While I do not recomment chemical peels on the neck, there are som pratitionersa who use very mild chemical peels o nt he neck. I will perform mild laser procedures on the neck to tighten the skin and remove sun damage.

Yes, but it must be of a superficial strength of peel. Medium peels can scar those areas.
