Skin Laxity, Sagging Skin & Anti-Aging Solutions at Shine MD, Vancouver
Skin laxity is one of the most common signs of aging. As collagen and elastin decline, the skin becomes looser, thinner, and less supported, especially around the neck, jowls, and under the chin. Whether caused by aging, weight changes, sun exposure, or genetics, skin laxity can have a significant impact on how you feel.
At Shine MD in Vancouver, we offer medically advanced, anti-aging solutions designed to restore firmness, lift, and confidence.

What Is Skin Laxity (Sagging Skin)?
Skin laxity refers to the gradual loosening, sagging, or “drooping” of the skin as structural proteins decline over time. This is most noticeable in areas where the skin is naturally thinner or more mobile
Loss of firmness is a natural part of aging and weight loss, but Shine MD offers safe, effective, non-surgical options to tighten and rebuild support from within.
How Shine MD Treats Skin Laxity
Whether it is for anti-aging or stubborn body areas, we customize every skin tightening plan based on your skin type, anatomy, and goals. Our comprehensive tool kit includes the latest non-surgical tightening and collagen-building technologies:
Quantum RF – Our Newest & Most Powerful Skin Tightening System
Quantum RF is the next generation of minimally invasive RF technology—designed specifically for tightening small, delicate, or hard-to-treat areas like the:
- Neck
- Jowls
- Jawline
- Double chin
- Under-chin area
- Small body areas with loose skin (knees, underarm folds, back of arms and inner thighs).
Using a tiny, precision RF probe placed just beneath the skin, Quantum RF delivers controlled heat directly into the deeper layers where collagen contracts and regenerates. This creates significant tightening, improved definition, and long-lasting remodeling. This is layered on the same day with Morpheus8 burst and then followed by two additional sessions of radiofrequency microneedling.
Why Patients Love Quantum RF:
- Remarkable tightening for small, sagging areas
- Minimal downtime
- Natural anti-aging results that continue to improve over months
- Sculpts and tightens simultaneously
- Safe for all skin types
- Important to note that while some results are visible shortly after the treatment, the improvement is gradual, and final results are visible by six months post-treatment.
Quantum RF is ideal for patients who want visible tightening and contouring without surgery.
✔ AccuTite
A minimally invasive RF treatment for small, precise areas of laxity. This is similar to Quantum RF, but uses a smaller probe and can address upper and lower eye lids and nasolabial folds.
✔ Morpheus8 Burst and Potenza RF Microneedling
Improves laxity, texture, lines, and scars by stimulating deep collagen remodeling. Usually layered as a treatment with Accutite and Quantum RF.
✔ Sculptra®
An injectable biostimulator that restores collagen and reverses age-related volume loss. Provides global, volumization and improves skin quality and texture.
✔ Halo™ Hybrid Fractional Laser
Improves crepey texture, fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring and stimulates skin repair and rejuvenation.
✔ Helix Fusion CO2 Laser
A dual-wavelength fractional CO₂ technology designed to dramatically improve acne scarring, fine lines, and wrinkles while delivering deep skin tightening and collagen stimulation.
Which Treatment Is Right for You?
During your consultation, our clinicians assess:
- Severity of skin laxity
- Skin thickness and quality
- Anti-aging goals
- Treatment comfort preferences
- Timeline and downtime availability
From there, we design a personalized plan—often combining technologies for the most natural, youthful results.
