Why Skin Becomes Loose
Part of the aging process is the loss of skin elasticity, and that causes loose skin. As people get older, their bodies make less elastin. That is the elastic tissue that allows the skin to stretch and bounce back into place. As that element decreases, the skin begins to hang loosely.
At the same time, collagen levels also decrease as your body gets older. Collagen is a protein found in your skin, muscles, and various other parts of your body. It strengthens your skin and promotes elasticity. As you lose this element, your skin also starts to sag and wrinkle.
This effect can be exacerbated by several issues including weight gain, weight loss, and pregnancy. Some people also experience loose skin after having certain plastic surgeries, and others have reduced levels of collagen due to smoking, sun exposure, or other environmental or lifestyle factors. Luckily, regardless of why your skin is sagging, there are all kinds of options to help with this issue.
