For years, I have been loyal to StriVectin’s original TL Advanced Tightening Neck Cream. Don’t get me wrong, it’s an excellent neck cream. But it is very, very thick. Over the past couple of years, StriVectin has launched a few new neck cream products: a neck serum, a lightweight cream, and I think they even reformulated their original (but I’m not positive since I haven’t tried it yet).

Theraderm Clinical Skincare
A few months ago, I received a jar of Theraderm Flawless Neck Creme to try out for review. Theraderm Clinical Skincare products were created by plastic surgeon, Dr. James Beckwith, for his patients. He started out with the Therapon skincare brand based on his research in wound-care, and the anti-aging Theraderm product line has grown ever since. My favorites are:
- Theraderm NuPeel Natural Enzyme Peel (an exfoliating mask reviewed here)
- Reversion Acne Control Spot Treatment PM, a miracle blemish cream (reviewed here) that gets rid of blemishes overnight
- Theraderm Cool Skin, a burn cream (reviewed here) that’s also good for sunburn and wasp stings that acts on contact.
Flawless Neck Crème
I waited till I finished up my jar of StriVectin before I started with Theraderm Flawless Neck Creme. Good thing I did, because if I used the Theraderm Flawless Neck Creme as soon as it arrived, I would never have gone back to finish up the original StriVectin TL Advanced Tightening Neck Cream.
For me, everything about Theraderm Flawless Neck Creme is just about perfect. It comes in an airless pump jar that maintains the efficacy of the ingredients by protecting them from air and germs.
The creme is off-white and lightweight. It has a very pleasant, light fragrance that disappears within seconds. The neck creme is absorbed completely almost immediately without a lot of rubbing like the StriVectin original requires.
The pharmaceutical-grade formula contains retinol and peptides as well as moisturizers to tighten and firm loose or sagging skin as well as hydrate. I’ve been using Theraderm Flawless Neck Creme for about a month, and I absolutely love and recommend it.
The airless pump jar contains 50 ml/1.7 oz. As I mentioned, I’ve been using it twice a day for a month, and the jar still feels heavy like there’s quite a bit left (I wish there was a way to see inside). Theraderm Flawless Neck Creme is sold on the Theraderm website, priced at $95.50. The price is 50 cents more than the price of the StriVectin, so it is definitely in the ballpark of what I have been spending. Theraderm has subscription programs for their products, so if you find a product you love, you can save by subscribing. Theraderm products are also sold on Amazon and at the offices of dermatologists and plastic surgeons.
Ingredients: Water, Hydrolyzed manihot esculenta tuber extract, Hydroxyethyl acrylate/sodium acryloyldimethyl taurate copolymer, Sucrose palmitate, Cyclodextrin, Glycerin, Acetyl octapeptide-3, Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, Plankton extract, Sodium hyaluronate, Prunus amygdalus dulcis extract, Palmitoyl oligopeptide, Propanediol dicaprylate, Pentaerythrityl tetraethylhexanoate, Aloe barbadensis leaf juice, Shea butter ethyl esters, Retinol, Kappaphycus alvarezii extract, Caesalpinia spinosa fruit extract, Niacinamide, Caffeine, Tocopheryl acetate, Butylene glycol, Carbomer, Polysorbate 20, Glyceryl linoleate, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin
I love this type of jar because you don’t contaminate the inside with germs or air, and it dispenses the right amount of product. This sounds like a really nice neck cream, and I like that it is so much lighter than the very dense and thick StriVectin. This definitely sounds like a winner in terms of efficacy, texture and ingredients! Thanks for this review, Allison!

It’s always nice when you find a nice alternative. I would prefer something that spreads easy versus thick. this sounds like a nice one! Especially since I’m trying to be more diligent about using skincare not only on my face, but down my neck and as much of my decolette I can cover! haha
I have got to find a way to fit this into my budget. My stars does it sound amazing! (Sorry I’ve been absent. Living in a house with no AC in 100 degree weather while recuperating from surgery? I don’t recommend it.)
Surgery??? Oh no, not you too! How are you doing?? 🙏🏻🤞🏻🍀💕
This sounds like a winner. I’m amazed you can keep up with it twice a day.
