If you’ve noticed that your skin isn’t quite as firm or bouncy as it used to be, you’re not alone. Skin laxity—also known as sagging or loose skin—is a natural part of aging, but that doesn’t mean you have to live with it. At Paradise Medical in Wailuku, Hawaii, we specialize in evidence-based, non-invasive treatments to help restore their skin’s natural firmness—without surgery or downtime.
Whether you’re spending your days in the sun, enjoying the beach, or raising a family here on sunny Maui, your skin tells a story. Let’s talk about what causes skin laxity, who it affects, and how our advanced tools—like the T-Shape 2—can help you look as vibrant as you feel.
What Is Skin Laxity?
Skin laxity refers to the loss of skin firmness and elasticity, often seen around the jawline, cheeks, neck, arms, or stomach. As we age, our skin starts to sag, lose its structure, and develop fine lines or a “crepey” texture.
Why Does Skin Laxity Happen?
Here in Hawaii, our sunny lifestyle is beautiful—but the sun is also one of the biggest contributors to skin aging. Combine that with natural aging and other lifestyle factors, and it’s no wonder many Maui locals start noticing looser skin in their 30s, 40s, and beyond.
Common Causes Include:
? Sun exposure – UV rays break down collagen and elastin faster, especially in sunny places like Maui.
? Aging – Collagen and elastin production slows down over time (about 1% per year after age 20).
? Weight changes or pregnancy – Common in post-partum women or those who’ve lost weight.
? Smoking and poor lifestyle habits – These accelerate skin aging and reduce natural regeneration.
? Genetics – Some people are predisposed to looser skin earlier than others.
Who Is Most Affected?
Skin laxity can affect anyone, but it’s most common in:
- Women and men over 35
- Postpartum moms
- People who’ve experienced significant weight loss
- Sun lovers and outdoor enthusiasts
- Anyone with mature or naturally thin skin
