Laxity / Sagging Skin

About the Concern

Laxity refers to the loss of firmness and elasticity in the skin, resulting in sagging or drooping.

Starting in our late 20s, the skin begins to gradually lose collagen and elastin, which are essential for maintaining skin structure and tightness.

Other Factors Contributing to Laxity:

  • genetics

  • sun damage

  • weight loss

  • lifestyle factors:

    • smoking

    • poor diet

    • lack of hydration

Frequently Asked Questions

  • No, it is never too late to address laxity and sagging. While earlier treatment can prevent further skin laxity, there are effective treatments available at any age to improve the appearance of sagging skin. A personalized treatment plan can help you achieve significant results regardless of your starting point.

  • Collagen supplements can support overall skin health, but they may not be enough on their own to treat or prevent significant laxity. These supplements can help improve skin hydration and structure from within, but professional treatments that target deeper layers of the skin and are focused on the areas of concern are typically more effective for firming and tightening.

  • A face and/or neck lift is a surgical option that provides dramatic results by physically tightening the skin and underlying muscles. However, many non-surgical treatments can deliver significant improvements in laxity without the downtime or risks associated with surgery.

    Additionally, surgery does not stop the aging process, so once fully healed and cleared by their surgeon, patients can resume collagen-inducing treatments to maintain and optimize their surgical results.
