Loose or Sagging Skin

Understanding Skin Laxity

Sagging or loose skin is a common concern that can develop as part of the natural aging process, after significant weight loss, or due to lifestyle and environmental factors. At The Centre for Cosmetic Surgery & Medicine, we offer advanced solutions to help restore a firmer, smoother, and more youthful appearance. Our practice provides both surgical and non-surgical options tailored to your needs, helping you feel confident and comfortable in your skin again.

Skin laxity occurs when collagen and elastin fibers weaken, causing the skin to lose its elasticity and firmness. Whether you are concerned about sagging skin on the face, neck, eyelids, or body, we provide state-of-the-art treatments that address both the underlying causes and visible effects. Our approach focuses on natural-looking results that enhance your overall appearance without compromising your unique features.

This condition can affect different areas of the body, from the face and neck to the arms, abdomen, and thighs. While lifestyle habits and genetics play a role, modern treatments make it possible to tighten skin and restore a youthful contour without relying on surgery alone.

Who Benefits from Sagging Skin Treatments

Treatments for sagging or loose skin can benefit adults of all ages who are experiencing visible skin laxity. Ideal candidates may include those who have:

  • Skin that appears droopy or wrinkled due to aging
  • Sagging around the jawline or neck
  • Loose skin on the upper or lower eyelids
  • Brow heaviness or forehead drooping
  • Lax skin on the arms, abdomen, thighs, or buttocks
  • Concerns about skin quality after significant weight loss
  • A desire for a smoother, more youthful contour without excessive downtime

A personalized consultation at our Wilmington or Lewes location will determine the most appropriate treatment plan based on your goals, skin quality, and overall health.

Treatments for Sagging or Loose Skin

We are proud to offer a range of surgical and non-surgical options to lift, tighten, and rejuvenate the skin.

Facelift

A surgical procedure that lifts and tightens sagging skin on the face and jawline. A facelift addresses deep creases, jowls, and loss of facial definition, creating a smoother and more youthful contour while preserving natural facial expressions.

Neck Lift

A surgical procedure that removes excess skin and tightens underlying muscles to create a smoother, more youthful neck and jawline contour.

Eyelid Surgery

Also known as blepharoplasty, this procedure corrects drooping eyelids and removes excess skin for a refreshed, more alert appearance.

Brow Lift

A surgical technique that elevates the brow position, smooths forehead lines, and reduces heaviness above the eyes.

Body Lift

A comprehensive surgical procedure that addresses loose skin in multiple areas, often after significant weight loss, to create a firmer, more contoured shape.

Renuvion Body Contouring

A minimally invasive treatment that uses helium plasma and radiofrequency energy to tighten skin and stimulate collagen production for long-lasting results.

Morpheus8

A cutting-edge microneedling and radiofrequency treatment that remodels tissue, improves skin texture, and enhances firmness on the face and body.

NeoGen Plasma

An advanced skin regeneration treatment that uses nitrogen plasma to stimulate collagen, tighten skin, and improve tone and texture without surgery.

Recovery and Post-Procedure Care

Recovery times vary depending on whether you choose a surgical or non-surgical treatment. Non-invasive options like Morpheus8 and NeoGen Plasma typically require little to no downtime, allowing you to return to most daily activities quickly. Surgical procedures such as a facelift, neck lift, eyelid surgery, or body lift may involve a recovery period of several days to weeks, during which activity restrictions will be recommended.

Most non-surgical treatments do not require time away from work. Surgical procedures may require one to three weeks off, depending on the procedure and your healing progress. Our team will provide a customized recovery plan to ensure the best results.

Long-Term Maintenance and Lifestyle Changes

To maintain your results, a healthy lifestyle is essential. Sun protection, proper hydration, and a balanced diet can help preserve skin elasticity. Non-surgical maintenance treatments may be recommended periodically to extend the benefits of your procedure.

Cost and Financial Considerations

The cost of treatment depends on the type of procedure, whether multiple areas are addressed, and your unique needs. Most treatments for sagging or loose skin are considered elective and are not covered by insurance. Our third-party financing partners offer flexible options, and payment plans to make achieving your goals more accessible. A personalized estimate will be provided during your consultation.
