What is?
Sagging occurs due to loss of firmness and elasticity of the skin. Natural contours and oval of the face is distored, smile lines appear and corner of the mouths turns downwards.
Causes
Sagging has two main reasons. First, loss of collagen and elastin which are responsible for the firmness and elasticity of the skin. They are reduced due to genetic aging as well as external factors such as sun exposure, smoking and secondhand smoking, stress, poor diet, lack of exercise. Result is loose and saggy skin. Second, reduction of the bone and soft tissue support under the skin causes the skin sag. Imagine a fine silk shirt on a good quality wooden shirt hanger. Over time this hanger turns into a plastic drycleaners hanger. What do we do when we get our cloths from the dry cleaner? We immediatley change the plastic hangers with our own hangers because we dont want them to get ruined. Our skin is this silk shirt. And the soft tissues and bone under our skin is shirt hanger. As we age, key areas of the face lose their volume, and this contributes to sagging.
