Understanding
What is skin laxity?
Skin firmness and laxity are among the most frequent requests in the salon. Laxity can affect different areas such as the stomach, arms, thighs, buttocks or inner knees, and can show up in several ways.
01
Lack of tone
The skin looks less dense and less bouncy: it loses hold without marked sagging, often on the arms, stomach or inner thighs.
02
Skin laxity
The skin loses elasticity and firmness: it marks more easily, creases more readily and its overall appearance becomes less smooth.
03
Laxity after weight changes
After weight loss or pregnancy, the skin has not always regained its hold: some areas remain looser.
That is why a single approach is not always enough. Some clients will mainly need work on skin quality, others support for firmness, tissue stimulation or a more global protocol.
The causes
Why does skin lose firmness?
Skin laxity can be linked to several factors, which often add up: skin ageing, collagen loss, weight changes, pregnancy, lack of tone or lifestyle.
01
Skin ageing
Over time, collagen and elastin production decreases: the supporting fibres slacken and the skin loses density.
02
Weight changes
Repeated weight gain and loss stretch the skin, which does not always have time to regain its hold.
03
Pregnancy
During and after pregnancy, the skin of the stomach and hips is under great strain and may remain less toned.
04
Lifestyle
A sedentary lifestyle, lack of physical activity, an unbalanced diet, stress and lack of sleep accentuate the lack of tone.
