Facial Volume Loss

As we age, it is common to identify what is contributing to the change in our features. While facial volume loss can sometimes be easily recognizable, it can also be a subtle contributor to the aging appearance of the face. If you feel that your face looks older or more tired but you are unsure why, you may be experiencing facial volume loss.

What Causes Facial Volume Loss?

Skin laxity is an inevitable part of aging, and everyone will eventually experience its effects. This is due to the natural breakdown of the proteins collagen and elastin in our skin. These proteins are key components of our skin’s firmness and structure, and they give our skin the ability to bounce back into place after it has been stretched.As we age, collagen and elastin start to break down more quickly, but they are not actively replaced by the body. Over time, our skin loses its resiliency and becomes more vulnerable to gravity and stretching.

As we get older, this is noticed most in areas such as the undereyes, nasolabial folds, jowls and neck.
While aging is unavoidable, there are other external factors that can influence the firmness of our skin and contribute to premature skin aging, including:

  • Sun damage
  • Diet
  • Weight fluctuations
  • Pregnancy
  • Lifestyle (excessive smoking or drinking)
  • Stress
