What Is Skin Laxity?
Skin laxity or looseness is part of the natural aging process. With age, skin produces lower levels of collagen and elastin, the proteins that give skin its firmness. This causes skin to become thin, sag and droop.
Loose skin is most likely to appear in the following areas:
- Abdomen
- Brows
- Cheeks
- Chest
- Jawline
- Neck
- Under-eye area
- Upper arms
- Thighs
In the case of severe skin laxity, especially in the midsection, it can cause rashes, chafing and irritation.
Who are the Best Candidates for Skin Tightening?
Skin tightening treatments are best for individuals experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity or sagging. Ideal candidates generally have realistic expectations and healthy skin, free from active infections or severe conditions. Those who are committed to following post-treatment care instructions will also see better results. Consulting with a skincare professional can help determine if skin tightening is suitable for your specific needs.
