Facial sagging refers to the loss of firmness and elasticity in the skin, resulting in a drooping or sagging appearance. It is a natural part of the aging process and can be influenced by factors such as genetics, sun exposure, lifestyle choices, and collagen depletion. As we age, the production of collagen and elastin, which are responsible for maintaining skin elasticity, gradually decreases, leading to sagging and laxity.
Facial sagging can affect various areas of the face, including the cheeks, jowls, jawline, neck, and eyebrows. Common signs of facial sagging include drooping skin, deepening of nasolabial folds, the appearance of jowls, and loss of facial contours.
At Skin Cosmetics London, we offer effective treatment options to address facial sagging and help you achieve a more lifted and youthful appearance:
Dermal Fillers: Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers can be used to restore lost volume and provide a lifting effect to sagging areas. These fillers are strategically injected to plump up sagging skin and enhance facial contours, resulting in a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. The results are immediate and can last several months to a year, depending on the type of filler used.
Thread Lift: Thread lift is a non-surgical procedure that uses dissolvable threads to lift and support the tissues of the face. This treatment stimulates collagen production and provides subtle yet noticeable lifting effects, helping to improve facial sagging and restore a more lifted and defined look. The results can last up to a year or longer.
Radiofrequency or Ultrasound Treatments: Non-invasive treatments such as radiofrequency or ultrasound therapy can stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin, promoting a more lifted and toned appearance. These treatments help improve facial sagging by enhancing skin elasticity and providing a more youthful look.
Facial Exercises: Certain facial exercises and muscle-strengthening techniques can help improve muscle tone and provide a mild lifting effect to sagging areas. Regular practice of these exercises may help improve facial sagging over time.
Surgical Procedures: In cases of more severe facial sagging, surgical procedures such as facelifts or neck lifts may be recommended. These procedures involve removing excess skin, tightening underlying tissues, and repositioning facial structures to provide a more dramatic and long-lasting lifting effect.
During your consultation at Skin Cosmetics London, our experienced clinicians will assess your specific concerns and recommend the most suitable treatment options to address your facial sagging effectively. We will provide personalized care, guiding you through the process to help you achieve a more lifted, youthful, and rejuvenated facial appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Facial Sagging?
Facial sagging, also known as facial ptosis, is a common sign of aging that occurs when the skin, muscles, and tissues of the face lose their natural firmness and elasticity. As we age, several factors contribute to facial sagging, leading to a less defined and more tired appearance. Some of the primary causes of facial sagging include:
Loss of Collagen and Elastin: Collagen and elastin are essential proteins that provide structural support and elasticity to the skin. As we age, the production of these proteins decreases, leading to a loss of skin firmness and sagging.
Gravity: Over time, the effects of gravity can cause the skin and soft tissues to droop downward, leading to sagging in areas such as the cheeks, jowls, and neck.
Facial Fat Redistribution: The distribution of fat in the face changes with age, resulting in a loss of volume in some areas and an accumulation of fat in others. This uneven fat distribution can contribute to facial sagging.
Muscle Weakness: The weakening of facial muscles with age can contribute to sagging, as the muscles are less able to support the skin and tissues.
Sun Damage: Prolonged exposure to the sun’s harmful UV rays can accelerate the breakdown of collagen and elastin, leading to premature sagging and aging.
Lifestyle Factors: Unhealthy lifestyle habits, such as smoking, poor diet, and inadequate skincare, can also contribute to facial sagging.
Facial sagging can manifest in various ways, including drooping cheeks, deepening of nasolabial folds, jowls, and a loss of definition along the jawline and chin. While facial sagging is a natural part of the aging process, it can affect one’s self-esteem and confidence.

How does Facial Sagging treatment work?
Facial sagging treatment works by targeting the underlying causes of sagging skin and tissues, promoting collagen production, and providing support to lift and tighten the facial contours. At SKIN COSMETICS LONDON, we offer a range of non-invasive and minimally invasive treatments that effectively combat facial sagging. Here’s how these treatments work:
Dermal Fillers: Dermal fillers are injectable gels made from substances like hyaluronic acid. When strategically injected into areas with sagging or lost volume, they add instant volume, restore facial contours, and reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. The filler also attracts and retains moisture, improving skin hydration and elasticity.
Thread Lift: A thread lift is a non-surgical procedure that uses dissolvable threads with tiny barbs to lift and reposition sagging skin. During the treatment, threads are inserted under the skin to provide immediate support and lift. Over time, the threads stimulate collagen production, leading to further skin tightening and rejuvenation.
Radiofrequency (RF) Therapy: RF therapy delivers controlled radiofrequency energy to the deeper layers of the skin. This stimulates collagen production and promotes tissue tightening, effectively reducing sagging and improving skin texture. RF treatments are safe and can be used on various areas of the face and neck.
Ultrasound Therapy: Ultrasound therapy, such as Ultherapy®, uses focused ultrasound energy to target specific depths beneath the skin’s surface. This energy triggers the body’s natural healing response, stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin. Ultrasound therapy is particularly effective for lifting and tightening areas prone to sagging, such as the cheeks, jowls, and neck.
Combination Treatments: In some cases, a combination of treatments may be recommended to achieve optimal results. The combination approach may involve using different treatments to target specific areas of facial sagging, providing a comprehensive and tailored solution.
Natural-Looking Results: All the treatments we offer at SKIN COSMETICS LONDON are designed to provide natural-looking results. Our experienced professionals employ precise techniques to ensure the treatments blend seamlessly with your facial features, avoiding an overdone or unnatural appearance.
Facial sagging treatment is a safe and effective way to restore a more youthful and lifted appearance without the need for invasive surgery. During your consultation, our experienced professionals will assess your specific facial concerns and recommend a personalized treatment plan that best addresses your needs and goals.

How long will the results last?
The duration of results from facial sagging treatments can vary depending on several factors, including the type of treatment, individual metabolism, lifestyle habits, and the specific treatment approach. While individual responses may differ, here are some general considerations regarding the longevity of the results:
Type of Treatment: Different treatments have varying durations of results. Dermal fillers, for example, typically provide results that last from six months to over a year, depending on the type of filler used. Thread lifts and ultrasound therapy may offer longer-lasting results, with effects lasting up to two years or more.
Individual Factors: Each individual’s metabolism and body’s natural breakdown of the treatment can influence how long the results last. Some individuals may experience longer-lasting effects, while others may require more frequent touch-ups.
Maintenance Treatments: To maintain the desired results, periodic touch-up sessions may be recommended. These maintenance treatments can help extend the effects of the initial treatment and ensure consistent results over time.
Skin Care Routine: A good skincare routine, including sun protection and proper hydration, can also impact the longevity of the results. Taking care of your skin can help preserve the effects of the treatment.
Preventive Measures: Addressing facial sagging early and proactively can prevent it from becoming more pronounced over time. Regular treatment and maintenance sessions may lead to longer-lasting benefits.
Personalized Follow-Up: Our team at SKIN COSMETICS LONDON will schedule follow-up appointments to assess the longevity of the results and discuss any additional treatments or touch-ups if necessary.
It’s important to note that facial sagging treatments are a temporary solution for addressing signs of aging. Over time, the body naturally metabolizes the treatments, and the effects may gradually diminish. However, regular maintenance sessions and proactive care can help sustain the results and prevent more significant sagging from occurring.
During your consultation, our experienced professionals will discuss the expected duration of the results based on the specific treatment plan and the type of treatment used. Our goal is to provide safe and effective treatments that help you achieve a more lifted and youthful appearance, addressing facial sagging and enhancing your overall facial harmony.
