Skin Laxity Treatment
Procedure for Loose Skin

Skin laxity, or loose skin, can affect your appearance and self-confidence. At the top aesthetic skin clinic in Melbourne, Appearance Clinic Australia, we offer a range of treatments to tighten and firm your skin, helping you achieve a more youthful and toned look.

Causes of Skin Laxity

Several factors contribute to the development of skin laxity, including:

  • Aging: As we age, the production of collagen and elastin decreases, leading to a loss of skin firmness.
  • Sun Exposure: Prolonged exposure to UV rays can damage the skin and accelerate the breakdown of collagen and elastin.
  • Weight Loss: Significant weight loss can result in excess, loose skin.
  • Genetics: A family history of skin laxity can increase your likelihood of experiencing this condition.
  • Lifestyle Factors: Poor diet, smoking, and lack of exercise can contribute to the loss of skin elasticity.

Available Treatments for Skin Laxity

At Appearance Clinic Australia, we offer a range of treatments to address skin laxity. Our treatments are tailored to meet your individual needs and help you achieve a firmer, more youthful appearance.

1. Non-Surgical Treatments

  • Radiofrequency Therapy: This treatment uses radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin.
  • Ultrasound Therapy: Ultrasound waves can penetrate deep into the skin, promoting collagen growth and skin tightening.
  • Laser Therapy: Laser treatments can improve skin texture and firmness by stimulating collagen production. Our Cutera Laser Genesis Therapy can help.
  • Microneedling: The RF microneedling procedure creates tiny micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating the body's natural healing process and boosting collagen production.

2. Surgical Treatments

  • Facelift: A facelift can remove excess skin and tighten the underlying tissues, creating a more youthful facial contour.
  • Body Contouring Surgery: Procedures such as tummy tucks or arm lifts can remove excess skin and improve body contours.

What is Skin Laxity?

Skin laxity refers to the looseness and sagging of the skin, which can occur on the face, neck, and body. It is a common sign of aging but can also result from weight loss or other factors. Loose skin can create an aged appearance and affect the overall contour of the body and face.
