I haven't tried it either. And in no way am I knocking this product ..but my rule of thumb has always been if it sounds to good to be true.... It probably is.

Of course for $2 it may be worth a shot. Just make sure there are. NO strings attached.

Missy, That is good to know! Thank you.

I have had skin fold dermatitis for a couple of years. I generally treat it with hydrogen peroxide followed by alcohol to dry it. Stings like crazy, but keeps it clean and helps it heal. I am way too early to check into skin removal, but if I can get THAT part of this journey covered by insurance, that will be SWEET!

I agree... talk to your doc, you may get insurance to pay for skin tightening.

I am going through the process of getting the lap band surgery so I don't have any post op experience to give.

I ordered the free sample and was impressed. There is a learning curve on cutting the strips to meet your body's needs. However, even after one day I found improvement and so have ordered two boxes since then. I think they are kind of pricey. With shipping and handling it comes to about $36 a box. They say you can reuse a strip up to five times or as needed. The longest I've use one strip is twice. I think the box has a strip of 10 inches wide and 30 inches long.

I've used it for the skin-on-skin in the overhang of skin on the belly.

I've never used the product myself because I've never experienced any problems with my skin. But I work in a care facility and we often use it on some of our residents who seem to have irritated skin under there breasts/groins/ tummy folds and such. It's like a miracle! I would consult your doctor first incase there's an infection of some sort, but it really does bring a lot of relief and helps heal from my experiences at work with it! :)

I am a RN and we use it in the hospital it really helps and one cloth should last a week I believe. It can be washed. I agree see your dr first in case there is an infection. Then use it.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
