    Firmness & Loose Skin

    Firmness & Loose Skin

    Skin that looks looser or saggy, like at the jawline.

    Why it happens

    Why skin gets loose

    Skin has tiny fibres: some hold it up, some let it spring back.

    With age and sun, these fibres weaken, like an old elastic band.

    So skin stretches more and bounces back less.
