Lifting & Firming
If your skin is starting to feel less firm or your facial contours appear less defined, targeted skin-tightening treatments may help improve firmness and create a more lifted appearance.
Common Concerns


What Is Skin Laxity?
Skin laxity means reduced firmness or elasticity. It can make the cheeks, jawline or neck appear less defined; it is not the same as excess fat or loss of facial volume.
What Causes It?
Natural ageing and cumulative sun exposure affect the support and elasticity of skin. Weight changes and individual facial structure can also influence its appearance.
Common Types & Patterns
- Mild surface laxity or crepey-looking skin
- Lower-face and jawline laxity
- Neck laxity
- Mixed concerns involving skin and underlying tissues
How to Treat Skin Laxity
Assessment helps distinguish loose skin from other contour concerns. Device-based options may be discussed for suitable clients, but significant laxity may need medical or surgical advice. Results vary. You can explore Ultherapy and Ultraformer MPT before discussing suitability at a personalised consultation. Our comparison of Ultherapy, HIFU and Ultraformer MPT explains questions to consider when comparing these options.
Treatment suitability and availability are confirmed during consultation. Individual results vary.
