Q: What Causes skin laxity?

A: As we age, that wonderful little thing called gravity has its way with our body. We start to get “loose” skin, and we start to see more and more wrinkles as we get older. This unfortunately is all part of life, but there are ways to improve these issues.

Q: How do you treat someone with skin laxity?

A: Since skin laxity is a loss of your body’s own elastin and collagen, we have several laser devises that use thermal energy called radio frequency or RF energy and Ultrasound. Radio frequency is a type of energy that is most commonly used to heat the dermal layer of the skin and creates a process of collagen remodeling. Ultrasound is a heating platform that is able to penetrate and target deeper than just the dermal layer. As we heat up the dermal layer not only are we able to create new collagen but we are also helping to create elastin. Elastin is what give your skin that instant “tight” feeling.
