Lax skin refers to skin that has lost its firmness and elasticity, leading to a saggy, loose appearance. This condition can occur due to various factors such as aging, significant weight loss, or post-pregnancy changes. It typically manifests in the face, neck, arms, abdomen, and thighs. Some patients even present with saggy elbow skin and saggy knees.
The primary symptoms of lax skin include noticeable sagging, wrinkles, and a crepey texture. These symptoms often affect areas prone to stretching or where the skin has lost its ability to bounce back. In some cases, the skin may feel thinner and more delicate, making it more susceptible to damage.
At Morphologie, we provide advanced, non-surgical treatments that boost skin renewal and reduce skin laxity. Our options include Morpheus8 radiofrequency microneedling, ultrasound therapy, and loose skin laser skin tightening. These treatments stimulate the layer of tissue directly beneath the skin (subcutaneous tissue) to promote tighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin without invasive procedures.

Lax skin is caused by various factors that reduce skin elasticity and firmness.
As we age, the body produces less collagen and elastin, essential proteins that keep skin firm and elastic. This natural decline leads to a loss of skin structure and resilience, resulting in sagging and creases. The skin’s ability to repair itself also slows down with age, exacerbating the appearance of laxity.
Significant or rapid weight loss can leave excess, saggy skin, particularly in the abdomen, arms, and thighs. When the skin stretches to accommodate weight gain, it can lose its ability to retract fully after weight loss, leading to a loose and flabby appearance. Weight loss treatments, such as liposuction, may also require additional treatments to address the loose skin.
Post-pregnancy, many women experience loose skin, especially on the abdomen, resulting in a saggy stomach, due to the extensive stretching and hormonal changes. The skin may not return to its pre-pregnancy state because of the alterations in the body’s collagen and elastin levels during and after pregnancy.
Prolonged exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays can break down collagen and elastin fibers in the skin, leading to early signs of aging and laxity. Sun damage also causes skin to lose moisture and elasticity, resulting in a saggy and leathery texture.

Morpheus8 promotes skin tightening and rejuvenation by combining microneedling and radiofrequency technology. The micro-injuries stimulate the production of new collagen and elastin in the deeper layers of the skin, leading to firmer, smoother skin. It effectively treats various areas, including the face, neck, abdomen, and arms, and offers visible improvements with minimal downtime.
Our laser skin tightening treatments use targeted lasers to stimulate collagen production and tighten lax skin deep within the skin layers. This non-invasive procedure effectively addresses sagging skin on the face, neck, and body, reducing wrinkles and fine lines with long-lasting results. It involves minimal discomfort and downtime, making it an ideal complement to Morpheus8 for enhanced skin tightening and rejuvenation.
The treatment is ideal for contouring and tightening the face, neck, and jawline. The use of ultrasound and radiofrequency technologies means no incisions, minimal downtime, and natural-looking results without the risk of surgical scars.

Adopt these practices to maintain skin firmness and elasticity to help reduce premature aging of the skin.
A diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants supports skin health and collagen production. Incorporate foods high in vitamins C, E, and zinc to help maintain skin elasticity. Omega-3 fatty acids also contribute to the skin’s structural integrity and hydration.
Engage in regular physical activity to improve circulation, muscle tone, and overall skin health. Strength training exercises, in particular, help build muscle mass that can fill out the skin, reducing the appearance of sagging. Cardio exercises boost blood flow, delivering essential nutrients to skin cells.
Always use sunscreen with at least SPF 50 to protect your skin from harmful UV rays. Avoid excessive sun exposure, which can break down collagen and elastin, leading to premature skin aging and laxity. Wear protective clothing and seek shade whenever possible.
Drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your skin hydrated and maintain its elasticity. Proper hydration helps to keep the skin plump, smooth, and less prone to sagging. Aim for at least eight glasses of water daily, and increase intake during hot weather or intense physical activity.
