Minimally Invasive Laser Techniques for Loose & Wrinkled Skin in Cleveland, OH

The primary reason for saggy skin is the deterioration or decrease in collagen and elastin levels in the dermis. While saggy skin can affect anyone, it becomes more likely as people age.

As we grow older, the body produces less collagen and elastin, essential for maintaining the skin’s natural elasticity and firmness. These proteins form the supportive connective tissue that keeps the skin looking firm, plump, youthful, and plump.

Facial muscles can weaken over time, leading to a drooping effect and resulting in loose skin. The faster you lose volume, the less time your skin has to recover, sometimes leading to sagging. Additionally, sun exposure can diminish skin elasticity, and significant weight loss may also contribute to lose skin. Certain medical conditions can be another factor influencing skin laxity.

The development of sagging skin on the arms, face, and body is an inevitable sign of aging, but there are some preventive measures like appropriate skincare routines and limited sun exposure that may slow down the process by addressing the underlying causes of loose skin.

When loose and sagging skin does become apparent, laser skin tightening emerges as a highly effective treatment option. This minimally invasive and non-surgical procedure utilizes an infrared laser to heat the collagen beneath the skin’s surface, leading to skin contraction and gradual collagen production.

Laser skin tightening is versatile and can address loose skin on various body areas such as the face, stomach, thighs, and more. The aesthetic benefits of these laser treatments for skin tightening result in remarkable improvements, effectively reducing signs of aging and providing patients with a more youthful appearance. By stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastin, these procedures contribute to a healthy and rejuvenated look.

Typically, patients will undergo two to five sessions, each lasting approximately 45 minutes. Following skin tightening, you can usually resume your normal activities immediately, depending on the treated region.

The regeneration of natural collagen results in immediate improvements, including tightened, smoother skin with enhanced tone and texture.
