Saggy Skin Treatments Available in Singapore
HIFU
HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is an FDA-approved skin tightening treatment that uses precise ultrasound energy to deeply penetrate skin layers. It stimulates new collagen and elastin, targeting sagging jowls, loose facial skin, and double chins for a natural lifting and firming effect. Typically requiring 1-2 initial sessions, its results can last 6-12 months, with maintenance recommended.
Profhilo
Profhilo is a bio-remodelling treatment designed to address skin laxity. This highly concentrated hyaluronic acid solution diffuses through skin layers, bio-stimulating four types of collagen, elastin, and adipocytes lost through ageing, which improves skin firmness and reduces laxity. An initial course usually involves 2 sessions, spaced one month apart, with effects lasting approximately 6-9 months; maintenance is advised.
BTX (Injectable Neurotoxins)
BTX treatment involves the precise application of neurotoxins to specific facial muscles. While known for visibly reducing wrinkles like frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet (eye area), it also contributes to sagging face treatment by subtly lifting areas like the brows or refining the lower facial contour, such as with jawline slimming, through muscle relaxation. Generally administered in single sessions, results typically last 3-6 months, requiring regular treatments for sustained effect.
Face Filler
Face Fillers, primarily hyaluronic acid-based, are expertly applied for facial contouring and augmentation, directly addressing volume loss contributing to sagging skin. By adding structural support and volume to sunken areas (e.g., temples, cheeks), they lift and restore youthful contours. Results are immediate, usually achieved in a single session, and effects can last 12-15 months, with maintenance applications recommended as needed.
Fotona 6D
Fotona 6D is a multi-dimensional skin tightening treatment that works both externally and internally to combat sagging. By utilising various laser modes, it targets different depths to stimulate comprehensive collagen remodelling and contraction, leading to improved facial lift and firmness. An initial course of 4-6 sessions, spaced 4 weeks apart, is generally recommended, with results lasting up to a year.
Rejuran
Rejuran is a polynucleotide-based treatment designed to rejuvenate skin at a cellular level. Applied strategically, it enhances the skin’s self-healing capabilities and collagen synthesis, improving elasticity and firmness. This notably reduces the appearance of laxity and contributes to a more lifted look. A course of 3-4 sessions, 3-4 weeks apart, is typically recommended, with results lasting 6-12 months.
Oligio Skin Tightening
Oligio Skin Tightening uses advanced radiofrequency (RF) technology to deliver heat into the skin’s deeper layers. This controlled thermal energy stimulates collagen and elastin fibres, causing immediate contraction and promoting new production for sustained tightening and lifting effects, making it a valuable sagging face treatment. Often, a single session yields visible results, which can last 6-12 months, with maintenance recommended.
Sylfirm X
Sylfirm X is a dual-wave Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling system. It targets the deeper skin layers to stimulate collagen and elastin production, reinforcing the skin’s structure and notably improving laxity and overall firmness. A course of 3-6 sessions, spaced 4 weeks apart, is typically advised, with progressive improvements lasting approximately 6-12 months or longer with maintenance.
WonderFace
WonderFace is a specialised non-invasive approach to sagging face treatment that combines advanced technologies to achieve a comprehensive lifting and contouring effect. It stimulates facial muscles and deep skin layers to restore firmness and reduce signs of laxity. The number of sessions varies per individual, but results are often progressive over a few weeks, especially after 6 sessions, with maintenance sessions prolonging the outcome.
9D Perfect V Facelift
The 9D Perfect V Facelift is a non-surgical skin tightening treatment designed to visibly lift and redefine facial contours, specifically targeting the lower face and jawline. It typically employs a combination of advanced technologies to tighten lax skin and promote a more sculpted V-shape. A series of treatments, often 3-6 sessions, is usually recommended, with results gradually improving and lasting several months.
Linerase
Linerase is a collagen-stimulating treatment that utilises a unique bioactive collagen powder. When applied to the skin, it encourages the body’s natural synthesis of new collagen, improving skin elasticity, tone, and firmness. This contributes to reducing the appearance of sagging and promoting a more youthful skin structure. A course of 3-4 sessions, 2 weeks apart, is often recommended, with results lasting up to 12 months.

Skin Tightening Treatment: Before & After
For many skin-tightening treatment options, visible improvements can be observed even after just one session. While significant aesthetic enhancements are achieved for our clients, due to MOH regulations, Become Aesthetics Clinic is unable to provide any “before & after” photographs. We encourage a personalised consultation to discuss potential outcomes.
What Causes Saggy Skin?
Many factors contribute to saggy skin. As you age, your body starts to experience changes as a whole; important elements that help give support to skin tissue are also lost with time.
Ageing
The main cause of saggy skin is ageing. This can happen from your early 20s on a cellular level and becomes more visible in your later years. The structural changes are mainly in your skin, muscle, fat, and bone.
Collagen Loss in Skin
We lose collagen and elastin in our skin as we age. They are the building blocks responsible for keeping the skin firm and supple. Elastin fibres are proteins that help the skin “bounce back” from stretching and making facial expressions, while collagen helps to form the skin’s structure.
Volume Loss in Face
As facial muscles lose elasticity and fat pads lose their volume, this results in less support for the overlying skin. Facial fats slowly shift into new pockets, typically located under the chin, around the jaw, and neckline.
Facial Bone Structure
Facial bone structure changes as it undergoes osteoporosis and loses shape and volume. Over time, this essential structural support is unable to hold up the overlying facial muscles, fat pads, and skin.
Lifestyle
Although ageing is inevitable, your skin can largely be deteriorated by external factors over time. Certain lifestyle factors such as poor nutrition, over-consumption of alcohol, or lack of exercise can speed up the process of skin ageing. All these can make your skin appear saggy and wrinkled at a young age.
Sun Exposure
Sun damage caused by UVA/UVB radiation can degrade your skin’s DNA, leading to premature cellular death and impairing the skin’s repair ability. It also breaks down the collagen and elastin in the skin.
Smoking
Like sun exposure, smoking can lead to premature ageing. The chemicals in cigarettes can produce free radicals to damage skin cells and affect the production of collagen and elastin in your skin.
Stress
Continued stress can have adverse impacts on your skin as it increases cortisol levels, which can accelerate the loss of collagen and elastin. This reduces skin elasticity and leads to premature wrinkling and sagging of the skin.
Tips to Keep Your Skin Firm After Sagging Skin Treatments
Stay Hydrated
Maintaining optimal hydration is crucial for supporting skin elasticity and firmness post-treatment. Ensure consistent water intake throughout the day to nourish your skin cells from within. This helps preserve the supple and youthful appearance achieved through skin tightening treatment.
Sun (UV) Protection
Given Singapore’s year-round high UV exposure, diligent sun protection is necessary. Consistently apply broad-spectrum sunscreen with high SPF, wear protective clothing, and seek shade. Minimising sun damage prevents collagen breakdown and helps to maintain the results of your sagging face treatment, reducing the risk of new laxity.
Healthy Diet
A balanced diet rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and healthy fats significantly supports skin health and firmness. Include plenty of fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins to aid collagen production and protect against cellular damage. Good nutrition complements your aesthetic treatments by promoting internal skin resilience.
Healthy Lifestyle
Regular exercise boosts circulation, which is vital for skin health and rejuvenation. Additionally, finding effective ways to reduce stress, such as mindfulness or adequate sleep, can minimise cortisol’s impact on collagen breakdown. A holistic healthy lifestyle actively supports the longevity of your skin tightening treatment results.
