Skin laxity refers to the gradual loss of firmness, elasticity and structural support within the skin, most commonly affecting the face, jawline and neck. Over time, collagen and elastin production naturally declines, contributing to softer contours and reduced definition. A combination of ageing, sun exposure, genetics, weight fluctuations, and lifestyle factors can influence how skin changes over time. While every face ages differently, many people notice concerns such as a less defined jawline, early jowl formation, or a feeling that the face appears less lifted and refreshed than before.
