Facial Sagging: Causes and How to Improve It
Sagging facial skin is one of the most common concerns as we age. At Germaine de Capuccini, we understand how important it is to feel confident in your skin. In this article, we explain what causes sagging skin and how you can improve it with effective routines and targeted treatments.
What Is Facial Sagging and Why Does It Occur?
Facial sagging refers to the gradual loss of firmness in the skin, particularly around the jawline, cheeks, neck and chin. As we age, the natural production of collagen and elastin declines, weakening the skin's support structure.
Other factors like stress, sun exposure, and poor diet can also speed up the process. That’s why at Germaine de Capuccini we offer visible results through our Timexpert Lift_IN line, formulated to address sagging from the source.
Signs of Sagging Skin on the Face
Recognising the early signs of facial sagging is key to taking action:
Less definition around the jawline
Mejillas más planas o hundidas
Flatter or sunken cheeks
More pronounced lines around the neck and chin
Slight drooping of the eyelids
Using products like our Firmness and Vitality Serum can help improve elasticity and firmness in the early stages.
Common Causes of Facial Sagging
Several factors contribute to facial sagging:
Age: Skin regeneration slows down naturally.
Genetics: Some people are more prone to losing firmness.
Sun exposure: UV rays break down collagen and elastin.
Hormonal changes: Such as those experienced during menopause.
Lifestyle habits: Smoking, stress and lack of sleep accelerate skin ageing.
Adopting healthy habits and using effective firming skincare products can help delay these visible signs.
Can You Prevent Sagging Facial Skin?
While some sagging is inevitable with age, early care and prevention go a long way. Daily SPF, proper hydration and using firming products can help preserve your skin’s elasticity.
The sooner you establish a consistent skincare routine, the more noticeable the results will be over time. Focus on strengthening the skin’s structure and protecting it from environmental stressors.
How to Improve Sagging Facial Skin
If you’ve already noticed visible signs of sagging, it’s important to take a proactive and consistent approach. Combining the right skincare with healthy habits can make a significant difference in your skin's evolution.
Here are some helpful tips:
Choose treatments with redensifying, firming and tightening ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid, peptides, or botanical extracts with lifting effects.
Integrate facial massages into your routine using your hands or tools like rollers or a gua sha. This boosts circulation and helps tone facial muscles.
Don’t forget the neck and décolleté areas, where the skin is thinner and more prone to losing firmness. They deserve as much care as the face.
Stay consistent, visible results require dedication and continuity.
Our Anti-Ageing Lifting Routine Timexpert Lift_IN offers a complete at-home treatment for visibly firmer skin.
