Loose or Sagging Skin

Loose or sagging skin is a condition that can affect anyone and everyone as your get older as there a number of causes of facial sagging. The development of loose or sagging skin on the face is largely due to the natural ageing process, with the breakdown of collagen and elastin, leaving the facial skin less firm or full than it once was.

While is this the case for most people as we age, the likelihood of developing problematic loose or sagging skin can also be impacted by genetics, lifestly factors  and UV exposure.

Whatever the cause of your loose or sagging skin, it can bring anguish and loss of confidence as the patient may feel they are ageing in a less than desired way.

Dermal fillers around the cheeks and jawline or wrinkle-relaxing treatments to the neck can help reduce the appearance of a sagging jaw. A chemical peel or a Hydrafacial has the ability to rejuvenate the skin by resurfacing the top layers to stimulate and reproduce new collagen fibres, encouraging a stronger structure.

Through a series of Dermalux LED facials, a variety of ageing related issues can be improved (including sagging skin) as the deeper layers undergo rejuvenation and repair. One of the benefits of improving the structure of the skin is the lifting and tightening effect it can have on the exterior, reviving a youthful look.
