What causes crepey skin?
- Loss of collagen and elastin with age.
- Years of sun exposure, especially on the neck, chest and hands.
- Dehydrated skin.
- Significant weight loss.
- Smoking.
London Polynucleotides connects you with practitioners at UNTIL Marylebone and UNTIL Soho who treat crepey skin under the eyes, on the neck, chest and hands, where thin, dry skin rather than lost volume is the problem.
The neck thins and creases with age and sun and often looks older than the face above it. Polynucleotides improve crepey texture and density on the neck. Deep horizontal neck lines set by movement and posture soften only a little, and loose skin under the jaw needs a different approach. The neck usually needs a course of three, like the face.
The backs of the hands lose fat and thin with age and sun, so veins, tendons and crepey skin show more. One Soho practice publishes polynucleotides for the hands at £220 a session or £600 for three. Hands bruise more visibly than the face, so plan sessions away from occasions you will be photographed at.
Daily sunscreen on the face, neck, chest and hands slows further damage. Moisturisers make crepey skin look smoother for the day; retinoid creams can improve texture over months. For loose rather than crepey skin, practitioners may discuss energy-based skin tightening, which is a different treatment.
Practices at both clubs publish polynucleotides for crepey skin on the face, neck, chest and hands, from £220 to £350 a session and from £600 for a course of three, checked on 29 September 2026. Polynucleotide prices in London breaks the figures down by area, and the enquiry form arranges an assessment.

FAQ
It can be improved rather than fully reversed. Skin-quality treatments such as polynucleotides thicken and hydrate crepey skin over a course, and sunscreen slows further change. London Polynucleotides connects you with practitioners who will set realistic expectations for your skin at the assessment.
Crepey skin is thin and finely wrinkled on the surface; sagging skin is loose tissue that has dropped under its own weight. Polynucleotides help the first rather than the second. London Polynucleotides suggests asking the practitioner which you have, or how much of each, because the treatments are different.
Usually a course of three sessions two to three weeks apart, on the face, neck, chest or hands, with maintenance every six to nine months. London Polynucleotides notes that very thin or sun-damaged skin sometimes needs a fourth session, which the practitioner will say at the assessment.
