Non-Surgical Skin Tightening For Sagging Skin
As we age, sagging skin becomes unavoidable. Our skin tends to become looser, more crepey and starts to sag. In thicker skin areas, such as the cheeks or buttocks, it may resemble jowls or sagging. In regions with thinner skin, like the eyelids, neck, and above the knees and elbows, skin can appear more wrinkled, crinkly, or crepey. Other causes of loose skin include weight loss and pregnancy.
What leads to loose, sagging skin?
Youthful skin benefits from thick layers of collagen, elastin, and even fat, which contribute to a smooth, supple, and firm appearance. However, as a person enters their thirties and beyond, their levels of collagen, elastin, and fat gradually deplete. Consequently, the skin becomes thinner and is more prone to sagging, folding, and wrinkling.
While some aspects of this process are inevitable such as aging, hormonal shifts, exposure to environmental toxins, stress, and sun damage/UV radiation, can speed up the process.
How to tighten sagging skin
At Gilded Leaf MedSpa, we provide the latest minimally invasive, non-surgical skin tightening procedures that are ideal for those wanting to avoid cosmetic surgery and achieve firmer, plumper, younger-looking skin in return. These include:
- Laser Resurfacing - gently removes the outer layer of your skin while encouraging the growth of new collagen, revealing smoother, firmer, and younger-looking skin.
- Dermal Fillers- provide safe solutions for replenishing facial volume, reducing signs of aging, and treating wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin by increasing collagen production and restoring lost volume through hyaluronic acid, with results lasting 6-18 months.
- Laser Rejuvenation - a non-invasive procedure that involves heating the skin causing the collagen to constrict, resulting in tighter skin and reduced signs of aging.

Dermal Fillers
As we age, our faces lose fat, making smile lines and crow's feet more pronounced. At the same time, the skin loses elasticity, which further adds to this loss of fullness. Sun exposure, genetics, and lifestyle choices like smoking can also affect how our facial skin looks.
At Gilded Leaf MedSpa, we help you to fall in love with your skin again using a simple aesthetic process known as dermal fillers. These cosmetic injectables are designed to quickly plump up the skin, smooth out wrinkles and restore facial fullness.
