Crepey skin is a common yet often misunderstood manifestation of skin aging. It is defined by thin, fragile, finely wrinkled skin with reduced elasticity, resulting in a delicate, paper‑like appearance. Unlike deeper wrinkles or laxity driven primarily by volume loss, crepey skin reflects deterioration in skin quality and dermal structure itself. This change most often […]

Losing a significant amount of weight is worth celebrating. But for many patients, a frustrating new concern follows the progress: skin that looks older, looser, or less defined than the body underneath it.  On the face, that might mean a softer jawline or a neck that no longer looks as tight.
