Squalane is increasingly recommended for exactly this — and for good reason.

What is Squalane

Squalane is a lightweight, non-comedogenic oil identical to the skin's own lipids.

How Squalane helps for sagging skin

Sagging occurs when the skin's support structure weakens and the contour blurs. Squalane approaches the problem from a different angle: squalane is a lightweight, non-comedogenic oil identical to the skin's own lipids. As a result, used consistently, it gently improves the skin for sagging skin.

How to use it

  • Cleanse with a gentle, non-stripping product.
  • Apply squalane to dry skin, starting 2–3 times a week.
  • Seal with a moisturiser to support the barrier.
  • Always use SPF 30+ in the morning.

Precautions

Suits all skin types, including oily, and leaves no greasy film. Collagen stimulation and device-based methods work best in combination.
