Covid Policy PricingWhy Does My Skin Sag?
Have you noticed your skin sagging as you get older? Due to the skin’s natural ageing process, your body produces less collagen and elastin. This results in your skin becoming less firm and resilient.
Your skin gets saggy due to genetics and environmental factors like sun exposure and pollution. Rapid weight loss and smoking are also factors leading to skin becoming saggy.
At the Dr. Jodie clinic near Canterbury, we offer a range of treatments aimed at skin firming and tightening. By stimulating the body’s natural collagen and elastin production mechanisms, our treatments work primarily to improve skin laxity.
Our skin sagging treatments near Canterbury include the Scarlet S Radio Frequency Microneedling device, Laser Genesis, IPL skin rejuvenation, and other medical treatments (that cannot legally be discussed online as they infer the use of schedule 4 medication).
Maintaining an appropriate skin care regime by using SPF 50+ sunscreen to enhance your treatment outcomes and prevent the re-development of saggy skin is essential. You should also avoid the sun and live a healthy lifestyle.

Skin Rejuvenation Skin Laser Skin TighteningAt the forefront of minimally invasive skin tightening methods is The Scarlet S Radio Frequency Microneedling device. At Dr. Jodie’s Canterbury clinic, this treatment combines microneedling with the power of radiofrequency energy. This skin tightening treatment triggers your body’s healing mechanisms to promote the generation of elastin and collagen leading to tighter, firmer skin with a fresher look and improved tissue elasticity.
The Scarlet S Radio Frequency Microneedling device is an add-on to skin tightening that also improves the appearance of skin irregularities, like enlarged pores, acne scarring, fine lines, and wrinkles. We are proud to offer this advanced solution to Canterbury residents who want to achieve smoother looking skin.
Amazingly, after being treated with the Scarlet S Radio Frequency Microneedling device, only minimal recovery time is required. Clients commonly experience mild facial redness for 1-2 days, with barely visible, transient ‘grid marks’. These usually resolve over 1-2 weeks (at worst). Compared to the Morpheus 8 and the Secret, skin tightening treatment with Scarlet S typically involves less downtime and less pain. The gold-plated patented technology has tapered, non-insulated microneedles that heat the entire skin in a single pass. Other technologies normally use insulated needles that entail multiple passes through your skin to treat all the layers. This approach adds to the skin trauma and recovery time with no better results. Even so, all devices carry risks and these will be fully addressed before you proceed with your treatment.
At the Dr. Jodie clinic near Canterbury, we recommend a minimum of 3 to 4 treatments of Radio frequency tightening. We suggest that you space them out over a few months for optimal skin tightening results. As the Scarlet S Radio Frequency Microneedling Device is suitable for all skin types, no Canterbury residents need to miss out!
Dr. Jodie’s Laser Genesis In Canterbury Helps To Firm and Tighten Skin
Laser Genesis is a non-invasive laser treatment that enhances your skin’s firmness by heating the lower layers of the skin to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. As no recovery time is required, this device is a favourite among Canterbury residents who don’t need to adjust their social calendar.
While Laser Genesis firms skin, it also improves acne scars, minimises pores, and smooths fine lines and wrinkles. This skin firming treatment shrinks your face’s tiny broken facial capillaries, resulting in less facial redness and flushing.
Like most treatments in the Dr. Jodie clinic near Canterbury, the best outcomes occur after serial sessions. We recommend a series of 4-6 treatments spaced one month apart.
The Medi Pulse Pro XL IPL rejuvenation treatment releases a broad band of light onto your skin. As it encounters a range of targets, including molecules responsible for the colour of your skin, oxyhaemoglobin (responsible for the red hue) and melanin (responsible for the brown hue), and water molecules, light gets absorbed as heat. This effectively damages your skin and prompts your body’s natural renewal processes to replace old, damaged tissue with fresh, new skin. This process encourages the production of new elastin and collagen, resulting in tighter and smoother skin.
Medi Pulse Pro IPL treatments focusing on vascular complaints and skin pigmentation require recovery time, as you will commonly experience bronzing, bruising, and even swelling. However, rejuvenation treatments often don’t need downtime to recover. Rejuvenation treatments at our clinic near Canterbury are a low to no-downtime event that leads to gradual skin transformations with minimal disruptions to your daily life. The best outcome occurs after a series of treatments.

Loose skin is primarily a result of the natural ageing process. As you get older, the body produces less elastin and collagen. This results in a decrease in your skin elasticity and firmness. Environmental factors like sun exposure, genetics, smoking, and rapid weight loss can also contribute to loose skin. The Dr. Jodie Clinic offers a wide range of treatments aimed at firming and tightening the skin by stimulating the body’s natural elastin and collagen production mechanisms.
The Scarlet S Radio Frequency Microneedling device combines radiofrequency energy with microneedling to trigger the body’s healing mechanisms. This encourages collagen and elastin production, leading to tighter, firmer skin with improved elasticity and a refreshed appearance. This skin tightening device can also enhance the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scarring and enlarged pores, providing Canterbury residents with a cutting-edge solution for smoother-looking skin.
Laser Genesis is a non-invasive laser treatment. It heats the lower layers of the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production. This treatment enhances skin firmness without any recovery time, which is why Canterbury residents say it’s a favourite. Laser Genesis can also minimise pores, smooth fine lines, and improve acne scarring to provide comprehensive skin rejuvenation.
Medi Pulse Pro XL IPL treatment uses broad-spectrum light to target water, melanin, and oxyhaemoglobin in the skin. This stimulates renewal processes where old tissue, unwanted blood vessels and pigmentation are removed while new collagen and elastin are produced, resulting in tighter, smoother, clearer skin. Treatments for pigmentation and vascular issues may require downtime. However, rejuvenation treatments often do not. This allows a gradual transformation with minimal disruption. The best results are seen after serial treatments.
By offering access to cutting-edge technologies and a holistic, patient-centred approach, the Dr. Jodie Clinic stands out as a leader in aesthetic medicine for Canterbury residents. Dr. Jodie and her team are dedicated to delivering excellent care and reliable outcomes. Explore your skin tightening options and schedule a consultation with your Dr. Jodie clinician today.
