-Appearance of facial dimples, which create shadows on the face

​
Aging:
As we age, the production of collagen and elastin, which are responsible for the structure and elasticity of the skin, decreases. This leads to sagging and loosening of the skin.
​
Weight Loss:
Rapid weight loss or significant fluctuations in weight can result in skin sagging and loosening because the skin may not have enough time to adapt to the new body shape.
​
Sun Exposure:
Long-term exposure to the sun damages collagen and elastin fibers, accelerates the aging process, and promotes skin sagging.
​
Smoking:
Smoking impairs skin circulation and depletes it of oxygen and essential nutrients, which can lead to premature sagging.
​
Genetics:
Genetics play a significant role in skin sagging. Some individuals are prone to sagging skin earlier than others.
Treatment
​
When treating sagging skin, it's important to remember that in addition to home care products, the skin needs to be supplemented with structure and support. This can be achieved through procedures such as filler treatments, biostimulator treatments, or device treatments like Morpheus8 or Fractora.
​
Home Care Products:
Certain creams and serums containing ingredients such as retinol, hyaluronic acid, and peptides can improve skin structure and moisture.
​
Microneedling:
This minimally invasive procedure involves small needles that create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production.
​
Radiofrequency and Microneedling Treatments:
RF devices use heat to tighten the skin and stimulate collagen production, which helps reduce sagging skin.
