Primary cause
The primary cause of sagging skin is the natural ageing process. As we grow older, the production of collagen and elastin, essential proteins responsible for skin elasticity, slows down. This is accompanied by diminishing fat deposits beneath, leading to reduced volume and support. A less supportive structure can allow the remaining fatty deposits to shift position and fall into pockets of thin skin, causing heaviness around the lower face.
Genetic factors, sun exposure, smoking, and poor skincare habits can also accelerate the onset of sagging skin. Sun exposure is a significant contributor to facial sagging. UV rays damage collagen and elastin fibres, leading to premature ageing. Smoking, on the other hand, accelerates the breakdown of collagen and inhibits blood flow to the skin, further exacerbating sagging.
