Loss of Skin Firmness
Collagen and elastin are responsible for maintaining the firmness and elasticity of the skin. As we age, our production of collagen and elastin in the skin decreases, resulting in sagging, and a loss of firmness in the skin’s appearance.
Sagging skin can also occur from extreme weight loss, causing an excess of skin on the body.
We offer a range of skin tightening treatments to help improve loose or sagging skin with ultimate precision.
Loss of skin firmness symptoms?
Sagging skin is part of the natural process of ageing. The appearance of ageing can affect the face and neck in multiple ways:
- Loose skin around the neck and lower face. As skin loses its elasticity in the area, sagging most commonly occurs within this area.
- Fat cells under the chin can cause sagging of the skin.
- Banding. The muscles in the neck can weaken, causing the vertical tissue cords to stretch resulting in the appearance of bands on the neck.
- Damaged skin cells from sun exposure
- The natural effects of gravity over time
- Weight loss
- The reduction of collagen and elastin production.
Although preventing ageing isn’t possible, we can offer a variety of treatments to help reduce the appearance of sagging and loose skin.
We will recommend some at-home methods for you to use to help enhance your treatment results:
- Wear sun cream daily to protect your skin from harmful UVA rays.
- Stay hydrated
- Avoid smoking
- Eat a well-balanced diet rich in fruit and vegetables
- Get plenty of vitamin C and E
- Use a skincare routine with products enriched with antioxidants, peptides and vitamin A.
