This causes the skin envelope to thin and gradually loosen, leading to visible overall facial sagging. At Advanced Dermatology, our expert dermatologists help patients throughout the Chicagoland area restore firmer, lifted skin using advanced, non-surgical <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.advdermatology.com\/cosmetic-procedures\/skin-tightening\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">skin tightening treatments<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> tailored to their needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re looking for a dermatologist for overall facial sagging near you, our Glencoe and Lincolnshire offices offer unmatched expertise and leading-edge technology to help you achieve natural, refreshed results.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why Does Facial Sagging Happen?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facial sagging occurs as collagen and elastin production slow with age. These essential proteins keep skin firm, resilient, and youthful. Sun exposure accelerates their breakdown, while lifestyle factors\u2014including genetics, weight fluctuation, and environmental stress\u2014can contribute to laxity earlier in life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maintaining skin quality is key. Sunscreen and antioxidants like Vitamin C support collagen synthesis, helping preserve firmness. Once sagging becomes more pronounced, non-surgical tightening treatments offer an effective pathway to restoring lift.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Overall Facial Sagging Treatments at Advanced Dermatology<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Advanced Dermatology provides state-of-the-art overall facial sagging treatments that safely and effectively stimulate collagen, rebuild structural support, and tighten lax skin.

Emface\u00ae uses synchronized radiofrequency (RF), which heats the dermis to stimulate collagen and elastin, and HIFES (High-Intensity Focused Electrical Stimulation) which creates intense and fast contractions of facial muscles to improve tone and lift.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This treatment can be used on the entire face and results in fewer wrinkles and a more natural lift of the skin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emface\u00ae is ideal for:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Patients looking for treatment without needles\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Patients looking for improvement of sagging in the brow, cheeks or jowls<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Patients looking for quick treatment times and no downtime<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sofwave\u2122 Facial Treatment<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.advdermatology.com\/cosmetic-procedures\/non-surgical-facelift\/sofwave\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sofwave\u2122<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is another treatment used to improve facial sagging. It works by using Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam (SUPERB) Technology to deliver controlled ultrasound energy to the layer of skin where collagen and elastin are produced. This stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin, leading to a smoother and firmer appearance of the skin.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sofwave\u2122 can be used on all skin types and is a non-invasive, fast treatment usually lasting between 20 and 60 minutes.
