Many people find that they have loose skin on the waist and there are several causes for this sagging, excess skin. It is a completely normal feature of many men and women’s bodies, but it can lead to self-consciousness and lowered self-esteem for some.
Loose skin on the waist is commonly caused by a dramatic weight loss, where the skin was once stretched out. For many women, this occurs after pregnancy if the skin cannot bounce back to its pre-pregnancy form. It is more common among older people as with time the skin loses its elasticity making it more difficult to stay tight and firm. As the skin ages, the levels of collagen are naturally decreased, and this can lead to loose skin anywhere on the body.
Loose Skin On Waist Treatments At Hans Place Practice
There are cosmetic treatments that can help reduce the appearance of loose skin on the waist and leave the abdominal area looking tightened and toned. At Hans Place Practice, we advise anyone considering treatment to book in for a skincare assessment to determine a treatment plan.
Renuvion
Renuvion is an innovative treatment that tightens and tones loose skin and the surrounding tissue without the need for invasive surgery. It is particularly effective at treating loose skin on the waist as it can be targeted to specific areas of the body.
Exceptional precision is used to subdermally insert the Renuvion wand into the waist through a tiny incision. The wand works by applying a radiofrequency energy into the tissue. This contracts the area and encourages new collagen production which results in an instant firming effect. Whilst Renuvion results can be seen instantly, they will continue to improve for up to a year after treatment because of the effect on the skin’s collagen production.
