We first need to understand what causes our facial skin to wrinkle and sag. As we age, our muscles become accustomed to certain expressions and tend to get stuck in these positions. A great example of this is the furrow between the eyebrows that many people get. At the same time, other muscles in our face are hardly ever used, and they begin to shrink. This leads to sagging. An example of this can often be seen around our jaw lines, chin and neck. We tend to develop sagging or loss of definition in these area as we get older.

With age, skin cells become less active, which leads to a breakdown of Collagen and Elastin. By the age of 45, the upper cheek muscles may elongate by as much as half an inch. This leads to  skin dragging over the cheeks downward to form plump little pouches at the corners of the mouth. The muscles under the chin become loose and the jaw line loses its firm contour.
