Restore Firmness, Support Collagen, and Age with Confidence
One of the most common concerns we see at Cyr Aesthetics is skin laxity and collagen loss. As we age, our body's natural collagen production gradually declines. This process often begins as early as our mid-20s and accelerates over time, contributing to skin laxity, fine lines, loss of firmness, and changes in facial structure and support. The result? Skin may begin to feel thinner, less elastic, and less resilient than it once did.
We take a comprehensive approach to treating skin laxity by focusing on what is happening beneath the surface. Through a combination of collagen-stimulating treatments, advanced skin rejuvenation technologies, and personalized treatment plans, we help restore support, improve skin quality, and promote healthier, firmer-looking skin.
What Causes Skin Laxity?
Skin laxity occurs when the skin loses its ability to remain firm and elastic.
Common contributing factors include:
-
Natural aging
-
Collagen and elastin depletion
-
Sun exposure and UV damage
-
Genetics
-
Hormonal changes
-
Weight fluctuations
-
Lifestyle factors
Signs of collagen loss and skin laxity may include:
-
Sagging skin
-
Loss of facial definition
-
Fine lines and wrinkles
-
Crepey skin texture
-
Hollowing or volume loss
-
Reduced skin firmness and elasticity
Our Approach to Treating Skin Laxity
Because skin laxity develops for different reasons, treatment is never one-size-fits-all. Your personalized treatment plan may include one or a combination of the following evidence-based treatments:
Dermal Fillers
Strategically placed dermal fillers can restore lost volume and support areas that have begun to lose structural integrity over time. By restoring facial balance and support, fillers can create a refreshed appearance while maintaining natural-looking results.
Volume loss | Facial contouring | Mid-face support | Jawline definition
Biostimulators
Biostimulators work by encouraging your body to produce its own collagen over time. Rather than simply replacing volume, these treatments help improve skin quality, firmness, and overall structural support through natural collagen regeneration.
Collagen depletion | Skin laxity | Crepey skin | Long-term skin rejuvenation
Fractional Skin Resurfacing
Fractional laser resurfacing stimulates significant collagen remodelling while improving skin texture, firmness, and visible signs of aging. This treatment targets both the surface and deeper layers of the skin to support long-term rejuvenation.
Moderate skin laxity | Fine lines and wrinkles | Sun damage | Skin texture concerns
The Earlier You Support Collagen, The Better
One of the biggest misconceptions about skin laxity is that treatment should begin only once sagging becomes noticeable. The reality is that collagen loss begins years before visible signs appear. By supporting collagen production early, we can often help slow the aging process, improve skin quality, and maintain firmness for longer.
Whether you're noticing the first signs of aging or looking for solutions for more advanced skin laxity, our team will create a personalized treatment plan designed around your goals and stage of aging.
