LEARN MORESagging skin (face & body)
As the skin evolves over time, it naturally begins to lose some of the firmness and elasticity that once gave it structure and lift. This gradual softening can appear along the jawline, cheeks, neck, arms, or abdomen, often as a result of aging, weight fluctuations, or changes in collagen production. While these changes are part of a life well lived, they can sometimes make you feel less aligned with the way you see yourself.
Sagging skin is not a flaw. It is the result of complex and completely natural biological processes. Still, it is understandable to want to restore a sense of tone and support, especially in areas where the skin feels looser or less defined.
Fortunately, non-surgical skin tightening treatments now offer a gentle yet effective way to firm and rejuvenate the skin without downtime. Personalized solutions can stimulate collagen, lift contours, and restore confidence with care, precision, and respect for your natural beauty.
What causes sagging skin on the face and body?
Collagen and Elastin Breakdown
As we age our bodies produce less collagen and elastin. These are the key proteins responsible for keeping the skin firm strong and resilient. With time the skin becomes thinner and less able to return to its original shape which is especially noticeable on the jawline neck arms abdomen and thighs.
Volume Loss
In the face, loss of fat and bone density in areas like the cheeks, temples, and jaw can create a hollowed or deflated appearance. This volume loss contributes to sagging, particularly around the lower face, under the eyes, and at the corners of the mouth.
Weight Loss and Skin Stretching
Following major weight loss or pregnancy the skin may not fully retract to its earlier form especially if it has been stretched for an extended period. This is often seen on the abdomen inner thighs arms and back where the skin tends to be more delicate.
Sun Exposure and Environmental Damage
Years of UV exposure break down collagen fibers and accelerate skin aging. Combined with pollution, blue light, and free radical damage, this leads to a gradual weakening of the skin’s support network, particularly in sun-exposed areas like the face, chest, and shoulders.
Genetics and Lifestyle
Some people are genetically predisposed to early skin laxity. Lifestyle factors like smoking, dehydration, poor nutrition, and lack of sleep can also contribute to sagging by interfering with the body’s ability to maintain and repair healthy skin.
At Victoria Park Medispa, we offer a range of non-invasive skin tightening treatments designed to stimulate collagen production and gently firm the skin over time. Whether you’re looking to lift your jawline, tone your abdomen, or refresh your facial contours, our expert medical team will guide you with care, precision, and a personalized plan.

FAQ
Got questions about sagging skin? We’ve got answers!
What is the most effective treatment for sagging skin?
The best approach depends on the area treated, the degree of laxity, and your personal goals. For the face and neck, Morpheus8 and Ultherapy® are highly effective at tightening and lifting the skin by stimulating collagen and elastin. For larger body areas, Morpheus8 Body may be appropriate, depending on the clinical indication and skin quality.
Can sagging skin be tightened without surgery?
Yes. Non-surgical skin tightening treatments work by activating the body’s natural collagen production process. This results in gradual firming and lifting over time, with no incisions, anesthesia, or extended recovery.
How many sessions will I need?
Treatment plans are personalized. Ultherapy® often achieves noticeable results in just one session, while Morpheus8 may require a series of three to six sessions depending on the skin’s condition and the area being treated. Results build progressively over several weeks.
Can I combine skin tightening with other treatments?
Absolutely. Skin tightening often works well alongside dermal fillers, neuromodulators, laser resurfacing, or body contouring for a more complete rejuvenation. During your consultation, your provider will guide you through safe and effective treatment pairings based on your concerns.
Does age affect how well skin tightening works?
Yes. Younger skin with more collagen tends to respond more quickly. However, even mature skin can achieve visible improvement with the right treatment plan. Our technologies are designed to deliver progressive, natural-looking results regardless of age.
Are skin tightening treatments painful?
Most patients find treatments very tolerable. Neuromodulator injections involve minimal discomfort. Ultherapy® and Morpheus8 may cause a sensation of warmth or tingling during the session, and a topical numbing cream is often applied to enhance comfort.
Can sagging skin return after treatment?
Yes. While results are long lasting, the skin continues to age naturally. Maintenance treatments are recommended every 6 to 12 months to preserve your outcome and keep collagen levels supported over time.
