Sagging skin

Skin sagging occurs as a result of aging skin and loss of supportive fat and skin structures.

 

Treatments

Skin sagging can produce unwanted furrows and shadows in skin. The expert use of neuromodulation (Botox / Dysport) to counteract overactive muscles producing some shadowing will help soften shadows. The replacement of the lost skin support structures can be achieved with expert placement of a skin filler. Most critically, treatments to generate new active collagen to replace the lost and damaged skin collagen will restore the skin’s natural elasticity and support, to reverse the sagging effects of skin aging. ‘Skintyte’ broadband light treatment and the exciting new Ultherapy ultrasound skin tightening device are designed to promote new collagen formation deep in the skin support structures and are important treatment options for sagging skin.
