Primary Causes of Skin Laxity
Collagen and Elastin Depletion
As we age, the natural production of collagen and elastin, which provide skin firmness and elasticity, diminishes.
Sun Exposure
Prolonged exposure to UV radiation degrades collagen, speeding up the ageing process and contributing to skin laxity. Protecting your skin with broad-spectrum sunscreen is crucial.
Chronic Dehydration
Not consuming enough water can lead to drier, looser skin
Effects of Gravity
Over time, gravity pulls on weakened skin, enhancing the sagging effect.
Weight Changes
Rapid weight gain or loss can stretch the skin and decrease its elasticity.
Poor Nutrition
A lack of essential nutrients can lead to a weaker skin structure and increased laxity.
Effective Approaches to Manage Skin Laxity
Adequate Hydration
Drink ample water daily to enhance skin hydration and tightness.
Nutrient-Rich Diet
Incorporate proteins and vitamins that are vital for maintaining skin elasticity, such as lean meats, fish, nuts, and leafy greens.
Sun Protection
Regular application of high SPF sunscreen and wearing appropriate clothing can significantly protect against UV-related skin damage.
Targeted Skincare Products
Use skincare items that contain retinoids, peptides, and antioxidants to help strengthen the skin’s framework.
Muscle-Toning Exercises
Engage in physical activities that help build muscle mass beneath the skin, providing better support and reducing sagging.
Stress Reduction Techniques
Implement stress management strategies to minimise the impact of stress on your skin’s health.
