Understanding Crepey Skin
Crepey skin is that fine, slightly crinkled texture you might notice around your eyes, across your face or on your neck. Skin can feel less bouncy, and the little lines may still be there when your face is relaxed.
It can overlap with skin laxity, which is more about looseness or sagging. If darkness is your main under-eye concern, our dark circles page may be helpful too. We’ll help you understand what’s contributing and which treatments could make a difference.
What causes crepey skin?
As skin gets older, it loses some of the collagen and elasticity that help it feel firm and springy. Sun exposure and hormonal changes, including menopause, can add to this.
Dryness can make the crinkling more noticeable too. Sometimes hydration is a big part of the answer; sometimes the skin needs a different kind of support. If tightness and dullness sound more familiar, take a look at dull or dehydrated skin.
Recommended treatments for crepey skin
Polynucleotides
Focuses on gradually improving skin quality and fine texture, including delicate areas such as the under-eyes, face and neck.
Profhilo
Helps improve hydration and elasticity when skin is feeling drier, less supple or a little more crinkled than before.
RF Microneedling
Encourages fresh collagen to gradually improve crepey texture and mild loss of firmness in suitable areas.

Common questions
Can crepey skin be improved?
Often, yes. We can work on hydration, texture and skin quality, depending on what’s causing the change. The amount of improvement varies, and we’ll explain what looks realistic for your skin.
Will moisturiser get rid of crepey skin?
A good moisturiser can help dry skin look smoother and feel more comfortable. If the skin has also become thinner or less elastic, moisturiser alone may not give you the change you’re hoping for.
Is Profhilo or polynucleotides better for crepey skin?
Both can be worth considering, but the area and your skin make a difference. We’ll explain whether Profhilo’s hydration and elasticity focus or polynucleotides’ skin-quality approach is the better fit for you.
How long does it take to see a difference?
These treatments take a little time. Hydration may improve first, while texture and firmness can keep improving over the following weeks or months. We’ll explain the timeline for your treatment and whether a course would help.
