My stomach skin is saggy from losing 60lbs, what can i do.

[DIVISION]

ive gone from 260lbs to 200lbs in 1 year. now above my waist i have a buildup of saggy skin, its not terrible, but I dought ill look right when i get my bf in the single digits. is there any creams to try to get the skin elastic back.
appricate any help

Preparation H and Yohimburn......

those will help greatly........and if those can't shrink up that area, I'd say your best bet is surgery. There's nothing worse than when you have low BF% but still have a pouch like a saggy baggy elephant.

imho, NOT.

1) the prep h skin tightening urban myth is actually true for the canadian import version, but its only a temporary diuretic illusion, and useless for the severe condition he describes. its useful for under eye bags for instance. butin any event, 4 hours later, everything is back to baseline.

btw, the main ingredient in US & canadian versions is actually a topical vasoconstrictor which would have no effect on loose skin but shrinks blood vessels (a hemmorroid is actually just an extruded vein)

2) as to yohimburn, this will aid in further fat loss, which will create more loose skin for him to not use preparation h on.

[QUOTEsoflaguy]No, no, no....why is everyone promoting surgery and drugs?!!

bro, god knows i am NOT promoting surgery. I don't know if you personally understand this type of situation. We're talking about when you bend over, your stomach skin just hangs there...it's disgusting.

Sorry, its a fact, and unless you are in the same boat as us, you would not know.

Still bullshit. I went from fat 220 to a ripped 172lbs. I had loose skin too
Unless you are over 40, the skin will repair itself.
It is amazing what water will do for the skin, if someone is truly drinking 1-2 gallons of water it will work. I know because I never touched GH or had any surgery.

Some people are different. My brother went from 230 lbs to 160 lbs and he's a marathon runner now. He's got abs and obliques and from looking at him, you would have never known he was fat. His skin didn't get stretched out and it looks perfect now. I weighed 305lbs in high school, which was close to 15 years ago now, and now, I weight bout 230 and, admittedly, my stomach skin has come down a bit, but its still loose and even at low bf levels, I don't have a six pack. I also drink at least a gallon of water a day and I've tried the prep h and that new derma crap that they advertise to get rid of stretch marks, and none of that stuff worked for me.
I know you have your own story, but you already know just from working out and reading on this board that what works for one person doesn't always work for the other.

anything that boosts the formation of collegen & elastin will help (as will time if you're relatively young).

so anavar, EQ, GH, & topical Retin-A & topical copper peptide products (neutrogena visibly firm night cream for example).

The copper peptides are much better and cheaper through skinbio - that's the patent-owner's site.

And yes, the y do work.

With all due respect....skin will NOT always repair itself...no matter WHAT you do....everyone is different and I have heard of some people losing quite a bit of weight and still able to get tight, but its NOT the norm....especially if the weight loss was substantial and quick....there are areas...particularly the lower abdomen on guys that WONT go away without surgery....TRUST me ...after losing 80lbs when I was a kid...Im talking 16 yrs old...and 10 yrs of training later...I can get RIPPED everywhere...have veins running through my traps, biceps, quads..even my LATS..an SLIGHT upper ab 4-pack...but STILL have a SOFT FLABBY APRON FOLD of HANGING SKIN ..it SUX
