ここからは、たるみの具体的な原因とおすすめの治療について3つ解説します。
Cause of Sagging 1: Loss of Skin Firmness and Elasticity

One of the causes of sagging is,The amount of collagen in the skin decreases with ageです。コラーゲンが破壊されると肌のハリや弾力が失われ、たるみが生じます。そのため、ヤヨイクリニックでは、肌状態に合わせた定期的な肌管理や、肌育注射でハリや弾力を維持していくことをおすすめしています。
Cause of Sagging #2: Age-Related Decrease in Bone Mass and Fat, and Sagging

Bones and fat are,As we age, atrophy and lossしていきます。そのため、皮膚や脂肪が重力で垂れ下がり、たるみや頬のへこみが生じます。ヤヨイクリニックでは、へこみには医師によるバランスや負担を軽減した「ヒアルロン酸注入」をおすすめしています。また、下垂した脂肪には、高周波治療の「サーマジェン」や「ボルニューマ」で痛みを軽減させながらリフトアップ効果を目指す治療が可能です。
Cause of Sagging #3: Weakening of the Supporting Ligaments and SMAS

The third cause of sagging is,Weakening of the supporting ligaments and SMAS. The SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) refers to the connective tissue that connects the facial skin and muscles to the underlying bone. The SMAS is the fascia that lies between the fat and muscle layers, alongside the supporting ligaments. These are,Due to the effects of aging and gravity, the skin stretches and becomes less elastic, causing fat to shift out of balance and sag, which leads to sagging.となります。そのため、ヤヨイクリニックではハイフ治療でSMASに直接アプローチし、肌を土台から引き締めることをおすすめしています。
