Home Remedies For Loose And Sagging Skin

What Causes Sagging Skin?
Skin laxity, or looseness, occurs as a result of the aging process, genetics or overexposure to the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays, also called photodamage. Over time, collagen and elastin production, two proteins responsible for giving the skin its elasticity, is diminished. As a result, skin begins to loosen and sag.

How to Tighten Loose Skin
A variety of products, procedures and treatments are available to decrease skin laxity and stimulate the production of new collagen. Skin tightening methods can be categorized as:

Topical treatments, such as creams and lotions
Noninvasive procedures: treatments performed at your dermatologist’s office that do not cause damage to the skin and result in little to no downtime
Minimally invasive procedures: treatments that require sedation or anesthesia, cause some damage to the skin and result in some downtime
Surgical procedures, or plastic surgery: procedures that provide the most dramatic results, but at the cost of extensive side effects and downtime
Over-the-Counter Skin Tightening Home Remedies
A number of over-the-counter (OTC) cosmetic products are formulated with ingredients proven to stimulate collagen production and decrease skin laxity. Effective skin tightening creams, lotions and toners include a combination of:

Vitamin B3, or niacinamide, which serves as an anti-aging agent
Vitamin C, or L-ascorbic acid, to increase collagen production
Vitamin E, or alpha-tocopherol, to smooth and moisturize the skin, aid in wound healing and protect the skin from sun damage
Retinol, or vitamin A, a compound proven to stimulate collagen production
Tretinoin, a vitamin A derivative, that functions in much the same way as Retinol
Peptides, combinations of amino acids that encourage collagen production and firm the skin
Hyaluronic acid (HA), an ingredient that hydrates your skin and improves elasticity
Salicylic and glycolic acid, ingredients used to exfoliate the skin to help other ingredients to be better absorbed.
