A sagging face refers to the loss of firmness and elasticity in the facial skin, primarily due to the reduction of collagen and elastin fibers. These fibers are crucial for maintaining the skin’s structure and definition. Over time, factors such as aging, sun exposure, and lifestyle habits can lead to noticeable sagging in areas like the upper eyelids, chin, and cheeks, resulting in a loss of facial contour.
Preventative Measures:
1. Use SPF Daily: Protect your skin from harmful UV rays by applying broad-spectrum sunscreen every day. This helps preserve natural collagen.
2. Maintain a Stable Weight: Avoid drastic weight changes to prevent stretching and sagging of the skin.
3. Healthy Diet: Consume a diet rich in vitamins, especially vitamin C, which is essential for collagen production.
4. Stay Hydrated: Drink at least two liters of water daily and limit alcohol consumption to maintain skin hydration.
Treatment Options:
1. Hyaluronic Acid Fillers: Administered by a physician, these fillers can restore volume to specific areas of the face.
2. Mesotherapy: This treatment involves mechanical stimulation with a needle and active ingredients to boost collagen and elastin production.
3. Topical Treatments: Professional treatments, such as the age element® treatment, use advanced formulas like the [meso]epigen system to activate youth proteins and increase the release of structural genes.

– Age element® firming eye contour: Provides a tightening effect around the eyelids.
– Age element® firming concentrate: Offers a lifting and restructuring effect for increased skin elasticity.
