Improve Skin Firmness, Definition and Contours
Skin laxity is a common sign of ageing that occurs as the skin gradually loses collagen, elastin and structural support. Changes in facial volume, sun exposure, weight fluctuations and the natural ageing process can also contribute to skin becoming less firm and defined.
At Saranghae Aesthetics, we offer a range of non-surgical treatments that can be tailored to improve skin firmness, stimulate collagen and refine facial contours. The most suitable approach depends on the degree of laxity, skin quality and your individual aesthetic goals.
What Causes Skin Laxity?
Collagen and elastin help keep the skin firm, elastic and supported. As we age, the body's production of these proteins naturally declines.
Skin laxity may appear as:
- Looser or less firm skin
- Sagging around the cheeks and jawline
- Early jowling
- Less defined facial contours
- Loose skin around the neck
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Crepey or thinner-looking skin
Lifestyle factors such as prolonged sun exposure, smoking and significant weight changes may also contribute to changes in skin quality.
Treatment Options for Skin Laxity
There are several ways to approach skin laxity, depending on whether the primary concern is loose skin, collagen loss, reduced skin quality or facial volume changes.
Morpheus8: Deep Skin Remodeling and Tightening
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to deliver controlled heat into the deeper layers of the skin. It can be customised according to treatment depth and may help improve skin firmness, texture and selected areas of laxity.
It may be considered for concerns around the cheeks, jawline, jowls and neck, as well as selected body areas.
InMode Forma: Non-Invasive Skin Tightening
InMode Forma uses controlled radiofrequency energy to gently heat the skin and support collagen remodelling. It is a non-invasive option for patients looking to improve skin firmness and achieve a more refined appearance without significant downtime.
Collagen Biostimulators
Collagen Biostimulators are injectable treatments designed to support the body's natural collagen production. Depending on the product and treatment area, they may help improve skin firmness, elasticity and overall skin quality progressively.
Fractional CO2 Laser
Fractional CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing uses controlled ablative laser energy to resurface the skin while stimulating a strong collagen response. It may be considered for patients with more significant textural ageing, wrinkles, scarring and selected concerns related to skin laxity.
Dermal Fillers
When facial volume loss contributes to a less defined or more aged appearance, [Dermal Fillers] may be used to restore selected areas of structural support and improve facial proportions.
AdvaTx Laser
AdvaTx Laser may be considered when reduced skin quality, fine lines, uneven texture or other signs of skin ageing accompany mild loss of firmness.
Which Treatment Is Right for You?
Skin laxity can have several contributing factors, so there is no single treatment that is appropriate for everyone.
During your consultation, our doctor will assess your skin quality, facial structure, degree of laxity and treatment goals. Depending on your needs, one treatment may be recommended on its own or several treatments may be combined as part of a personalised treatment plan.
