Sagging skin is one of the most common complaints at my London aesthetic clinic. As we age, the collagen and elastin in our skin naturally depletes. Therefore, it’s common to experience a sagging face, noticeable jowls, and a loss of fullness. This can lower your self-esteem and make you feel older beyond your years.
Thankfully, there are many treatments available, such as fillers for lower face sagging, that can fix the problem. So, you don’t have to sit back while your skin changes before your eyes!
I believe in applying cosmetic treatments with an artistic eye and a gentle hand. The results are natural yet noticeable, making you look fresher, younger, and more rested. Read ahead to learn more about what causes the skin to sag and how you can tackle the problem with aesthetic treatments.
What is Sagging Skin?
When we’re young, we have a lot of proteins called collagen and elastin in our skin. These proteins give our skin structure and ‘bounce,’ helping it maintain its shape. However, these building blocks break down over time and take longer to regenerate. When this happens, our skin loses its elasticity and you start to see drooping, loose skin.
While sagging skin is often a problem on the face, it can occur all over the body. For example, you might notice sagginess on your neck, buttocks, upper arms, stomach, and thighs. Other factors such as weight loss, pregnancy, and illness can lead to sagginess. After you lose a great deal of weight, you might experience extra skin that looks ‘baggy’. While surgical options can remove loose skin, fillers and Profhilo can also help your skin look fuller and plumper.
Sagging cheeks treatment – What are the options?
You can make some lifestyle changes to improve your skin, such as improving your diet and getting more exercise. However, there is no way to truly fix a sagging face without some form of aesthetic treatment.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are the most popular treatment for drooping, saggy skin, giving the best results for lower face sagging. These gel-like substances are delivered with quick and nearly painless injections. Fillers give you a renewed fullness and volume without the need for invasive surgery.
Dermal fillers have a wide array of uses, including non-surgical rhinoplasty and facial feminisation or masculinisation. However, they are most commonly used to repair saggy facial skin.
Profhilo
Profhilo is another popular way to deal with sagginess. This injectable treatment is made from hyaluronic acid, which is proven to stimulate your skin’s own collagen and elastin. It helps with skin laxity by boosting the production of these vital proteins. As a result, your youthful firmness returns, and your skin feels firmer with more ‘bounce’.
Unlike dermal fillers, Profhilo is unique because it stimulates your own natural proteins and helps you look your best from the inside out.
