Sagging skin is a natural result of aging as the body gradually produces less collagen and elastin, the proteins responsible for maintaining skin firmness and elasticity. Over time, the skin may lose its youthful support, leading to laxity in areas such as the cheeks, jawline, neck, and around the eyes. Many patients seek treatments that restore a firmer, more lifted appearance without surgery.
Why Skin Loses Firmness
As collagen production slows with age, the skin becomes thinner and less resilient. Changes in facial fat distribution and repeated facial movements can further contribute to laxity and softening of facial contours. Environmental factors such as sun exposure can accelerate these changes by damaging the skin’s underlying structure.
