ALOT of loose skin - Cosmetic / Plastic Surgery Message Board

fadam0023 · 06-17-2005, 12:19 PM

Over the past 2 years I have lost almost 90 pounds. Now I have all this loose skin on my stomach that I can't get rid of to save my life. I have a personal trainer and everything. I don't want a tummy tuck right now b/c I plan on having kids in the future. I am 25 so I would like that my skin should be able to bounce back. Is there any creams or anything of that nature that might help tightening my skin?

I am thinking, though, that I might get an arm lift. I have alot of loose skin under my arms. Has anyone had this, and do you know roughly how much it might cost?

Thanks

I think you would probably have to have surgery to get the loose skin tightened. A lot of people that have lost a lot of weight have to get this done. I don't think the upper arm tightening costs that much. It's a liposuction procedure. It's one that I was thinking about getting myself. I do exercises to tighten my triceps but I still have some under arm sagging. The tricep exercises do help though.
