You may think you know Why skin sags
Today we are going to looking at Why skin sags as more than one reason. The most common causes of sagging skin is ageing. As you age, your skin loses the collagen and elastin, which are your skin’s supportive connective tissue, this is what makes it look soft, plump and youthful. But thats not only reason our skin sags. As we age our body changes shape and we actually become smaller the muscles atrophy through wear and tear particularly on the face after all you cant lift weight with your face to help keep the muscles firm. The have found that the bone its self also changes and recedes so all this coupled with age all leads to sagging skin. But is that the only reason our skin ages?
Unfortunately not as you don’t have be old to have saggy skin. Sun exposure is another reason that the skin loses its elasticity. The sun’s powerful rays damage skin cells and, over time, this can increase the effects of ageing. So when you are soaking up the suns rays getting the perfect tan, you are also breaking down your collagen and elastin, which can lead to saggy skin and wrinkles.
Other causes of saggy skin is with extreme weight loss,if you lose large amounts of weight over a short period of time, can cause skin to sag. which can be very frustrating after all your hard work.
Smoking also contributes to saggy skin , but therein culprit is gravity.Everyday we walk, sit, and move around in an upright position our skin is affected by gravity. After numerous years of fighting the natural downward pull our skin begins to give in and sag downward. The effects of this gravitational pull does not show up until we are well into our mature years but the weakening of the skin happens from the day we are born.
But all is not lost tomorrow we will be looking at different ways you can help prevent your skin from sagging.
