Sagging jowls are one of the most common effects of the aging process. As people age, collagen production decreases and the skin’s elasticity is also compromised. There are various cosmetic treatments available these days to correct this skin issue, one of which is Ultherapy skin tightening.
Jowls are those small pouches on your face that develop along the jaw line. With the loss of elasticity, gravity can impact the skin by pulling it down, which then results in sagging jowls. And these can considerably change your appearance. Apart from making you look older than your actual age, or make you look sad or tired all the time even if you’re really not, sagging jowls can also change the shape of your face.
With that said, a lot of people have turned to various treatments to address this common facial skin problem. From DIY (do it yourself) remedies to cosmetic procedures, various options are considered and undertaken to regain their youthful appearance.
Fine lines and wrinkles may be covered up with make-up or slightly reduced through OTC creams, but with sagging jowls, a DIY solution is not so easily attainable. Heavy make-up cannot hide them, and OTC creams cannot actually lift sagging skin this extreme. Others will resort to a shorter haircut—about chin-length short—to partially cover their sagging jowls but these are not very effective remedies.
With Ultherapy skin tightening treatment, sagging jowls and other loose facial skin are given a natural-looking lift without surgery. Not only that, the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles is also reduced when you receive this type of non-invasive cosmetic treatment. So really, you are targeting several skin problems with one effective solution.
If you’re not sold on the idea of a surgical facelift but would still want to receive the best treatment there is for sagging jowls, loose skin around the neck area, fine lines and wrinkles on your face and décolletage, your best option is Ultherapy skin tightening.
