Skin laxity occurs as our natural collagen and elastin production begins to slow. Collagen and elastin are responsible for making the skin appear smooth, tight and “bouncy”. Loss of collagen and elastin occurs naturally but can be exacerbated by sun exposure, stress, and hormonal changes.
Skin laxity can occur across the entire body but typically men and women report that the face, neck, and decollete are the areas that trouble them most.
Laxity can be addressed by seeking treatments and medical grade skincare designed to boost collagen and elastin production. Most of our patients find that they are happiest with their results when they pair skin tightening treatments with injectable treatments such as Botox and Filler.
