Sagging skin is a common characteristic of the aging process. An individual loses collagen, elasticity and fat volume in the face. Skin responds to the loss by sagging – hanging or drooping down. An individual gets a "turkey neck" or loose jowls. They have a falling face or drooping tummy. Sagging skin or lipoatrophy is a condition many individuals choose to address through plastic surgery. Several methods or procedures may be used by a plastic surgeon to address the perceived problem. He or she can utilize dermal fillers. These soft tissue fillers restore the volume in the injected areas. The plastic surgeon can also employ laser skin resurfacing. This may involve a CO2 laser or IPL treatment. Another possibility is a tummy-tuck to address sagging skin around the belly or a facelift to tighten the skin of the face. A min-lift will also help reduce signs of sagging skin.
