Over time skin becomes lose. Aging causes collagen to break down. This can result in jowls, wrinkling, and other unwanted effects. Lose skin is not just a symptom of aging. Weight loss, particularly rapid weight loss, can often cause sagging skin too. Sometimes loose skin is the result of a pregnancy. Often mothers experience loose skin in the abdominal area after having a baby. While diet, exercise and toning may return the stomach to a pre-pregnancy size, sagging of the skin may still be problematic.

Understanding the Dynamics of Skin
The skin is an organ that covers the body. That means the skin is comprised of groups of cells. Skin cells are made up of the epidermis or outer layer that you see, and the lower epidermis more often called the dermis and subdermis. The epidermis or outer layer of the skin is constantly shed and replaced, gaining new cells. The layers underneath contain connective tissue, blood vessels, fibers and other essential ingredients that stretch or pull back. How well these fibers and tissues contract or stretch depends on many factors, including age, diet, exercise, genetics and treatments.
Best Treatments for Skin
There are several things that you can do to keep your skin looking its best. One of the most important steps you can take is keeping your body hydrated. The skin needs water to look and feel its best. Eating foods that contain lean protein will also help build collagen and elastin. These ingredients are essential building blocks of healthy and vibrant skin. Moisturizing skin with vitamin E, vitamin C, aloe vera and other natural products can also help improve the appearance and texture of your skin. Radiofrequency is a new treatment that can improve skin’s texture and tighten skin immediately. This non-invasive treatment is available at select treatment centers. Radiofrequency technology works by reducing fat under the skin, and by heating the collagen, causing collagen in the skin to take on a new and healthier shape. No surgery is necessary and the treatment is pain free.
