Understanding ageing of the skin & tissues of the body: Causes, Symptoms & Treatments at our Clinic
A deterioration in your skin elasticity as well as contours of the soft tissues across the body are common concerns affecting patients of all ages & skin types. We offer a range of treatments to target the root cause of these conditions.
Causes:
A combination of loss of elastin and collagen to the skin alongside deflation and descent of soft tissues across the body lead to the appearance of sagging as part of the natural ageing process. We start to lose 1% of our collagen from the age of 30, this is accelerated throughout the peri- & post-menopausal period.
Symptoms:
Common symptoms of ageing across the body includes sagginess, wrinkling and irregular contours to the skin as well as a decline in general skin condition & suppleness. This often leads to the appearance of loose skin across the neck, decolletage, arms, abdomen, knees and buttocks. This can be mild to moderate or at times severe, in some cases exacerbated by pregnancy, menopause or significant weight loss.

We take pride in our passion for providing natural, tasteful, age-appropriate and undetectable results throughout all of our treatment modalities. When it comes to sagging of the skin and general signs of ageing across the body, we focus on improving skin elasticity by the way of skin tightening treatments which does not result in an unnatural appearance.
This is a common concern indeed that can significantly impact confidence levels during and after a period of weight loss. The most effective treatment for weight-related skin laxity is usually Sculptra biostimulator, the earlier this is commenced during the weight loss journey the better the outcome in our experience.
Loss of collagen starts as early as our 20s however accelerates significantly around the menopausal period. Patients often therefore find that their skin tightness rapidly declines. We recommend starting skin tightening treatments as early as possible to account for this, this method is referred to as “collagen banking”.
As part of the natural ageing process, it is common to see skin lacity or irregular contours across the neck, decolletage, upper arms, hands, upper knees, abdomen & buttocks (including cellulite & volume loss). Sometimes referred to as “tech-neck”, “turkey neck” or “hip dips”, “bingo wings”. Our skin tightening treatments can be applied across all of these areas and more.
All of the above are excellent options for stimulating collagen and thereby tightening sagging skin & contouring soft tissues across various body areas. There are certain marked differences in patient suitabilty as well as patient preference of discomfort, downtime and time commitment. We will guide you through these parameters during our consultation so that you can make the most informed decision in your own time.
