Concerns About Sagging Skin
That "sagging,"
What's bothering you?
Although we use the general term “sagging,” the specific areas of concern vary from person to person. At our clinic, we begin by carefully assessing exactly where your concerns are manifesting.
Everyone has their own places they're curious about.
But what’s happening behind the scenes is the same.
The Structure of Sagging
The true cause of sagging is,
It's not just one.
The face is composed of five layers: skin, subcutaneous fat, SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system), supporting ligaments, and bone. Even changes commonly referred to simply as “sagging” vary from person to person in terms of what is happening in each layer.
skin
The outermost layer, which provides firmness and elasticity.
As collagen and elastin levels decrease and elasticity declines, the skin as a whole begins to sag.
Subcutaneous fat
The layer that creates facial fullness and soft contours.
"Sagging," which occurs when the skin loses its support, and "atrophy," in which the fat tissue itself shrinks. These are two distinct changes. Sagging manifests as a loose, sagging jawline, while atrophy appears as sunken or hollow cheeks.
SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System)
A membrane that supports the entire face as a "surface" beneath the skin and fat.
When the skin loses its elasticity and the support provided by the facial structure weakens, the entire face sags and the facial contours become less defined.
Supportive Ligaments
Ligaments that connect the bones to the skin and anchor the facial tissues at specific points.
The face also has ligaments. When these ligaments stretch and loosen, the tissues they were holding in place sag along with the underlying structure, leading to noticeable sagging that appears as “lines,” such as nasolabial folds and marionette lines.
骨
The foundation that supports all the layers.
Facial bones also become thinner with age, reducing the surface area that provides support. This leads to a loss of support around the eyes, cheeks, and jawline.
In reality, it is not uncommon for multiple layers to be involved simultaneously.
That is precisely why our clinic,Skin Rejuvenation Injections, Devices, Thread Lifts, PRP(at sentence-end, falling tone) indicates a confident conclusion
We offer four different approaches.
Philosophy
Naturally, for the better.
This is a comment we often hear from clients seeking advice on sagging skin.
Even though we use the single term “sagging,” when we listen carefully, we find that each person’s desires are different. First, we carefully ask what kind of changes you’re hoping for and assess your current condition. Based on that, we consider whether you want a significant change or a more subtle one, and how far we should go—we break it down into several scenarios and strive to present as many possible options as we can. Rather than simply recommending something unilaterally, we strive to be a trusted beauty advisor. That is our philosophy.
Our clinic’s guiding philosophy is “Naturally, for the better.” We hope to support you in your daily life—helping you feel natural and comfortable, and giving you a little boost of confidence when you look in the mirror.
We do not have counselors at our clinic; our doctors will listen to your concerns from the very beginning. We also welcome patients who come in just for a consultation. We would be delighted if you would consider us as one of your options the moment you start to notice even the slightest signs of sagging.
The Smuski Philosophy
Eliminate anything unnecessary, and
Toward the Essence of Treatment.
We thoroughly eliminate anything unrelated to the quality of medical care—such as lavish interiors and excessive advertising—and allocate those savings to the essentials of treatment: medications, equipment, and the skills of our physicians. Our clinic’s skin tightening treatments are also based on this “Smart Essential” philosophy.
