Sagging - Body
Sagging skin is a common concern, especially after age 35, when loss of firmness and drooping skin become more noticeable. Areas such as the abdomen, inner thighs, and arms are often the most affected. Sagging skin is a multifactorial condition that can be influenced by several factors: photoaging, which dehydrates the skin and accelerates the breakdown of collagen and elastin; a low-protein diet; smoking; genetic predisposition; prolonged use of certain medications; rapid weight loss; and a sedentary lifestyle. This condition can affect both the skin and muscles, which is why at Beldon Medical we advocate for a combined therapy that addresses the causes of sagging skin holistically, helping to restore firmness and improve the skin's appearance.
