Skin Laxity
Skin seems to become looser over time and this happens for a number of reasons. Center for Dermatology & Plastic Surgery has options to tighten skin on the face and body.
One cause of skin laxity is due to the effect of environmental stress on elastic fibers and collagen fibers in the skin. Environmental stress can be sun, pollution, diet and even just plain stress. In addition, we lose facial volume because our facial fat pads diminish as we age.
As a result the breakdown of these fibers causes laxity, increasing over years. Gravity combined with volume loss pulls the looser skin downwards. The face will show some “jowling” as early as the 30′s. Puffiness and bags under the eyes can also be due in part to skin laxity.
Our Approach and Expertise
As we age, our skin naturally loses collagen, elastin, and volume—leading to skin laxity, or a gradual loosening and sagging of the skin. Whether you’re noticing mild drooping along the jawline or more significant skin laxity on the face, neck, arms, or body, The Center for Dermatology and Plastic Surgery offers effective, personalized solutions to help restore a firmer, more youthful appearance.
Our expert team of board-certified dermatologists and plastic surgeons begins with a detailed consultation to evaluate the severity of skin laxity and identify the best treatment approach based on your goals, skin type, and lifestyle. We believe in natural-looking results and long-term skin health, which is why we combine leading-edge technology with proven techniques tailored to your unique needs.
Depending on your treatment plan, options may include non-invasive procedures like radiofrequency microneedling, ultrasound skin tightening (such as Ultherapy®), and laser therapies, or minimally invasive treatments like thread lifts or dermal fillers to restore structure and definition. For those seeking more dramatic or lasting results, surgical lifting procedures are also available, performed by our highly skilled plastic surgeons.
No matter your age or stage, our goal is to help you look refreshed, lifted, and confident—without looking overdone. At The Center for Dermatology and Plastic Surgery, you’re in expert hands every step of the way. Count on The Center for Dermatology and Plastic Surgery for expert, compassionate care tailored to your unique skin.
