Skin laxity refers to a gradual loss of firmness that can affect both the face and body. As skin support changes, areas may appear looser or less defined. With a strategic approach, skin can be supported in a way that looks natural and balanced.
Skin laxity describes a decrease in skin firmness and elasticity, leading to a looser or less taut appearance. It can affect areas such as the face, neck, jawline, and body, often altering overall contour and definition.
The degree of laxity varies based on skin quality, underlying support, and individual anatomy.
Over time, the skin produces less collagen and elastin—proteins responsible for structure and elasticity. Gravity, sun exposure, weight fluctuations, and aging all contribute to how quickly skin laxity develops.
Because these changes occur gradually beneath the surface, effective care often focuses on supporting skin structure rather than simply tightening the surface.
