Understanding crepy skin
Crepey skin is often described as skin that looks thinner, finely wrinkled or slightly crinkled. It can appear on the face but is particularly common around more delicate areas such as the eyes and neck, where the skin is naturally thinner.
At Sculpt by Kelly Swann in Beaconsfield, treatments for crepey skin focus on improving the quality of the skin itself. Depending on the area and severity of the concern, we may recommend treatments that improve hydration, support collagen production and encourage firmer skin, and smoother-looking skin.
Rather than simply trying to fill individual lines, the aim is to strengthen and rejuvenate the surrounding skin so it looks healthier, smoother and more resilient.
What are the causes?
One of the main causes of crepey skin is the natural decline in collagen and elastin that occurs with age. These proteins help give our skin its structure and bounce, so as levels fall, the skin can gradually become thinner and less firm.
Sun exposure can speed up this process by damaging collagen and elastin over time. Reduced hydration and lower levels of naturally occurring hyaluronic acid may also make the fine, crinkled texture more noticeable.
Areas such as the under-eyes and neck are particularly prone to crepey skin because the skin is already delicate there. Genetics, lifestyle and environmental exposure can also influence when these changes begin to appear.

Common questions
What are the best treatments for crepey skin?
Depending on the area, treatments such as polynucleotides, skin boosters, microneedling and other collagen-supporting treatments may be recommended.
Can crepey skin be improved?
Yes, in many cases the appearance and quality of crepey skin can be improved by increasing hydration and supporting collagen production.
What can help crepey skin under the eyes?
Polynucleotides are one option we may consider for improving delicate under-eye skin, depending on your individual suitability.
Is crepey skin the same as wrinkles?
Not quite. Wrinkles are usually individual lines or folds, whereas crepey skin describes a wider area of thin, finely textured skin.
