Sagging Skin Treatments in Singapore
Ageing can cause various changes to our skin, including sagging skin, that can substantially impact our self-esteem, making us feel much more conscious about how others view us. Sagging skin, in particular, typically occurs as a result of a gradual loss in skin volume due to reduced collagen and elastin production. Collagen and elastin are responsible for maintaining our skin’s elasticity and firmness; over time, factors such as genetics, UV exposure, and smoking can cause various alterations that weaken our skin structures and accelerate the signs of ageing.
In skin aesthetic clinic in Singapore, we can help you restore your skin’s complexion and improve its elasticity and firmness to curb sagging skin.
What is Sagging Skin?
Our skin is both elastic and firm in that it is stretchable while still being able to return to its original shape. Due to ageing, hormonal changes, or various external factors, collagen and elastin levels are gradually reduced and, thus, cause your skin to be less elastic. In fact, some factors can also be quite harmful to your health in the long term.
Causes of Sagging Skin
- Prolonged UV exposure leaves you vulnerable to harmful UVA and UVB rays that can penetrate your skin and affect the deeper layers of your skin structures. As a result, it can accelerate free radical damage to your skin and the signs of ageing, especially sagging skin.
- Pollutants in the air can permeate our skin, forming free radicals that damage our skin’s internal structures and impair collagen and elastin production.
- Some medical conditions are known to weaken you and cause sagging skin and other complications.
- Significant weight loss can cause sagging skin, as being overweight for a long time can damage your skin’s collagen and elastin fibres. Therefore, it can be harder for your skin to restore to its original shape, even after you have lost weight.
Some factors are still within our control, and we can take the necessary steps to treat sagging skin. In other cases, these contributing factors – like genetics – cannot be avoided despite our best efforts.
How to Get Rid of Sagging Skin
Preventive measures are the best way to prevent sagging skin, and you can start with simple measures like having a healthy diet and regular exercise. Thankfully, dermatological treatments can also help you to treat sagging skin using safe and effective non-surgical treatment procedures. You can relax knowing you will not have to go under the knife to restore your skin’s youthful complexion.
Getting Rid of Sagging Skin in Singapore
With CuraMed Medical and Aesthetic Clinic, you can choose from two of our targeted therapies to help overcome your sagging skin worries.
Ultherapy
Ultherapy is an FDA-approved, non-invasive treatment procedure that helps to tighten, tone and lift your skin. We use a device that focuses “micro-focused ultrasound” on your skin’s deep structural layers, generating a thermal effect that helps to stimulate collagen production; the new collagen will help lift the skin around your chin area and counteract your double chin. The procedure is certified safe and does not cause any harm to your body; it delivers the right amount of energy to the right skin layer and at the right temperature.
Depending on your treatment area, an Ultherapy session can last anywhere between 45 minutes to 1 hour. You can freely return to your regular daily activities right after your treatment is completed with no downtime; you may experience some mild side effects, but these are rare and only temporary. You may see some promising results after the first session, but the full extent of the treatment’s benefits can be seen within the next two to three months.
The price of Ultherapy treatment will depend on your skincare requirements or the number of sessions you need for the best results. There is no fixed price for every individual.
Facial Contouring
Are you thinking of getting a makeover to treat your sagging skin? Our noninvasive facial contouring treatment may be just the right fit for you: it improves your face’s natural angles, contours, and general structure while addressing facial shape and skin texture with dermal fillers.
Hyaluronic acid is a major component of our dermal fillers, which hydrates the skin and adds volume to the facial area. The fillers are also essential to boosting renewed collagen production in your skin to help improve its overall flexibility and restore its firmness. Combined with our facial contouring techniques, we can help create an ideal facial shape you will love.
A facial contouring session lasts 30 to 45 minutes, depending on your facial needs. Minimal downtime also means you can get back to your daily routines in no time, giving you newfound confidence to step out into the light with your restored complexion and uplifted features. Results can easily last you up to a year or more, especially with follow-ups to help monitor your skin’s health and condition.
