Skin Laxity Treatment

Skin laxity is one of the most common age-related aesthetic concerns and one of the most multifactorial: the visible sagging and loss of firmness results from declining production of type I and III collagen, fragmentation of elastin fibres, reduced hyaluronic-acid content in the extracellular matrix and the gradual downward migration of subcutaneous fat pads that previously provided structural support. No single treatment fully addresses all of these…

At Derma Medical Clinic the skin laxity programme is built around DermaPen microneedling, which provides the deepest structural stimulus for collagen neosynthesis. At the mid-dermis depths used for laxity treatment (1.0–2.0 mm), the DermaPen punctures reach the zone of active fibroblast activity, initiating a robust wound-healing response. Over the four to six weeks following each session, fibroblasts produce new type I and III collagen fibres that…

HydraFacial sessions complement the microneedling component by addressing the hydration and surface quality dimension of laxity. As the dermis loses hyaluronic-acid content with age, the skin surface becomes duller, drier and less resilient, accentuating the visible appearance of laxity. The HydraFacial Vortex-Fusion serum infusion restores surface hydration, improves skin turgor and creates a visibly refreshed appearance that enhances the overall…
