Loose skin
Skin that has lost its snap and started to sag on the face, neck, or body, whether from aging or weight loss. Energy-based tightening and surgical lifting address different degrees of laxity.
What It Is
Loose or sagging skin occurs when the skin loses elasticity and structural support, causing it to droop or feel less firm. This can happen across the face, neck, décolletage, abdomen, arms, and other areas. Common causes include aging, significant weight loss, pregnancy, sun damage over time, and natural variations in skin genetics. The skin's ability to bounce back depends on collagen and elastin fibers, which gradually break down and become less organized as we age or after major changes in body composition.
