Sagging skin is a loss of the supportive connective tissue known as collagen and elastin which is the support network for the skin, giving it its plump, firm and youthful appearance. This breakdown results in a lack of connection between the lower and upper level of the skin and results in a sliding and slackening of the skin.

Between these layers we have anchoring fibrils much like scaffolding for the skin. As these deteriorate the skins upper levels collapse in and the formation of wrinkles along with textual changes in the skin. This most commonly occurs as we age but can also occur due to dramatic weight loss and sun exposure which accelerates the rate in which elasticity is lost.

I advise using medical grade, prescriptive skincare which stimulates fibroblast activity; activating the production of collagen and elastin, the key agents to strengthen the anchoring fibrils of the skin.

To maximise results and tighten the skin our most popular Dermapen LA Lift procedure is used to tighten, lift and rejuvenate.
