor your daily screen time under "settings." You'll be surprised by how quickly those minutes accumulate into hours.

Consider setting a timer each time you check your text messages or social media to limit the time spent in this posture - or try checking your phone only at certain times. Additionally, hold your phone higher, closer to eye level, to avoid straining your neck and hunching your shoulders. You'll be amazed at the difference it makes.

2. Harness the power of Retinol

Looking for a non-invasive way to lift and firm your neck? Your best bet is Retinol, and RoC Skincare has made it even easier with their new Derm Correxion Firming Serum Stick. This innovative product combines their well-known Retinol in a convenient new stick format, firming skin and combatting lines and wrinkles with a simple swipe.

Developed with dermatologists and plastic surgeons, this Firming Serum Stick massages Retinol, antioxidants and firming THPE directly into the skin on your neck, face, chest, and back of hands for both immediate and lasting results. Clinically proven to visibly firm and correct the lines caused by tech neck, it leaves skin looking smoother and feeling refreshed.

"We all want the benefits of Retinol but with instant results too," says Dr. Prem Tripathi, Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon. "The convenience of the stick format paired with the effectiveness of RoC's Retinol and THPE makes it ideal for anyone looking to instantly tighten skin and maintain results long term"

3. Go easy on sun exposure

While it's well known that prolonged sun exposure can be harsh on your skin, it's easy to forget to apply sunscreen to all exposed areas. Next time you're outdoors, remember to apply SPF 30+ not only on your face but also on your neck, chest, and hands - areas of delicate skin that tend to show signs of aging.

Incorporating these simple steps into your routine can help combat the effects of tech neck and enhance the overall appearance of your skin, boosting your confidence to look and feel your best, every day.
