Volume Loss in the Face
Young faces typically boast smoother contours, healthy fullness, and firm, smooth skin. However, as we age, all these features gradually begin to deteriorate.
As we age, the decrease in proteins like collagen and elastin causes our skin to lose its elasticity, leading to dryness and the onset of wrinkles due to moisture loss. Reduction in fat pads under the skin occurs in most areas, while in some, growth may occur in a manner that contributes to an aged appearance. Additionally, facial muscles weaken, supportive ligaments loosen, and facial bones begin to recede. With all these negative changes compounded by the effects of gravity, we experience volume loss in our faces, resulting in sagging downwards.
Aging affects not only our faces but also changes in the neck and hands, which can be equally distressing.
Aging is a natural process, but now it's possible to go through this process more gracefully with subtle interventions without compromising our natural appearance. There are various treatments available to mitigate these losses, tailored to the needs of each individual. Combination therapies, where multiple methods are used together, often yield more successful outcomes.
For those with minimal volume loss, treatments such as mesotherapy, calcium, or collagen-stimulating therapies are employed to improve skin quality, moisturize, and tighten the skin by stimulating collagen. However, if volume loss is significant, treatments utilizing hyaluronic acid-based volumizing agents are preferred.
