WHAT IS FLACCIDITY?
With the passing of time and other concomitant factors, an alteration in the subdermal and dermal nourishment is produced which caused laxity and softening of the skin. Flaccidity is basically an alteration in the elasticity of all tissue that is mostly made up of connective tissue; the degeneration of the collagen and elastin and the drop in the rate of renewal of these fibres from the fibroblast are the main factors influencing this aesthetic problem which is directly related to ageing. The skin is an organ with multiple functions: • Barrier • Thermoregulation • Water balance • Immunological role Furthermore, skin beauty is basically conditioned by its youth.
