Loose Skin: Symptoms, Causes and Treatments

Restore firmness and elasticity with advanced treatments for loose skin at Elevate Medical Aesthetics. Our personalised solutions target sagging skin to help you achieve a smoother, more youthful appearance.

What is Loose Skin?

Loose, crepey skin is a common concern caused by ageing, sun damage, or rapid weight changes. It often affects the abdomen, arms, legs, and other areas, impacting self-esteem and confidence.

 At Elevate Medical Aesthetics in Wakefield, we offer advanced, non-invasive treatments like Morpheus8 and Contour & Fix to effectively tighten and rejuvenate loose skin, helping you restore a youthful, firm appearance.

Symptoms of Loose Skin

  • Sagging or drooping skin in areas such as the abdomen, arms, legs, and neck.

  • Crepey or thin skin texture.

  • Reduced skin elasticity and firmness.

  • Visible folds or wrinkles in affected areas.

Causes of Loose Skin

  • Ageing: Natural loss of collagen and elastin leads to reduced skin elasticity.

  • Sun Damage: Prolonged UV exposure accelerates skin ageing and collagen breakdown.

  • Rapid Weight Changes: Sudden weight loss or gain stretches the skin, reducing its ability to bounce back.

  • Genetics: Skin elasticity varies depending on genetic factors.

  • Lifestyle Factors: Poor hydration, smoking, and inadequate nutrition can contribute to skin laxity.
