Stephaniea2412 3 Posted March 15, 2013 I know that exercise is the only sure way to tighten skin, but does anyone know of any creams that are good with removing/hiding stretch marks or tightening skin so there isn't so much sag? I'm starting to look for something, but I want to make sure it works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CHEZNOEL 4,061 Posted March 15, 2013 I know of no such miracle creams... but if you find them let me know! 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! 12,703 Posted March 15, 2013 Honestly, not much. I know coco butter can really help stretch marks a lot. I use Roc Retinol for fine lines and wrinkles on my face it and has helped considerably. But sagging skin is different. If you only have a little, you might find one that helps, but if you have a lot nothing will help. Sagging skin is greatly dependent on how long you've been overweight and how much, how much you lose, your age, skin elasticity, and genetics. Some people get really lucky with none while others have a ton of it. Good luck! 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
laurigee 545 Posted March 15, 2013 I'm a slow loser! I think that made a big difference in excess skin. That's just my opinion. I also exercise and drink a lot of water! I think if you quickly take out a bunch of fat and don't replace it with some muscle your guaranteed loose skin! That's just been my experience. 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AbbieL 63 Posted March 15, 2013 Use vitiman e oil, every night. It's cheap and you can get it at any drug store. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People mistake creams that help fade them as much as possible with making them disappear 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AbbieL 63 Posted March 16, 2013 You get stretch marks when your skin shrinks also, so if you have fast weight loss you can create new ones. Vitamin e oil can really hydrate your skin and penetrate deep, it will lessen the lightlyhood of getting them. I used it religiously when I was pregnant and didn't get one stretch mark.
