REMEMBER: Gravity acts on flesh
The face and body have anchor points where the flesh is secured to the bone (red areas). on the body it is often the bony joints, such as knee and ankle, or elbow and wrist. It is the areas in between these anchor points that are most affected by gravity and "sag"(blue areas)
Young skin is very full, firm and full of water. it can hold a firm shape without too much sag. As the body ages, the skin becomes thinner, dryer and more susceptible to the pull of gravity.
Gravity on the face - This is a really good Demo! -
