What is skin laxity and what can we do to treat it?
Skin laxity is characterised by the loss of skin firmness and structure which results in sagging and loose skin. This a natural part of the ageing process however skin laxity can be caused by a number of other factors. Excess weight gain and loss can also play a part in this where the skin has been stretched and no longer results to its natural position. This is also applicable to pregnancy where the skin stretches to accommodate the foetus. But what can we do to reverse this? At Klnik we have a number of treatments which can dramatically reduce skin laxity.
Radio frequency skin tightening - low energy radiation to penetrate the deep layers of the skin providing a lifting affect.
Dual high - also known as Hifu. Utalizes high intensity focused ultras sound to stimulate collagen.
Profhilo - An anti-ageing injectable treatment to increase skin tone, texture and hydration.
