The days when a surgical facelift was the default answer to sagging skin are gone. Non surgical options have exploded in popularity among patients who want real change without long recovery or a pulled look.

Middle aged adults between 35 and 54 currently make up the largest share of non surgical tightening patients, and younger patients are starting earlier with preventive treatments that protect collagen before laxity becomes severe.

At Skin Select we see the best results from combination plans that support the deeper structure of the face, improve skin quality, and gently lift without changing what makes you look like yourself.

Sculptra is a biostimulatory injectable that works from the inside out. Instead of simply filling space, it uses poly L lactic acid particles to stimulate your body to make new collagen over time.

We use Sculptra in areas where structural support has been lost such as the midface, jawline, temples, and lower cheeks. By thickening and strengthening the deeper layers of the skin, Sculptra can gently lift sagging tissue and soften folds.

Most plans include two to three sessions spaced several weeks apart. Improvements build gradually over three to six months and can last up to two years, making Sculptra one of the longest lasting options for sagging skin.

Potenza radiofrequency microneedling pairs ultra fine needles with radiofrequency energy to remodel skin at multiple depths in a single treatment.

The needles create controlled micro channels while RF energy heats the deeper dermis. This combination triggers collagen and elastin production, tightens laxity, and improves texture and pore size at the same time.

Potenza is ideal for mild to moderate sagging along the jawline, cheeks, and neck, especially in patients who also want smoother texture and fewer fine lines. Most people do a series of three treatments spaced four to six weeks apart, with only a few days of social downtime after each visit.

Dermal fillers have moved far beyond simply filling lines. When placed with anatomic precision, they can restore the facial scaffolding that supports youthful contours.

Rather than chasing every wrinkle, our injectors focus on key support points such as the lateral cheeks, midface, chin, and jawline. By rebuilding volume where it has melted away, we can create a gentle lift that reduces the appearance of sagging skin.

Fillers offer immediate results with little downtime and typically last 12 to 18 months, depending on the product and area. They work especially well when paired with collagen stimulators or RF treatments for longer term support.

Exosome therapy brings regenerative medicine into aesthetics. Exosomes are tiny messenger vesicles rich in growth factors and proteins that encourage repair and renewal at the cellular level.

When applied after microneedling or injected into areas of laxity, exosomes can enhance collagen production, calm inflammation, and improve overall skin quality. Patients often describe their skin as more resilient, firmer, and more luminous in the weeks after treatment.

We often use exosomes as an amplifier for treatments like Potenza or Sculptra since they support faster recovery and more robust collagen response.

Renuva is an adipose matrix injectable that encourages your body to grow new fat where it has been lost. Instead of using synthetic filler, Renuva provides a scaffold that your own cells repopulate over time.

By restoring natural volume in areas like the cheeks, temples, jawline, or small contour depressions, Renuva improves support under the skin so laxity is less apparent. Once fully integrated, the new volume is made of your own living tissue for very natural look and feel.

Results build gradually over several months and can be long lasting, making Renuva an attractive option for patients who want regenerative solutions with low maintenance.

The right approach depends on how advanced your sagging is, your skin quality, how quickly you want to see results, and how much downtime fits your life.

Mild laxity often responds well to RF microneedling, exosomes, or a light filler lift. Moderate sagging usually benefits from a combination of Sculptra for deep support, fillers for contour, and Potenza or exosomes for skin quality. When laxity is more significant, we may coordinate with surgical partners for facelift or neck lift while still using collagen stimulators and regenerative treatments to refine results.

During your consultation we map your facial anatomy, evaluate collagen and fat loss, review your medical history, and build a step by step plan that fits your budget and goals. Many patients spread treatments over several months so change feels gradual but meaningful.

Sagging skin is a natural part of aging, but the way we treat it has changed completely. Instead of pulling skin tight, modern aesthetics focuses on rebuilding structure, stimulating collagen, and improving skin quality so you look refreshed rather than altered.

With tools like Sculptra, Potenza RF microneedling, dermal fillers, exosomes, and Renuva, we can customize a plan that respects your features and your lifestyle. At Skin Select, every treatment is guided by science, artistry, and a commitment to subtle, believable results.

If you are starting to notice sagging skin along your cheeks, jawline, or neck, a thoughtful plan now can help you age confidently over the next decade and beyond.
