SKIN LAXITY
Skin laxity is a progressive loss of firmness and elasticity in the skin. Over time, collagen and elastin fibres which provide support to the tissues become disorganised and less numerous. Your skin then loses density, tone, and its ability to retract.
This phenomenon can affect different areas of the body and can be accompanied by thinner, less toned skin and a more sagging appearance.
Our approach aims to stimulate natural regeneration mechanisms in order to sustainably improve tissue quality, firmness and resistance.
Understanding the causes
Skin laxity results from several mechanisms that can occur in combination:
Skin ageing
Over time, the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid naturally decreases.
Loss of collagen and elastin
The supporting fibres gradually break down, making the skin less firm and less elastic.
Weight variation
Repeated weight fluctuations can stretch tissues and thus decrease their ability to tighten.
Hormonal factors
Hormonal variations, particularly during the menopause, influence skin density and quality.
UV exposure & lifestyle
Sun exposure, tobacco, stress and certain lifestyle habits accelerate tissue ageing.
Our tailored solutions
We combine targeted technologies to stimulate the skin's natural mechanisms, improve its firmness and sustainably slow down skin sagging.
Each protocol is fully adapted to the individual.
RADIO FREQUENCY
Radiofrequency uses controlled heat to stimulate fibroblasts, which are responsible for the production of collagen and elastin.
Over the course of the sessions, your skin gradually regains more firmness, tone and support, helping to slow down and correct skin laxity.
Tips for preserving skin firmness
- Protect your skin from the sun: UV rays accelerate the degradation of collagen and elastin, which are responsible for tissue firmness.
- Maintain a stable weight: limiting significant weight fluctuations helps preserve skin elasticity.
- Engage in regular physical activity: this stimulates circulation, maintains muscle tone, and helps to support tissues.
- Hydrate and nourish your skin: well-hydrated skin more easily retains its quality and stays more supple.
- Stimulate skin regeneration: targeted treatments that promote collagen production can slow the appearance of sagging and improve skin quality over the longer term.
