km27tx 0 Posted December 27, 2016 I am actually having the duodenal switch but the bypass is closest to it. I know with rapid weight loss causes skin to sag. I had a Dr suggest that I start exercising and toning the areas I want firm before so that it won't be as hard after. I was also wondering about skin care and especially the face. I don't want to have the sunken in face or the loose skin on my neck. I want to start exercise and skin care. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should be doing as far as skin care or suggestions on products.

Daisy Day 91 Posted December 27, 2016 I use a good moisturizer (never a plain lotion) before I really towel off and I use humidifiers in my house to keep from drying out. I worked out a ton before surgery and even though I'm only 5 weeks out I am doing everything thing that I can safely do. Working out, moisture, and drinking Water will all help in the battle against the sag. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

km27tx 0 Posted December 27, 2016 But aren't the wraps just temporary? Will using them over and over lead to longer term results? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I haven't reached maintenance yet but what I heard you only need to do it once a month if that.
