We can’t escape sagging skin all our lives, but that doesn’t mean we can’t postpone the moment when we have to say goodbye to our tight skin. Through a healthy lifestyle, for example, sun protection or surgery. <\/p>\n
The key to tight skin lies in the production of collagen. This gives strength to the body and thus to the skin. Unfortunately, starting at a certain age<\/strong> (usually around 25), more collagen fibers are broken down than are produced. Due to this lower production of collagen (and elastin), the skin inevitably becomes less firm and less elastic. <\/p>\n As we age (and exercise less), we also lose muscle mass<\/strong>. That muscle mass keeps the skin firm. The loss of muscle mass is a second natural factor that can cause skin to sag. Because the less muscle you have, the more their supporting role disappears. <\/p>\n A third natural cause of lower collagen production is hormonal changes<\/strong>, such as during menopause.<\/p>\n We cannot ignore the above natural causes of sagging skin, but in addition, the key lies with yourself. Here are some tips for tighter skin: <\/p>\n Have you lost the plea for tight skin? Then you should at least try to maintain the current situation as much as possible and not lose further elasticity, sometimes even manage to get improvement. There are a number of options for this: <\/p>\n Treating the skin with creams at home is the easiest. Using a skin analysis<\/strong> can determine which products best suit your skin type. MediSpa Knokke offers this analysis to help you make the best choice. <\/p>\n There are many types of skin care for sagging skin. Depending on your personal situation, you can choose a facial treatment for example with a peeling or using the DF device to get products better into your skin. <\/p>\n The Medisol LED lamp<\/strong> treatment helps well against inflammation and treats skin aging with light.<\/p>\n An LPG elevator massage<\/strong> is used to improve blood flow to the skin and stimulate collagen production.<\/p>\n Finally, Dermapen<\/strong> treatments are highly efficient micro needling techniques that stimulate collagen production and can also be used with Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and hyaluronic acid.<\/p>\n DNA analysis<\/strong> can help identify certain personal risks that can be optimized with nutritional supplements and life style advice. Menopause<\/strong> with its hormone changes has a major impact on skin quality. An inventory and treatment can provide improvement. <\/p>\n Furthermore, there are medical procedures that can restore some tension to the skin. Surgery<\/strong> involves tightening sagging, drooping skin. This can be done on different parts of the body: the face, neck, abdomen, arms or legs. If you opt for a facelift, wrinkles are corrected at the same time. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We can’t escape sagging skin all our lives, but that doesn’t mean we can’t postpone the moment when we have to say goodbye to our tight skin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":26539,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[53],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-27754","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-body-corrections"],"yoast_head":"\nHow can you avoid skin sagging yourself?<\/h2>\n
