What causes sagging jowls?
The natural process of ageing causes skin to change in many different ways. When you mix this with lifestyle factors such as diet, the environment and sun exposure, your skin really gets tested and put through the ringer.
As we age, collagen and elastin production in our skin starts to decrease. Both of these natural proteins are essential in helping our skin look plump, tighter and more youthful. When we lose collagen and elastin in our skin, we start to develop dull, fragile and loose skin.
The main ways ageing changes our skin include:
- Skin laxity – which results from a decline in skin elasticity and lower levels of elastin and collagen production.
- Loss of facial fat – especially around the cheeks, eyes, and chin, which leads to a more lean look and sagging skin forming in these areas.
- Sagging skin can lead to excess fat cells moving or building up in certain areas of the face, such as the chin or jowls. As a result, you start to see a double chin or saggy jowls.
- Skin texture becomes rough – which results from a loss of oil and hydration in the skin
Are non-surgical treatments for sagging jowls effective?
Yes, the good news is that there are several treatment options that can reduce the appearance of jowls and lift sagging skin.
Each of the treatments works differently and targets different skin issues. You may require one type of treatment or a combination of treatments to achieve the desired look.
When you meet with one of our doctors or practitioners at Time Clinic, we will assess your skin condition and the severity of your saggy skin. From this, we can develop a bespoke treatment plan that will help you achieve amazing results.
Below are some of the best options for skin-sagging and skin-tightening treatments at our London clinic. All of these treatments require minimal downtime and impressive results.
The best non-surgical treatments for sagging skin
HArmonyCa
What is HArmonyCa
The HArmonyCa treatment brings two different benefits to the skin. Firstly, it uses hyaluronic acid dermal filler to help instantly lift sagging skin and hydrate it.
Secondly, it uses calcium hydroxylapatite, which helps collagen production over time. This means you will continue to see a lifting effect in the skin tissue, and our skin will continue to look and feel smoother and hydrated months after your treatment.
Check out this video from Dr Bawa on how HArmonyCA works.
Results:
HArmonyCa shows an immediate lifting effect, which makes it a great option for treating sagging jowls. As the Biostimulation occurs in the skin, which increases new collagen, you will continue to see a reduction in the appearance of jowls and a double chin. This happens over the 3-9 months after your treatment.
The results can last for 12-18 months. At this point, we will recommend that you come back into the clinic for a top-up treatment.
Dermal filler treatments
What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers or dermal filler treatment uses an injectable gel-like substance that contains hyaluronic acid. This helps to instantly plump and lift the skin around the jawline and other areas of the face.
Dermal fillers can also help to hydrate and add definition to the jawline, chin, cheeks and lips. So, on top of lifting jowls, they can also help create more shape to your jawline and correct a weak chin.
Results
You will see an instant lifting and plumping effect straight after your treatment. You will need to allow the fillers to settle, which can take up to two weeks. This is when you will see your final results.
The results of your dermal fillers should last for 9-12 months. At around the nine-month mark, we would recommend that you come into the clinic to have a top-up treatment.
Wrinkle relaxing injections
What are wrinkle-relaxing injections?
Wrinkle relaxing treatment, also known as Botox treatment, is an injectable treatment that contains botulinum toxin type A. This is a protein that works by relaxing the facial muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles to form. These are the wrinkles that show when we smile or frown.
This treatment is mostly used to treat fine lines and wrinkles. However, when we use it skillfully in the depressor muscles (which pull the face down), we can create the illusion of a more lifted look to the lower face.
Results
The results of anti-wrinkle injections last for around 3-4 months. At this point, the muscles will return to their normal function. A top-up treatment after 3 months will help maintain your great results.
Polynucleotides
What are polynucleotides?
The polynucleotide treatment is a cutting-edge treatment that can help rejuvenate the skin and improve the health and quality of your skin.
They are an injectable treatment that uses the power of DNA to stimulate collagen and elastin production in the skin. Not only does this help to build a thicker and healthier skin barrier, but it also hydrates the skin and leads to smoother and firmer-looking skin.
Results
For the best lifting and firming results, you will need a course of 3-4 treatments. These will need to be spaced a few weeks apart to allow your skin to start building new collagen.
You may see some improvements in your skin after your first treatment. However, you will see the full benefits within a few weeks or months as your body responds to the treatment.
To maintain your results, we do recommend a top-up treatment at the 12-month mark.
