Skin Sagging
If you’ve ever stood in front of the mirror and tried to pull your facial skin back with your fingers to see how it once looked, then you’ve likely experienced skin sagging.
As we age, the skin begins to lose collagen and elastin – our skin’s natural support structure. The effects of gravity in conjunction with weakening facial muscles, decrease in fat volume, ligament laxity and bone resorption causes our skin to sag, which makes us appear tired and sad, even when we are not.
Environmental factors, such as smoking, stress, poor nutritional health and UV radiation, further contribute to the breakdown of collagen and elastin leading to premature sagging and wrinkle formation. Large amounts of weight loss over a short period of time can also cause the skin to sag and appear loose.
Despite all these factors working against us, there are effective options available to treat and combat skin sagging.
At Aesthetic Options, there are numerous non-surgical options to treat a sagging face which include the:
- Liquid Facelift (a combination of Dermal Fillers with Wrinkle Relaxing Injections)
- Laser Facelift with skin tightening devices such as HIFU and Radiofrequency.
- 3D Facelift using Thread Lifting.
- Carboxy Therapy

I have been getting laser hair removal treatments from Christelle and have been seeing amazing results! She is very professional and great at what she does. Quick and easy procedure that’s practically pain-free.
I have also gotten Botox before from Dr Leon Ehlers for my gummy smile which showed amazing results and I was super happy with it!
Highly recommended! The friendly staff and beautiful view is an added bonus 🙂 "
