Facial sculpting – firming and shaping Youthful skin is usually tight, elastic and plump. However, as the years pass, the effects of the sun, gravity, age, and the ravages of the environment begin to take their toll. The process of sagging skin may start as early as mid-twenties.
The most common cause of sagging skin is the loss of collagen and elastic, your skin’s supportive connective tissue. Facial muscles can weaken with age, and constant exposure to the dreaded pull of gravity will start to take its toll.
Exposure to the sun is another reason for skin to lose its elasticity. Ultraviolet rays break down collagen and elastin, which results in the skin sagging and forming wrinkles.
Finally, weight loss, especially over a short period of time. When the weight is dropped, the muscles and skin do not have time to adjust and therefore, sagging ensues.
There are lifestyle factors that may delay the sagging of skin – avoiding smoking and getting proper exercise – but eventually, time catches up with us.
