Habits to avoid sagging
Many women experience problems related to sagging, which ends up directly affecting their self-esteem. However, with simple actions it is possible to prevent it.
Body sagging occurs when the skin loses its natural elasticity and appears “loose”. It can appear on different parts of the body such as the belly, thighs, arms, butt, neck, among others.
Aspects such as pregnancy, poor diet, being overweight and a sedentary lifestyle can result in sagging skin. Therefore, it is necessary to be careful with these habits so that the situation does not worsen.
Some of the main tips for combating sagging include increasing your consumption of foods rich in protein and collagen, practicing physical activity, drinking plenty of water throughout the day, keeping your weight stable and not smoking. In this way, it is possible to promote muscle development, which guarantees more firmness to the skin, consequently determining sagging.
In addition to adopting as mentioned above, to combat sagging, it may also be interesting to carry out some aesthetic procedures, such as Sculptra, Ultraformer III or Radiesse, for example, in addition to PDO Threads, which are also capable of bringing good results .
Now, let’s find out how each of these strategies can contribute to combating sagging?

Have a healthy eating
As I mentioned at the beginning of this article, having a healthy diet is the first step to achieving firm, sagging-free skin. It is necessary to keep an eye on all the foods that are consumed daily. Preferably, avoid fried foods, sweets, pasta, soft drinks, excess salt and all other unhealthy foods that will hinder your desire to maintain a beautiful body.
The ideal is to focus on a diet rich in vitamins C, E and A, fiber, proteins and natural nutrients. Foods such as kiwi, orange and strawberry (rich in vitamin C), olive oil, sunflower seeds and walnuts (vitamin E) and spinach and carrots (vitamin A) help with this task.
Practice physical activities
In addition to a healthy diet, physical activity is also essential for weight control as well as muscle strengthening.
Here it is worth highlighting that it does not necessarily have to be bodybuilding. Other aerobic activities such as running, walking, group activities and exercise bring excellent results and are quite popular in gyms.
Drink a lot of water
Your skin’s hydration (or lack thereof) is directly linked to sagging. This is because skin that is poorly hydrated loses its elasticity and suffers from these signs.
Therefore, always have a bottle of water nearby and drink plenty of fluids. Making a habit of hydrating yourself all the time, especially when you are on a weight loss diet, will help maintain beautiful, firm and elastic skin.
Sleep well
You probably already know an expression: “Beauty sleep”, right? Well, know that this is not a myth. Sleeping little or badly can cause a lot of damage to your health and appearance. This is because during sleep a process of cleaning the brain takes place, which promotes the removal of toxic substances that have accumulated throughout the day.
Adequate sleep develops the production of collagen, a substance that is essential for healthy and beautiful skin, in addition to causing hormonal imbalance, increasing the formation of free radicals, which favors the appearance of dark circles, weight gain and dry skin.
Sculptra
Some aesthetic procedures, such as sculptra, are excellent for those looking to combat sagging.
Sculptra is a collagen biostimulator whose main objective is to recover and restore facial volume that was lost due to the natural aging process.
It contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible synthetic substance that helps in the production of collagen. Sculptra can offer long-lasting and very natural results that can last up to two years.
It can be used to treat furrows, deep lines and wrinkles, promoting a more youthful appearance.
PDO Wires
For those who want to give their face a “lift”, an excellent alternative is the application of PDO threads, which are threads with small claws that generate an effect similar to lifting. PDO threads stimulate the body to produce more collagen and are absorbable by the body. In other words, over time they are naturally absorbed by the body and promote a reduced improvement in skin firmness.
The smooth PDO threads can be applied to different parts of the face, such as the lower eyelids (just below the eyes), the barcode region (wrinkles above the lips), the neck and other areas that show wrinkles. Recovery is very smooth and the procedure is practically painless.
Ultraformer
Ultraformer is a procedure that has managed to revolutionize the treatment of sagging of the face, neck and body. This is because it has several tips that act directly on the layers of the skin, promoting firmness and destroying localized fat.
Ultraformer is not an invasive procedure. It uses intense ultrasound energy to lift and firm the skin by heating the tissue and stimulating the body’s own collagen production. The treatment can be used on the face and neck, to improve the contour of the face, as well as other parts of the body.
Radiesse
Radiesse is a treatment carried out using calcium hydroxyapatite, a collagen biostimulator that has a good filling and facial volume report.
It is an injectable gel that can immediately provide correction of the common effects brought about by aging, such as sagging and loss of skin support, as its components stimulate the natural tuning of the skin’s collagen.
Radiesse is highly recommended for people who want to reverse the loss of their skin’s natural support.
It can be used for various treatments, such as:
- Cheeks;
- Jaw angle;
- Chin;
- Seasons.
