Over time, skin loses its firmness, volume and radiance. Even if this phenomenon is natural, it can affect our appearance and, consequently, our self-image. The most vulnerable areas of the face and body, such as the cheeks, facial contours, neck and hands, can be particularly affected by sagging skin and loss of volume. Here are some of the main causes:

• Aging: Production of collagen and elastin, responsible for skin structure and elasticity, declines with age, leading to sagging and loss of volume.
• Loss of subcutaneous fat: The fat that supports the skin shrinks over the years, accentuating hollows and wrinkles, particularly around the cheeks and temples.
• Hormonal fluctuations: After menopause, the drop in estrogen accelerates the loss of firmness, particularly on the face.
• Environmental factors: Sun exposure, pollution, smoking and stress can exacerbate these effects, making skin looser and less toned.
