The two main causes of skin laxity and sagging skin are aging as well as weight loss. Aging results in less collagen and elastin being produced which causes the skin to naturally lose structure and sag. Oftentimes patients who experience weight loss at a fast pace find themselves with extra skin by the end of the transformation. The reason for this is the skin requires time to adjust to the volume loss during weight loss if the transformation is on a large scale. Other outside factors that can attribute to skin laxity and sagging skin are genetics.
