Age, loss of fat and weakening of the elastin and collagen components of connective tissue can lead to the sagging of skin. It becomes thinner than normal skin and loses its elasticity and smooth texture. While there are thousands of ointments and lotions in the market today that claim to get rid of your wrinkled skin, any homemade remedy for sagging skin can be quite effective as well.
Oil Remedies
Castor oil in its pure and odorless state constitutes a potent natural cure for sagging skin. Apply this regularly, no less than twice a day for about a month, on your face, under your eyes, on your throat or massage any other part of the body with wrinkled skin for effective results.
You can also make a concoction out of a quarter cup each of infusion of comfrey and witch hazel and about 10 drops of the essential oil of patchouli (all three available readily in stores). Mix these well and store in a clean air-tight jar or bottle.
Soak some cotton wool in the mixture and apply directly on sagged skin zones.
Another effective homemade treatment for sagging skin involves regular nightly massages with warm coconut oil. Rub any body part with sagging skin firmly but gently. You could try consuming a tablespoon of flaxseed oil, no less than four times a day, for about a month for similar results too.
Kitchen Remedies
Take a couple of teaspoons of full-fat yogurt and mix it with half a teaspoon each of lime juice and honey and contents of three vitamin E capsules, available at any pharmacy. Soak some cotton wool in this mixture and rub it into the skin area prone to sagging. Leave undisturbed for no less than 10 minutes before rinsing away with cold water.
You could also make a paste of a teaspoon of turmeric powder and a tablespoon of sugarcane juice. Rub this paste gently into the area that has sagged to get rid of wrinkles and slow down the aging process. Mashed strawberries or a tablespoon of cucumber juice or a mixture of an egg white and a tablespoon of honey are also effective home remedies for wrinkled skin areas.
Fruit Remedies
Take a couple of seedless green grapes and smash it tenderly on the area of your skin that has sagged. Leave it undisturbed for no less than 20 minutes before you wash it away with warm water and let the wetness disappear under normal atmospheric conditions.
Another sagging skin remedy comes in the form of pineapple juice. Take a pineapple core and massage the sagged skin of your face or throat with it. Leave undisturbed for at least a quarter of an hour before washing away gently with warm water. A similar procedure with fresh juice of the green apple can also be beneficial for sagging skin conditions.
Balanced Diet
Include plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables and whole grained sources of starch in your regular day to day diet plan to get rid of wrinkled, sagged skin and get back your youthful looks. Consume at least eight to 10 glasses of water every day in order to keep your skin well moisturized and hydrated from inside.
