To tighten sagging skin at home effectively, start by taking 10 grams of collagen peptides and 500mg of Vitamin C daily to boost elastic fiber production. Next, apply a serum containing 0.3% retinol and 5% niacinamide every morning and night, gently massaging it upward for 3 minutes to enhance absorption. Additionally, do facial yoga three times a week—like puffing your cheeks and holding for 30 seconds per set, repeating five sets—since studies show this can improve skin firmness by 23% after 8 weeks. Finish with alternating warm and cool compresses (three warm cycles followed by two cool ones) to stimulate collagen and tighten your skin naturally.
