Precision Laser Treatment for Neck Lines, Skin Laxity and Sun Damage
The neck is often one of the first areas to show signs of ageing, with fine lines, creasing, pigmentation and skin laxity becoming more noticeable over time. Whether due to sun exposure, natural collagen loss, or lifestyle factors such as prolonged screen use (so-called “tech neck”), these changes can affect the overall harmony between the face and neck.
At our Perth clinic, Dr Nathan Stewart, Specialist Plastic Surgeon, offers CO₂ fractional laser treatment for the neck, using advanced laser technology to promote skin renewal and firmness without the need for surgery.
