What are the best treatments for sagging skin?
Slowing the effects of ageing is the Holy Grail for many people. Staying youthful never goes out of fashion. We want to be fabulous at every age. For those with sagging skin, this is all about how to help skin look firmer and more lifted.
If you have tried anti-ageing skincare without seeing the results you hoped for, it may simply not have been the right match for your skin.
Which anti-ageing skincare suits me?
We all age differently. Some of us are more prevalent to lines while others will be more prone to sagging. To choose the right skincare, we first need to know what we are caring for. For instance, you wouldn't use a range for oily, blemish-prone skin on dry skin, would you? Many of us don't know how to identify which age category our concerns fall into. To help us, let's look at the following not-so-technical terms.
Melters and Crinklers paints a clear picture, doesn't it? We'll chat about crinklers another time, so let's just stick to melters for today. As a melter, you get comments about your lack of wrinkles which is nice.
Although you have fewer lines to show around your eyes, you may have a droopy hooded eye, your jawline may not be as sculptured as it used to be, the fullness in your cheeks is not as pronounced and your smile lines (that's what I call them) are more pronounced.
Melter test
- ponytail test: do you love the look when you hold your hairline back and you get an instant lift?
- Eyebrow test: are your eyebrows and lashes getting closer? Or do you pop your finger under your lid and think it didn't do that before? Hooded eyes lookout!
- No smile test: do you pull back the skin from jawline/ear and love the definition you see on your jaw and notice your smile lines disappear?
If you answered yes to these, you, my friend, are a melter like me. melters sag, crinklers have lines, and we each have vastly different skincare needs, therefore your regular "anti-ageing cream" will not deliver the results you wish for. Anti-ageing is not, one size fits all.
What's the Solution? This is the technical stuff and where the magic happens
Our Timexpert Lift formulas are designed to help skin look firmer and more lifted. They contain V-Matrix, a complex of ingredients chosen to help skin feel more supple and look firmer, with smoother, more defined-looking facial contours.
Firming care for a lifted look
For a more lifted look, choose a serum made for firmness. Anti-ageing serums are great, but we want to focus on firmness with Vector Lift Serum, our firming serum. Our clients love its light, fresh texture. It is formulated to help skin look more lifted, and it also helps improve the appearance of pores. Nice to know? Vector Lift Serum comes in a large 50ml bottle which is a great added value compared to the usual 30ml serum size. Follow with Supreme Definition Cream, which melts into the skin and leaves a fine, comfortable film, helping skin texture look smoother straight away.
Targeting eye and neck sagging
The skin of the eye and neck is commonly known as being more fragile and vulnerable, the first signs of ageing are often shown in both these areas, and both eyes and neck benefit from dedicated care. Timexpert Lift Neck Cream combines V-Matrix and Edelweiss Flower to help the skin on the neck look tauter and firmer. It's a good choice for anyone over 35 who wants a firmer, more lifted look around the neck and jawline.
Lastly, for an eye area that needs a little extra support, Supreme Definition Eye Cream is made with hooded eyes in mind. It contains Blefaroplex, chosen to help the eye area look firmer, more lifted and more defined, and to soften the look of crow's feet and fine lines. The massage applicator helps the eye area look more open and refreshed straight after use. If you are a Melter or a Crinkler and want to get the right advice on what's best for your skin, book in with a Skin Therapist for a bespoke skin consultation based on your needs.
