Sagging Skin

Sagging skin can be caused by deterioration and reduction of collagen and elastin in the skin due to aging, as well as weight loss.

What is it?

When skin loses its elasticity due to a decrease in collagen and elastin (two key proteins), the result can be sagging skin. Collagen, composed of tightly woven fibers, aids our skin in maintaining its structure and firmness. Elastin gives our skin its elasticity, ensuring it remains soft and flexible. As the years pass, our bodies start to reduce the production of these two proteins, resulting in sagging skin that predominantly affects the eyelids, face, jawline, neck, upper arms and stomach.

Additional factors such as carrying excess weight and pregnancy can also lead to skin sagging. Although natural skin does sag over time, our skilled practitioners at Clarkston Dermatology can assist you in combating this process with numerous treatment options at our offices in Clarkston and Oxford, Michigan.
