Suddenly there are lots of wrinkles on my neck and under the chin, feel so old ... Can't even cover these under the chin with a scarf if I feel like not seeing them. And some vertical above the lip....The HRT helps with other symptoms so I thought to ask how are you coping with this and if anyone has discovered what helps- not fillers etc.,.

It's probably the lack of oestrogen: which is the body's elastic.  Bat wing arms is common too  .  Scrawny neck ..........

Gentle cleansing at night in an upwards movement: chest to the chin under the neck : may help.  It doesn't bother me as I don't have to look at it

Just a bit of a shock how quickly they all appeared, at 56. I will get used to it, thanks CLKD

Sometimes I think that wearing a burka would be the way to go 

[Stella2]

Yes, that would definitely help

That's when masks were useful, who knew

Speaking of spaniels,my boobs are like spaniels ears 
I exfoliate every morning and cleanse every night,without fail, I don't have many wrinkles but yes,the skin is heading south,oh well,it's natural I suppose,why do we let all these frozen faced Botox lot dictate how we should look

I wouldn't waste my money!!!!  Growing old gracefully.  I will say that both grans, MinL and Mum have had lovely skin to the end because they didn't use 'much'.  Ponds cold cream springs to mind  .  Cuticura ointment.  Plenty of fresh air, fruits and veg..  I remember paternal Gran having bat wings.  Me, having survived various health scares, I haven't time to worry about wrinkles.

Exactly clkd,well put, I think we should be grateful we aren't really ill etc,health comes first every time  Although I hate aging  and I do everything in my power to slow it down,there's nothing wrong in taking care of your skin though, I mean,why wouldn't you

[CLKD]

Because I don't have time  . it gets a wash and gentle towelling ......... and sun protection when necessary

The best cream for wrinkles would be testosterone!

But don’t put it on your neck or face, top of feet is the best place.
