TREATMENTS FOR SKIN LAXITY
What is Skin Laxity? How Do We Treat It?
Skin laxity, or loose skin, is a natural part of aging that affects everyone, no matter how well we eat or how much we exercise. Over time, our skin gradually loses collagen and elastin—two essential proteins that keep it firm and youthful. Environmental factors like sun exposure and pollution can accelerate this process, leading to sagging and loss of elasticity.
At Truth Medical Aesthetics, we offer several treatments that effectively address skin laxity by stimulating collagen, elastin, and skin tightening. These include non-invasive, minimally invasive, and injectable options:
What Causes Skin Laxity?
-
Sun Exposure
UV rays break down collagen, leading to premature aging.
-
Genetics
Some individuals are naturally predisposed to looser skin.
-
Weight Fluctuations
Rapid weight loss can result in excess, sagging skin.
-
Lifestyle & Enviornmental Factors
Smoking, pollution, and poor skincare habits can speed up collagen loss.
Signs & Symptoms of Skin Laxity
-
Loose or sagging skin, particularly around the jawline, cheeks, hands, arms, knees and neck
-
Wrinkles and fine lines becoming more prominent
