Faitheyfoo 6 Posted January 11, 2017 So I'm 7 months out and I've lost 115 lbs...needless to say I have a little bit of loose skin, although i am actually lucky because it's not a lot. Any recommendations on home remedies, loations or exercises that help firm/tighten skin? Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sweesee 30 Posted January 12, 2017 I use nivea skin firming lotion mixed with "Mother's Special Blend" toning oil You can get the mothers special blend at whole foods or online Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lurker lora 89 Posted January 12, 2017 Why do you mix? Just curious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sweesee 30 Posted January 12, 2017 For the benefits of both. I don't like the texture of re oil alone and it seems to soak in better mixed with the lotion. I also sometimes mix lubriderm in it as well *the oil alone. Sorry typo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erp 2,016 Posted January 12, 2017 Time. Seriously. 7 months of rapid weight loss, your skin needs time to catch up. I have loose skin but saw a noticeable improvement between year 1 and year 2. I also work out regularly and hit my Water goals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sandee29 113 Posted January 15, 2017 I don't think a cream will help. Exercise & toning is the key. I lost 95 lbs at one point and toned most of my body except my inner thighs which were beyond toning and tightening loose skin. All depends on your skin's elasticity.
