Looking good and feeling good go hand in hand. But if the healthy diet and lifestyle which help you lose weight are also giving you unsightly sagging skin, Astute Medical Aesthetics & Laser Clinic’s new treatment machine may help.
It takes determination and discipline to make changes to your diet and routine to lose weight. But shedding fat may mean that your overstretched skin loses its elasticity so it becomes wrinkled and loose. Even if you’re not intentionally losing weight, ageing and a sedentary lifestyle can result in sagging skin, cellulite, and loss of muscle tone. Dr S Reddy, medical director of Astute Medical Aesthetics & Laser Clinic, says: “Studies have shown that your dermis produces 1 per cent less collagen every year after you turn 20. This can cause collagen and elastic fibres to clump together, making it harder to avoid wrinkling and drooping skin.”
