Best Products & Treatments for Your Neck! | Dr. Shereene Idriss

[@threatlevelmidnight3588]

I'm able to use tret 0.05% on my neck regularly after years of building up to it. When I tried to move to 1% my neck did not like it lol. Hopefully it will pay off and I'll have the smoothest neck in the elderly assisted living facility. 🤣 Thanks for another wonderful video. ❤️

[@glomendez2248]

🤣😂😅

[@kendallstark4302]

That's awesome! I've been using my 0.025% tret on my neck every night for at least six months after building up tolerance, like you. My neck loves it! I typically get acne there, so that's why I use it, but if it stimulates collagen then that's a bonus!

[@paulachristie7807]

I can use Tretinoin 0.05 on my neck and chest no problem. I haven’t tried a stronger percentage. Funny but my neck and chest won’t tolerate Vit C. Ok by me, Tretinoin is better.

[@kimdorcy5150]

you will have the smoothest neck!

[@raysi6931]

I love you take serious care of your skin but still retain a silly humour 😂 here’s to smoothest neck lol

[@hayatee5046]

Hi! I've been using retinol for over 5 years. And have been mixing retinol with my moisturizer for my neck and it has worked beautifully😍

[@m.m4094]

Hi, which Retinol are you using. Name please.and how often.?

[@nw7067]

Does the doctor even read these?

[@katgirlblue]

Me too! I never even thought about it. I use Retin A and never had a problem. My dermatologist just said to use it on my face, neck and under eyes, wait a few minutes and then use moisturizer.

[@sylvestra_]

I usually pull my skincare down my neck, especially sunscreen and peptides. For retinoids: when I switched to a higher potency for the face, I had leftover granactive 5% in squalane from the ordinary. It's cheap and it absolutely does the job without irritating the skin. Can recommend

[@rosemaryyanz1115]

You are a breath of fresh air in terms of delivering practical information. Stay real 😎

[@nayjavu]

I really wish people would also give an affordable version of product as a regular thing. I'm sure there are comparable products if for no other reason than expanding the ability for people to find products when the ones shown can't be.

[@maddynavarro77]

Yes! Thank you Dr. Idris. I never used anything, not even sunscreen until I was in my mid 30's.😩🤦🏼‍♀️ I started bc I saw how damaged my chest was and then I started researching, reading articles and following skincare doctors on here. I shared what I found out with my daughters regarding the importance of sunscreen and skincare too, now they're telling their children. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us. I started following you years back and was, so blessed you promised to start filming every Saturday. 🙌🏽 I am extremely excited to see you have your own skincare line now!! 😁 God bless your journey! 🙏🏽 ❤️Maddy

[@alera520]

I’m 45 and I bought one retinol with Ferulic Acid by Medix plus dreamy youth pestides cremes with Collagen and coconut cream and I been putting them on my face and neck for about a week and I noticed a big change in my face and neck.. it’s kinda reverted the horizontal lines and smooth my face so much.. I’m fascinated by it..

[@hollyp3276]

Hello Dr. Idris, your childhood neck story took me back to my own. In the soft spot that drips in I had a bad hyperpigmentation spot. My mum thought I didn't wash my neck off good enough and tried scrubbing the dirt off. Thank God my Aunt (her suster) who was a nurse came over. She stopped my mum due to the redness and blood she'd caused. Told my mum it was hyperpigmentation. Thank God it eventually went Away. But to this day I can still feel her scrubbing my neck with soap and a wash cloth. Have a great day. I've been enjoying your skin care for a week now.

[@anne-marieschirmer214]

When are you supplying to Canada. You’re products are really making huge difference. You are flawless!

[@lisapierce525]

I use Tretinoin on my face and Differin gel on my neck. My neck tolerates it extremely well. Some nights I get brave and use tret on my neck. No issues so far. I also use it on the tops of my arms and it has removed sun spots rather quickly!

[@christiemeserve6362]

Thank you for all of the effort you have put into this channel. You have made skincare knowledgeable accessible and understandable for everyone. Your videos have helped me to develop a routine that addresses my skin concerns and understand the importance of the different ingredients. I am no longer hoping for the best when I buy something. Is it possible to do a video different skincare procedures you can/should consider getting done in a dermatologist’s office? I read of all of the different types of things people can do, such as lasers, peels, PRP, etc., and it is overwhelming figuring out what is best and what can be prioritized.

[@calebpoling9440]

As always, thank you for the continued education! Would love to see a PillowTalk Derm video on fighting irregular skin textures left behind from acne and sun damage.

[@KinniMoo]

You have been the reason I started taking care of my skin ❤

[@marymckenna5524]

After training my face and neck to tolerate Avene 0.1 retinaldehyde, I moved forward with a 2% granactive retinoid. My face was tolerant but my neck was not. Now I use a 1% granactive retinoid on my neck and my neck tolerates the 1% just fine. The Cetraben Cream sounds INTERESTING! Must give that moisturizer a try. Thanks Doc!

[@feeltheillinois]

your skin is literally perfect in this video, this is exactly what ive been trying and failing to achieve

[@wallflower6942]

No one has perfect skin, even not the beautiful dr Idriss. Don't try to emulate perfection, it doesn't exist and will make you take for granted small and realistic improvements to your skin. Caring for your skin can definitely improve the look of your skin, but even people with seemingly perfect skin still have good skin days and bad skin days and that is totally normal.

[@Lilah1754]

@@wallflower6942 Well said!

[@tanjiafatema]

I have deep horizontal lines on my neck since adolescence. I started my retinol journey with l’oreal. But my neck hated it. Then I tried Paula’s Choice 0.3%, both my face and neck loved it. It took some patience and caution for my neck to get used to it. I have seen improvement. Now I am trying Avene 0.05% retinaldehyde. So far I can use once a week on neck with no irritation. Let’s see! Slow and steady wins the race! Thank you, for another great video.

[@emi_4846]

You pulled through and really did a segment for neck! You’re the best, thank you!

[@stephanieragot7143]

I suffer from the neck band, the rings and saginess due to recent weight loss. Though I'm thrilled with the weight loss I feel that it's giving my age more than my face but I've always been really good at treating everything down to my chest. I have done some retinol but not peptide or in office procedure, which is probably what I'll end up doing 😕

[@anarauf15]

Please do a collagen supplements review and recommendations

[@NatalieG427]

Gold Bond makes a Retinol Cream that may be great for this. I’ll have to try that, as I’m 60 & my neck still looks pretty decent.

[@vidz953]

I love that stuff for body but I haven't tried it on my neck (yet).

[@jaguarniffy]

You truly look amazing! So awake and bright. Cool to see people with great skin get even better skin gives me hope.

[@TheFlip_Side]

I do bring my products down my neck and chest but also if there is a tiny touch extra, I rub it on the back of my hands. I want to try both products but SkinMedica will have to wait. I also love how you are honest about what you use and appreciate what sponsorships you believe in and would use. Thank you for all the amazing nerdy information as I love it!!!

[@kendallstark4302]

To me, it only seems logical to pull everything down to the neck. My mom got me on a routine when I was 15, just a cleanser and moisturizer, but she always emphasized how we need to take care of that area. I'm 41 now, and this summer my friend complimented me on how smooth my neck looked 💖

[@maricryz]

You’re the best . It’s for you that my skin is healthier than ever ❤ I love you A hug from the Mexican Caribbean 🌴💜

[@cindypalumbo7503]

Thank you for the advice!! I stopped using retinol on my neck after I got a bad red rash. I'll have to try one of these products as I've been weary to go back and try retinol on it again. I'd love a video on how to tell if your overdoing it with your skincare. What signs and symptoms to look for and what to do if you skin is on skincare overload.

[@susanthomas5883]

Your skin is always so beautiful but I had to stop and put it in writing today!!! Love your personality!!! Thank you for your whit and charisma every Saturday! ❤

[@EmorettaRobinson]

Thank you Dr. Idriss for emphasizing the importance of starting out with a retinol based product that has a low percentage of retinol. Years ago I started using a retinol product that caused a burning (not tingling or stinging) sensation on my skin. To this day I don't know the percentage of retinol that was used. Needless to say I haven't repurchased it. But because that experience was such a bad one I appreciate the emphasis on starting out with a low dose of retinol. Thank you for continuing to educate us and for recommending products that have a wide variety of price points.

[@manonderaspe9808]

Thank you for those suggestions and learnings i'm from the generation of no spf and i used cream for my face but not no much on my neck so i've started to take care of my neck only 5 years ago. It needs love...

[@galato4234]

Please make a skincare routine for an adult with mild acne on face with products over the counter without fragance, essential oils, and alcohol. Thank you so much.

Address your hormones. Skincare won’t do much

[@allegra1952]

I'm a witch! and before this video arrived and at three weeks of my 70s, I started treating my neck with retinol again! I did it years ago with tretinoin, but it was too irritating! Thanks Doc!😊

[@bweb6]

When i first started using tret, i took it down onto my neck area because that's just what I'd been doing with all my facial skincare. I learnt that lesson the hard way. 😅

[@annaholthaus5323]

Would you suggest retinol and peptides together? Which would you apply first? And is that neck peptide cream good for the face too? It sounds like a good one.

[@markusneda1829]

I never thought about my neck that much but im using all my products like serums and retinol and of course sun screen on my neck and I’m currently using a 1% retinol in my face and neck and it works fine 🤭 So I’m just gonna continue, right? PS: j’adore tes vidéos! ❤️❤️❤️

[@lizrigby-jones3700]

Great content. I use cerave retinol serum for sensitive skin on my neck, i then apply virgin organic coconut oil. I am 64 and my neck is not wrinkly at all. Never to late to start.

[@elpocakoca120]

Salam Doctor, I've started accutane about a week ago and reading through the possible side effects now I feel extremely anxious. I don't think I've ever seen a video from you covering that topic in depth, and I would love to hear your input. Merci d'avance!

[@edwardricketts2435]

Ive built up tolerance to where now I use the Ordinary's 1% retinol on my neck 6 days a week. I also use cera vie moisturizer followed by Revlon night recovery cream and then an ultra light coat of vaseline. In the morning I use same vit c etc.. on my neck as I do on face.

[@emmaleeaman1110]

¿What about Bakuchiol for the neck, since neck skin can be so sensitive to retinols/vitamin A derivatives, and Bakuchiol has been shown in some clinical studies to give similar results as retinol with less irritation?

Greetings dear Dr. Shereen. What is your opinion on Bakuchiol? Thanks for your channel and everything you share with us nerds💖

[@juliep9156]

Hi Dr. Idriss, I have learned a lot from your channel and appreciate the updated information your provide. I have vertical and horizontal neck lines and never thought about botox but I did wonder if filler could be used in the horizontal lines. I use tretinoin on my neck to reduce the "chicken skin" from poikiloderma and with time it has helped but the melasma and some redness remain.

[@maipham4766]

When I was a kid, my mom had melanoma so my parents forced me to wear the highest SPF no matter what. In my teens, my derm prescribed retin A for my horrible acne. Have used it since (for 30+ years). I have used 1% strength forever even around my face, body, around eyes, neck, hands etc. So glad this odd chain of life events lead me here.

[@TaniaMercer]

Thank you Shereene for addressing the neck 🎉 Just placed an order for the neck serum. Made the mistake of taking my 1% tretinoin down to my neck 🔥

Good morning. Have you ever used homes devices with ultrasound, led, rf, and heat? My dermatologist said the marks on my cheeks are most likely from these devices that I introduced recently and repeatedly used over a matter of only 2 months - of course no more than 2x a week, as instructed - with a high quality conductive gel. I used also a microcurrent device with heat around my mouth too. When holding corners of mouth up with it brought about a pale brown patch on bottom of cheek, so that must have been the heat. And I see streaking patches that correspond with moving of the device with th he other features combined. these are high end German-made devices. I've never had melasma or even acne before and I'm already in my 50s. Here I thought it was a great time to start taking care of my skin. This is so new to me. The dermatologist did encourage me to continue but what modality should I skip? Should I only be using the ultrasound? Should it be shorter time? I've seen other youtubers say they don't dare use the red light therapy because it triggers their melasma. Would so much love to know what you would do.

I can tolerate retinaldehyde and encapsulated retinol on my neck. I also use a mild exfoliator a couple times a week- mandelic acid. I love peptides and use them as well. Growth factors my Derm has told me to be cautious with, as I have melanoma in my family. Seems there isn’t enough data to rule out bad cell growth yet.

[@PsychicKathleen]

I have to be so careful with my neck and retinol. I use the Beauty of Joseon eye cream on my chest and sometimes on my neck but it does get irritated easily. I do love the Necessaire's neck cream for my face and neck. I love this stuff so much I will undoubtedly keep purchasing it regularly. I also love their retinol body cream. I am falling in love with all their products honestly. For reference I'm 69 yrs old.
