Understanding Skin Laxity and Firmness

Collagen and elastin are important proteins that help provide the skin with strength, structure and elasticity. Over time, their production naturally declines, which can contribute to skin becoming thinner, softer and less firm. This alongside changes in hydration and the skin’s ability to maintain its structure. Other factors such as sun exposure, lifestyle, genetics and environmental stressors can also influence the rate at which these changes occur.

Changes in skin firmness may be noticed as:

  • Reduced skin elasticity

  • Softer or less defined contours

  • Fine lines and changes in skin texture

  • A gradual loss of firmness

How the Face Changes With Age

Facial ageing is more than just changes in the skin. As we age, gradual changes occur across several layers of the face.

These can include:

  • Skin: Collagen, elastin and hydration levels gradually change, affecting firmness, texture and elasticity.

  • Fat: Facial fat compartments can change in size and position, altering facial contours and support.

  • Muscle: Repeated muscle activity contributes to the development and progression of expression lines.

  • Bone: Gradual changes to the underlying facial structure can influence the way the overlying tissues are supported.

Together, these changes can contribute to lines, wrinkles, changes in facial definition and shifts in the way light and shadow fall across the face.

It's More Than Just Skin Quality

There are different approaches that may be discussed to support skin quality, firmness and the appearance of ageing skin. The most suitable approach will depend on your individual skin, anatomy, concerns and goals.

At Evara, we believe understanding these processes is an important part of making informed decisions about your skin and facial aesthetics. Your individual anatomy, skin, movement and concerns are all considered during a consultation.
