But, in addition to improving your habits, did you know that you can change your face and witness the difference of your facial sagging before and after? Nowadays there are different treatments to firm the face, as well as creams for facial sagging.
Creams to reduce facial sagging usually have natural components, however, there are some creams that use compounds that generate results similar to those of botox.
At the same time, in this article we tell you about the different exercises for facial flaccidity that you can easily perform from the comfort of your home.
However, since there are two types of facial flaccidity: tissue flaccidity and muscle flaccidity, which affect tissues and muscles respectively, sometimes, the simple act of exercising will not always give results.
What is facial sagging and what are the causes?
Over the years, the skin often loses its elasticity and volume. This youthful firmness is transformed into the sagging of the skin.
This sagging is common in the arms, legs, but also in the face. The areas of the face that are usually affected are the double chin, eyelids, bags under the eyes and/or other wrinkles on the face.
This flaccidity is caused by a lack of collagen, a substance present in large quantities in most mammals. Collagen provides the skin with stability.
On the other hand, there is also elastin, which contributes to the firmness of the skin.
Over time, it is normal to lose these substances. In facial flaccidity, the main cause is the reduction in the volume of the face as well as the loss of fat.
Sagging can occur in the neck, and treatment is usually similar or identical to that of the face. As you can see below, several creams offer a treatment for both areas.
