Have you ever seen your same-age peers having tight and smooth facial skin but found yourself struggling with sagginess and wrinkles? In this blog, we will give you an inside look at the reasons for saggy skin and the methods to restore its firmness.

3 causes of saggy skin

Collagen loss

Collagen in the dermis layer is responsible for supporting the skin and is the key to maintaining skin elasticity and tightness. But as ladies reach the age of 25, the speed of collagen loss will accelerate and even exceed the speed of replenishment at a certain age. As a result, the collagen density will decrease, leading to ageing signs such as saggy and sunken skin and wrinkles.

Inadequate sun protection

If you walk on the street, sunbathe or engage in outdoor activities without any sun protection, your skin will age due to the damage from UV radiation. UV light has different wavelength bands including UVA and UVB, which can damage the collagen and elastic fibres in the skin, causing the skin to lose elasticity and sag.

Improper skincare

Oil, dirt, airborne dust and makeup residue can clog facial pores and lead to comedones and allergies, resulting in poor skin quality. If you apply skincare products such as serum and lotion without deep cleansing your face, they will not deliver your desired skincare effects but will burden your skin instead. Your skin may lose plenty of moisture, and become rough, less elastic, and saggy.

3 ways to restore firm skin

Do more exercises

Exercising can boost blood circulation and metabolism, stimulate collagen production, strengthen connective tissues that support bones, tendons and ligaments, slow down the speed of collagen loss, and prevent sunken and saggy skin. It is recommended to do moderate to intense exercises for at least 150 minutes per week, such as jogging, swimming and yoga.

Pay attention to sun protection and skincare

UV radiation is the skin’s greatest enemy, and it exists everywhere whether it's cloudy or sunny, outdoors or indoors. So, it is important to use appropriate sunscreen every day before leaving home and remove makeup and clean your face before applying skincare products at night. This can maximise their skincare effects and minimise the burden on the skin.

Receive medical aesthetic treatment

To stimulate collagen growth and combat ageing signs like saggy skin and wrinkles, receiving medical aesthetic treatment is undoubtedly the most effective way! Some radiofrequency (RF) treatments can penetrate the skin with heat energy to reach the dermis layer, accelerating the recovery of elastic fibres and stimulating collagen growth to support and plump the skin immediately.

The Only 360° Lifting Treatment with Gold RF × Water-Cooled System on the Market

DR REBORN’s Volnewmer®️ Gold Pile Treatment

DR REBORN’s Gold Pile Treatment is the only treatment combining gold RF technology and water-cooled technology on the market. It utilises 6.78MHz RF thermal energy and transfers heat and cold energy at the same time with unique gold-plated probes, which can transmit energy more evenly than conventional probes using plastic film. The probe’s unique streamlined hidden frame design has hidden the edges of the probe to avoid burns caused by overly concentrating energy while distributing energy more stably. Plus, the curved surface can transmit heat more evenly to the dermis layer, while the swing mode can flexibly move the probe vertically and horizontally close to the curved skin surface, ensuring the best effects.

In addition, the unique water-cooled system is more effective than the conventional air-cooled system in cooling down the epidermis layer continuously and can be used simultaneously with RF heat energy output. The system is equipped with 5 adjustable cooling temperature levels to ensure a stable and comfortable energy output that is safer and painless when compared to other RF treatments. The treatment comes with 4 exclusive probes that can deeply stimulate collagen in multiple areas, achieving anti-ageing effects such as reducing forehead wrinkles, lifting the apple cheeks, improving double chin, neck lines and nasolabial folds, tightening the eye zone, and lifting the eyelids, etc. It is definitely the secret to restoring your youthful glow!
