Skin Laxity & Sagging
-
Mild to moderate facial sagging
-
Softening jawline, early jowls
-
Drooping brows, midface descent
-
Neck and lower-face laxity
-
“Tech neck” horizontal lines
How it happens (physiology)
Loss of collagen and elastin, plus decreased dermal thickness and changes in the fibrous septage and ligaments, reduces the skin’s ability to recoil. Gravity and repetitive movement then contribute to laxity and jowling.
Variations
-
Some mainly develop lower-face and neck laxity.
-
Others have earlier eyelid and brow descent.
-
Genetics, sun exposure, weight changes and smoking strongly influence onset and severity.
Severity & treatment approach
-
Early laxity: non-invasive collagen stimulators (RF, RF microneedling, non-ablative lasers), skincare and sun protection.
-
Moderate: combo of biostimulators, RF/RF microneedling, focused devices (like RF/ultrasound platforms) and sometimes neuromodulators/fillers for support.
-
Advanced laxity: non-surgical treatments can still improve texture and mild lift, but expectations need to be managed; surgical lifting may give the most dramatic change.
