Skin Concerns
Ageing Skin &
Skin Laxity
Look fresher. Feel firmer. Still look like you.
What Happens to Skin as We Age?
Ageing skin rarely changes in just one way.
You may notice your jawline feels less defined, the skin around your eyes looks more crepey, pigmentation has become more visible or your complexion simply looks more tired than it used to. For many clients, the goal is not to look younger or different. It is to look fresher, healthier and more like themselves.
These changes often happen together. Over time, skin can lose hydration, firmness and resilience. Collagen and structural support reduce, sun damage accumulates, texture becomes less even and fine lines become more established. In some areas, laxity becomes more noticeable.
The important question is not your age. It is what is actually changing in your skin, and which of those changes is creating the concern you see in the mirror.
Skin Laxity or Volume Loss. What’s the Difference?
They can look similar, but they are not the same. Skin laxity relates to the quality and support of the skin and underlying tissue. Volume loss relates to changes in the deeper facial structure and soft tissue. And more advanced tissue descent is different again.
This distinction matters because adding filler to lax skin does not automatically solve laxity, just as tightening treatment cannot recreate genuinely missing volume. At LovesSkin, we assess skin quality, laxity, structure and volume separately.
A changing jawline can result from several factors: skin laxity; changes in facial volume; fat distribution; underlying facial anatomy; and progressive tissue descent.
Morpheus8 may help where skin quality and mild-to-moderate laxity are important contributors. It cannot reproduce surgical tissue repositioning, and deeper treatment is not automatically better.
Treatment Options
There is no single best treatment because different technologies do different jobs.
Fine Lines & Photoageing
NeoGen Plasma
May be particularly relevant where the priorities are regenerative resurfacing, fine lines, crepey texture and broader photoageing.
Texture & Skin Laxity
Morpheus8
May be more appropriate where structural dermal remodelling, uneven texture or mild-to-moderate laxity are greater priorities.
Dehydration & Resilience
Profhilo
May be considered where age-related skin-quality changes occur alongside dehydration and reduced resilience.
The LovesSkin Age-Well Approach
Ageing well is not about treating a number. It is about understanding what has changed, what is creating the concern and what will genuinely make a difference.
We look at where the change is happening, how much correction you want, how much recovery you are comfortable with and, just as importantly, what does not need treating.
For many clients, the goal is simple: healthier-looking, clearer, firmer, better-supported skin without changing the proportions or character of their face.
Your plan may focus on one treatment or a carefully staged combination, depending on what your skin actually needs. That could mean improving texture and skin renewal, supporting firmness, correcting sun damage, restoring hydration or strengthening overall skin quality.
The aim is not to make you look different. It is to help you look fresher, more rested and recognisably you.

Common Questions About Ageing Skin
Is NeoGen or Morpheus8 better for ageing skin?
It depends on what has changed in your skin. NeoGen may be particularly useful where fine lines, crepiness, sun damage and overall skin quality are the main concerns. Morpheus8 may be more appropriate where texture, reduced firmness and deeper skin remodelling are the priority. For some clients, the best plan may involve one treatment, a different treatment altogether, or a combination over time.
Can non-surgical treatment replace a facelift?
For some people, yes. If the main concerns are skin quality, fine lines, crepiness or mild to moderate laxity, non-surgical treatments can create meaningful improvement without surgery. They cannot produce the same degree of lifting or repositioning as a surgical facelift where there is more significant tissue descent or excess skin.
When should I start treating ageing skin?
There is no right age to start. Some people want to maintain good skin quality before changes become more noticeable, while others seek treatment once concerns such as pigmentation, fine lines, texture or laxity begin to bother them. The right time is when there is something you would genuinely like to improve and a treatment that is appropriate for it.
