If your skin is starting to resemble crepe paper—especially around the eyes, neck, or upper arms—you’re likely dealing with one of the most frustrating signs of aging: skin laxity. It’s the slow breakdown of collagen and elastin fibers that leaves skin thin, loose, and lacking the snap it once had. But the question is: What actually works for crepey skin?
From topical treatments to laser resurfacing, there’s no shortage of options. But if you’re looking for real, visible improvement without jumping straight to surgical procedures, NeoGen Plasma might be your skin’s new best friend.
What Causes Crepey Skin?
Skin laxity—and crepey skin—is a result of multiple factors:
- Sun exposure and UV damage that break down collagen
- Loss of collagen and elastin production over time
- Weight loss or rapid weight fluctuations
- A decline in skin hydration and barrier function
- Natural aging and environmental stressors
The result? Skin that appears thin, wrinkled, and loose—often most visible on delicate skin like the neck, chest, eyes, or arms.
Why Topicals and Traditional Treatments Aren’t Always Enough
Yes, there are alpha-hydroxy acids, glycolic acid, retinoids, and even body lotions that offer mild exfoliation or hydration. Ingredients like hyaluronic acid, lactic acid, and vitamin C do help improve the skin’s surface and boost glow. A great skincare routine is the foundation of beautiful skin!
But here’s the thing: these only address the outermost layer of skin. And while they can help with dry skin and improve skin tone, they don’t go deep enough to fix the real issue—the breakdown of collagen and loss of elasticity in the deeper layers.
That’s where NeoGen Plasma stands out.
NeoGen Plasma: The Gold Standard for Non-Surgical Skin Tightening
NeoGen Plasma is a non-invasive procedure that uses medical-grade nitrogen gas to generate plasma energy—a powerful, controlled source of heat that penetrates the entire skin structure.
Unlike laser treatments that can burn or damage the surface layer, NeoGen’s thermal energy works by:
- Rebuilding the natural skin architecture
- Stimulating fresh collagen production and elastin fibers
- Smoothing out wrinkled skin and tightening loose skin
- Improving skin texture, skin tone, and overall skin health
It’s completely customizable—meaning we can tailor the energy levels to match your skin type, concerns, and lifestyle. Choose low-energy treatments with minimal downtime, or go all in with a high-energy session for more dramatic results.
What Areas Can NeoGen Treat?
NeoGen isn’t just for the face. An increased production of collagen can benefit virtually everywhere on the body!
We’ve used this advanced skin-tightening procedure on:
- Necks and jawlines
- Crepey skin on arms or around the knees
- Undereyes and eyelids (yes, it’s that gentle!)
- Sun-damaged skin on the chest or décolleté
And because it’s safe for all skin tones—from lighter skin to Black skin—it’s one of the most versatile professional treatments available today.
How Many Sessions Do You Need to Treat Crepey Skin?
Most patients see visible improvement after just one treatment, especially with medium-to-high energy protocols. For more gradual change or sensitive areas, we recommend a series of 2–3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart.
Results continue to build for months as your skin undergoes natural collagen stimulation and tissue regeneration. Expect firmer, smoother, more youthful skin—without the risk or recovery of surgery.
