Straffere Haut – die besten Tipps

But help is on the way: because with the right tactics, you can support your skin's regeneration!

In this article, you'll find out what causes sagging skin, why women are often affected, and what approaches can support you and your skin!

Sagging Skin and its Causes

Skin ages – year after year, the production of elastin and collagen, which play a crucial role as building blocks of the dermis, decreases. This degradation process begins as early as 25 years of age.

As a result, connective tissue sags as the fibers lose their elasticity. First wrinkles and dimples become visible. By the age of 60, the body produces approximately 60 percent less collagen than in youth.

To support the body's own collagen production, many patients opt for Profhilo, Polynucleotides (Salmon DNA) or a Vampire Lifting with PRP.

But what causes sagging skin?

Besides the natural aging process, you expose your skin to UV radiation and other environmental influences.

Hormonal fluctuations, genetics, an unhealthy diet, or lack of exercise can also lead to tissue dimpling. Furthermore, circulatory disorders and water retention, edema, can contribute to an unsightly skin condition.

But don't worry! You can directly influence many factors. For example, a balanced diet can increase the elasticity of your connective tissue.

You can promote blood circulation through regular exercise. However, you should avoid ineffective crash diets with a yo-yo effect.

And most importantly: Treat your skin like a good friend at MY HEALTH AND BEAUTY!

With an intensive and regular skincare routine, you slow down the natural aging process of the largest human organ.

Women Have More Problems Than Men

Do you want to improve your skin's appearance?

You're not alone with this wish. Women suffer from sagging skin more often than men.

The reason: The skin of men and women shows subtle differences in its composition.

Women have a thicker layer of fat. Body parts such as the thighs are particularly affected. Despite a balanced diet and regular exercise, some fat deposits remain particularly stubborn.

The upper arms and thighs are frequently affected. For such localized fat deposits, a fat-dissolving injection for the upper arms or a fat-dissolving injection for the thighs can be an interesting treatment option.

Men, on the other hand, have a thinner fat layer. If they gain weight, it usually shows first in the midsection.

Despite a healthy diet and regular exercise, belly fat often remains particularly stubborn. The Lemon Bottle treatment for the abdomen was specifically developed to target localized fat deposits.

Another difference lies in the arrangement of tissue fibers. Men's skin shows a crisscross pattern, while women's skin runs vertically.

As a result, women's skin is more elastic. This facilitates childbirth, during which the skin stretches.

The more frequently the fibers stretch, the more dimples appear. At the same time, collagen breaks down between the connective tissue fibers and stores less fluid. Genetics is another factor. For example, loose connective tissue can be inherited.

The Right Nutrition

A balanced, comprehensive diet ensures that you supply your body with all the necessary macro- and micronutrients. Without essential nutrients, the body cannot maintain vital functions such as breathing. Furthermore, you support your immune system.

However, before malnutrition leads to functional impairment, your performance level initially drops.

A healthy diet and regular exercise form the basis for a firm body contour. For stubborn fat deposits, a fat-dissolving injection may also be considered.

Because the body switches into emergency mode and uses energy exclusively for life-sustaining measures. At the same time, your skin loses elasticity.

But what characterizes a health-promoting diet?

  • Whole grain products
  • Vegetables
  • Meat
  • Fish
  • Vegetable oils like rapeseed oil, olive oil, and linseed oil
  • Nuts
  • Fruit
  • Water
  • Unsweetened teas

Foods with sugar and white flour, on the other hand, can negatively affect skin condition. You should also avoid excessive alcohol consumption and nicotine.

Good Foods

Your connective tissue particularly benefits from vitamins like Vitamin C and Vitamin B3, proteins, and sufficient water. Vitamin C enables cell regeneration and is involved in the formation of collagen fibers.

A tip: A bell pepper contains more Vitamin C than a lemon. If you focus on the right foods, you can provide your body with valuable Vitamin C, for example, through a vegetable stir-fry made from bell peppers, kale, Brussels sprouts, and spinach.

Those who want to additionally supply their body with high-dose Vitamin C are often interested in a Vitamin C Infusion.

Vitamin B3 is found in whole grain products, peanuts, potatoes, and mung beans. This substance helps your body optimally utilize the building blocks of proteins.

Especially during phases of high physical or mental stress, a Vitamin B Infusion is often used to support overall well-being.

The amino acid Lysine plays a special role. You consume this through peas, walnuts, tofu, and whole grain products.

Special attention should also be paid to your individual water consumption.

If you leave the soft drink aside and reach for a bottle of water instead, you protect your body from dehydration and save yourself empty calories.

Furthermore, water ensures that the connective tissue fibers remain elastic. According to the recommendation of the German Nutrition Society, you should drink at least 1.5 liters of water per day. Physically active individuals, however, should consume more water.

Regular Exercise

Exercise stimulates blood circulation. This way, the body can optimally transport nutrients to the cells.

Furthermore, exercise sessions create an increased energy demand. This means you consume energy beyond your basal metabolic rate. Your body thus burns calories, and fat cells shrink.

A Mix of Cardio and Strength Training

You can promote blood circulation, for example, through jogging or cycling. Muscles also benefit from Pilates and yoga, as well as strength training.

Pilates is designed to strengthen the core. Ideally, you integrate both cardio sessions and strength training sessions into your daily routine.

Skincare

Does your face look pale, your stomach have dimples, and do you avoid showing your legs in a summer dress in summer? Nourishing creams with an anti-aging effect or an Anti-Aging Infusion can help!

For your face, you use special eye and face creams with vitamins and minerals, as well as active ingredients that delay skin aging.

Skinboosters are also frequently used to intensively moisturize the skin and improve skin quality long-term.

Remember: Remove your makeup every evening. Because the components of your makeup can clog your pores.

Mild cleansing lotions and a facial toner that meets your individual needs are recommended.

Apply the cream to your cleansed face. This way, the product can unleash its full effect and penetrate the outermost layer of skin.

It is important that you also adequately care for your neck and décolletage. This prevents wrinkle formation. With increasing age, the décolletage also loses moisture, elasticity, and volume.

A décolletage treatment with Hyaluron can help visibly revitalize the skin in this area.

For already visible expression lines, treatments such as Botox for forehead wrinkles, frown lines or crow's feet can be beneficial.

For your body, you use firming body lotions or nourishing oils. While applying the skincare products, gently massage your skin.

The effect: Through movement, you promote blood circulation and strengthen your connective tissue.

But which products are suitable for women with sagging skin?

Experts advise using pH-neutral products. Furthermore, the moisturizing properties of a high-quality almond oil can prove advantageous.

In the morning, opt for a lipid-rich facial care cream. It is important that the product has UV protection. In the evening, pamper your facial skin with a regenerating night cream.

Aloe vera can also help you delay wrinkle formation. Apply the gel to your face or body and let it act for 20 minutes.

Afterwards, remove any excess with a cosmetic wipe. A body lotion with ginger extract promotes blood circulation, while pure coconut oil moisturizes the skin.

Another option is to brush the skin. Brush massage is considered an effective application for preventing dimples.

Proceed as follows:

  • Take a hot shower.
  • Massage the affected body part with a massage brush or a massage glove. Use circular movements.
  • Switch to cold water
  • First shower your right foot and then slowly move the shower head upwards. It is important that you initially only treat the right side of your body.
  • Now treat the heart-facing, left side of your body with the cold water jet.
  • Dry your skin.
  • Apply a skincare product.

Massages – Stimulating Blood Circulation

With the right tips and tricks, you can stimulate your skin's blood circulation.

Regular massage applications can activate fibroblasts and promote mitochondrial production. Mitochondria are involved in cell metabolism.

For the massage, use an anti-aging skincare product. Apply it to the affected area and massage the cream in with a handheld massager.

After physical or mental stress, many people opt for a Regeneration Infusion to specifically support their body in recovery and regeneration.

Alternatively, you can book a professional treatment and have the massage performed by an expert.

The Secrets of Beautiful Skin

Regular walks in the fresh air and massages promote blood circulation and support metabolic processes.

The good news: The tricks for promoting blood circulation can be wonderfully integrated into everyday life.

For example, you can swap the elevator at your workplace for the stairs, cycle to work, or meet friends for a short hike through the forest.

A healthy diet provides you with all the important nutrients.

Additionally, ideal drinking habits can affect skin condition.

In the morning and evening, you also use firming skincare products and treat yourself to a professional treatment with our experienced doctors.

The side effect: Creams provide a great glow and a smooth texture.
