Sagging skin facial treatment

Sagging facial skin is a common problem for many people, especially as they get older. sagging skin means there is less collagen and elastin present in the skin. As a result, it loses its firmness and elasticity and becomes weaker. This applies to the face as well as to the body. The sagging of the skin is a natural but unfortunately unavoidable process. The connective tissue also becomes thinner as we age. This causes sagging in the skin. Think of droopy cheeks or a less tight jawline.

Our tips to tackle your sagging skin yourself

  • Healthy lifestyle
    Eat a healthy and varied diet, for example choose food that is rich in antioxidants, with this you neutralize from the inside the free radicals that cause aging of the body and skin. Exercise regularly and also ensure that you get enough sleep and little stress, so that the skin remains healthy and tight for as long as possible.
  • Vitamin C and collagen the ultimate duo against sagging
    Not just for the skin but for a healthier life. In particular vitamin C is important, because it is a building block of collagen. Without vitamin C, the skin cannot produce collagen. Vitamin C is the last to arrive in the skin layers, which is why we always recommend taking vitamin C during treatments for the best results. It is also possible to take extra collagen. For example  Laviesage Base, or if you want to do it right and get the best for your skin, we recommend Laviesage Boost and Lift. Boost & Lift . This supplement ensures that extra collagen is formed in our body and in the skin layers. Which will strengthen our skin but also our muscles and bones.
  • Omega 3 Omega 6 fatty acids balance
    The science is very clear on this, a wrong balance causes chronic inflammation in the body and is a very important factor in premature skin aging including sagging skin. We recommend the Pure Action Oil from Norway, this is one of the best and purest fish oils available today.
  • Vitamin A, E and zinc are essential for skin health. These vitamins support collagen production, protect against damage and stimulate cell renewal. A deficiency can lead to a dull, less elastic skin.
  • Hydration: Daily use of moisturisers and serums helps to strengthen the skin barrier and retain moisture. Well-hydrated skin remains more elastic and resilient. Forlle'd from Japan is by far the best you can get to hydrate your skin because they have made the molecules so small that they can actually go to work in the skin.
  • Protection against UV radiation: UV radiation is one of the main causes of sagging skin, because it breaks down collagen and elastin in the skin. Without daily protection with SPF, this damage and skin aging can occur more quickly.
  • Exfoliation and cell renewal: Regular, gentle exfoliation stimulates cell turnover and improves skin texture and firmness. Without this, the natural process of skin renewal slows down, leaving skin dull and sagging.

Causes of sagging facial skin

  • Age
    As you get older, the skin also becomes thinner, cell division is slowed down/reduced and the skin loses its firmness in the subcutaneous connective tissue. This is due to the breakdown of collagen fibers (this is an important part of the connective tissue, you can compare it with glue that holds the cells together). How quickly this happens often depends on our genetic factors (heredity).
  • Lifestyle
    Think of exposure of the skin to the sun, smoking or alcohol. Bad food, especially sugar, because sugar sticks to the collagen so that it can not function properly and can break down. But a wrong Omega 3 Omega 6 balance is also a major cause of slackening.
  • Lose weight fast and a lot
    Fat is present in our skin. If there is a lot of fat, it will stretch with the skin. As a result, if you lose a lot of weight, the skin can droop and look saggy.
  • Stress and illness
    This creates a lot of free radicals in the skin. These are bad substances that affect the functioning of your skin cells. As a result, they cannot function properly and significantly accelerate the aging process
  • Medication
    Can cause stress in the body and bring the body out of balance, causing relaxation in the long term.
  • Genetically determined
    Some people naturally have less collagen in their skin than normal. These people will therefore notice early on that their skin is becoming thinner and weaker. This is therefore genetically determined in some people.
  • UV radiation
    inhibits the production of new collagen and also ensures a faster breakdown of collagen. People who are or have been in the sun a lot will therefore get sagging skin more quickly.
  • Reduction of the skull
    Unfortunately, as we age, your bones and skull also shrink. This ensures that the skin is looser around the face.
  • Muscle relaxation
    In combination with the shrinking of the skull, this makes your skin sag. This often manifests itself in sagging cheeks and a slackened jawline.

What should you not do with sagging skin?

  • Do not go too much in the sun and under the sunbed. Sun damage speeds up the aging process. This is because UV radiation causes collagen to break down faster and inhibits the production of new collagen.
  • Eating too much sugar. As mentioned, sugars stick to your collagen, preventing it from functioning properly and even breaking down collagen.
  • Exfoliating too much makes your skin thinner and therefore more saggy. Use an exfoliant instead of a scrub. In this way, the dead skin cells are removed, but the skin does not become thinner.
  • Using products with alcohol. Alcohol dries out, resulting in drier and sagging skin.

Where can sagging skin occur on the face?

Sagging skin on the face can occur in different places, especially in places where the skin is thinner and loses its elasticity more quickly. The most common areas where sagging skin occurs are:

  1. Sagging jawline – Loss of collagen and elastin can cause the skin along the jawline to begin to sag, causing the tight contour to fade.

  2. Wangen – As we age, the skin in the cheeks loses volume and firmness, which can give the face a sunken or “saggy” appearance.

  3. Under the eyes – The skin under the eyes is thin and sensitive, and sagging skin can cause bags and wrinkles.

  4. Sagging neck – Although technically not the face, the neck is often seen as an extension of the face. Sagging skin in the neck can be a sign of aging and often this skin also hangs due to loss of elasticity.

  5. Above and below the lips – Around the corners of the mouth, the skin can sag and fine lines can appear. This can sometimes give the mouth a somewhat downturned, sad look.

  6. Forehead and around the eyebrows – Sagging skin around the eyebrows and forehead can cause the eyebrows to droop slightly, giving the entire face a tired appearance.

Factors such as age, genetics, sun damage, and lifestyle all play a role in the development of sagging skin.
