Skin Laxity

Skin Laxity

Skin Laxity is something we will all experience as we age regardless of how much we work out or how healthy we eat. There are environmental factors that can play a part in skin laxity as well such as pollution and sun exposure. Maintaining tight, youthful looking skin depends on how much collagen and elastin we hold on to, which are two components of the deep layer of the skin called the dermis.

Causes of Skin Laxity

As we age we begin to lose these two vital components, elastin and collagen so our skin begins to lose elasticity resulting in loose or sagging skin.

Symptoms & Diagnosis of Skin Laxity

Many people notice signs of aging when skin begins to sag around the face and neck. Laser skin tightening is appropriate for men and women of all skin types and skin tones who wish to achieve dramatic results without painful surgery and lengthy recovery times. The most successful laser skin tightening candidates experience permanent results as the collagen under their skin is regenerated, producing a more youthful complexion.


Treatments for Skin Laxity

Morpheus8 : Radiofrequency microneedling provides minimally invasive skin treatment for a vast array of common skin imperfections. It gently sends RF energy into the layers beneath your skin, stimulating collagen production and your body's natural healing process but without damaging healthy tissues

Microneedling: Microneedling creates a controlled injury to the skin causing your body's cells to stimulate collagen. This process causes a tightening to the skin giving your elasticity significant improvement.

Sculptra: Sculptra is Poly-L-lactic acid. Sculptra is used to stimulate collagen production to increase the volume in your face giving you a more youthful appearance.

Hyperdilute Radiesse: Calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) is a well-established collagen stimulator. In recent years, it has been increasingly used in hyperdiluted form as a biostimulatory agent rather than a volumizing filler to improve skin quality and firmness in both facial and corporal areas.

Treatments for Skin Laxity

Morpheus8 is a non-surgical advanced needling treatment. When we age, our skin begins to lose elasticity, with wrinkles, lines, and sagging appearing. Using radiofrequency, a Morpheus8 treatment stimulates collagen production to tighten and smooth wrinkles on the face and body. Morpheus8 comfortably penetrates the skin at a deeper level than other needling treatments, transforming your complexion and restoring more youthful skin to face, neck, arms, and body .

Hyperdilute Radiesse is gently injected into the skin in small amounts with a very fine needle. Radiesse stimulates the body to produce new collagen.

Microneedling is an advanced, in-office, non-surgical, cosmetic procedure that stimulates natural collagen and elastin production to improve your skin's texture. Micro-needles create small punctures in the skin with tiny, sterile needles, which stimulate new collagen and elastin to form, leading to healing and skin restoration. Microneedling decreases the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, brown spots, sun spots, pores and more. It can be used on the face, neck, chest, and hands and anywhere else that you have unsightly scarring or stretch marks. It is minimally invasive and safe, and works on all skin types. Microneedling will help to keep your skin looking youthful!

It's a quick, mostly comfortable  procedure with minimal downtime, making it an ideal choice for those looking to achieve a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. Sofwave is suitable for all skin types and targets the deeper layers of the skin, offering natural and long-lasting results.

Sculptra is a dermal filler made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a synthetic material that triggers the body's inflammatory response and stimulates increased collagen production. It provides delayed but longer-lasting results up to two years.
