I bought Loreal Revitalift. I hear nothing but good things about it.. It is fairly expensive so I will just use it on my face and neck. I also heard there is a Jergens skin firming lotion. I am going to look for that bad boy at Walgreens today.

I started wearing the tightest sports bras I could fit into from 2 weeks post op. my tummy is saggy, my arms and legs too, but even though I've gone from a c cup to an a cup, my boobs don't jiggle at all. Compression works great. Getting myself some skinny jeans and a leather jacket to live in from now on.

Seriously, do the firming creams do anything?

Who knows, I would rather be safe then sorry. If it helps out a little bit then that's awesome. Plus you get nice soft glowing skin afterwards. I would rather do it myself. Nothing wrong with putting extra Vitamins on your skin.

I'm going to do wraps. I'm even thinking about selling them if they work. I think it would be fun to do the parties. Plus I'm part owner of a Hair/Nail salon so I have a good exposure there

Are wraps supposed to make your skin more firm?

You can try the creams and wraps.

Genetics, age, and skin elasticity pretty much determine whether or not your skin will firm up or not.

But, if you have money to burn giving products a try, just keep track of what does and does not work as this question comes up a lot

Wraps are kind of temporary. I've never heard of any lasting results. They cost a lot. I recommend taking collagen supplements. Try this: dry brush(helps circulation), wash with sulfate free body wash( helps retain moisture), exfoliate(2x a week, gets additional dead skin off), moisturize with a good body cream( nivea is good). Supplement with silcon and collagen( you can find a good hair, skin and nails supplement at GNC or walgreens).

Also, wear a compression garment to hold things in. Gravity will only stretch and pull as you lose weight. It'll help. It'll never prevent it totally, but it'll help. Weight lifting will help, also.

Good luck!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
