I doubt very much if you can prevent. It's the nature of human skin
to be oily and the nature of white dress shirts to yellow/wear in that
area over time. I use a Spray n' Wash type product on my husbands
until they will not come clean, then he uses them for yard work or
rags. Face it, nothing lasts forever. You could, however, take them
to a good seamstress and have the collars turned over to make them
last longer.
