Maggie1955 158 Posted December 9, 2017 I am scheduled for surgery on 1/2/18. One thing that worries me is sagging skin; I know it’s vain. I am 62 years old and I am guessing there is not much elasticity left in my skin. Right now, at 225 pounds, people say I look a lot younger. I want to do everything possible to combat looking old. Has anyone tried dry brushing and if so, do you feel it helped? I look at all the amazing before/after photos and so many of you look absolutely fantastic and don’t appear to have skin sagging. Does anyone have any other advice on keeping skin in top shape? Thank you all in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Msdooloo 102 Posted December 9, 2017 I dry brush and I love it! Really gets the lymphatic system going. It keeps the skin on my inner and outer thighs more firm. It does help with cellulite and if I'm retaining Water I just do a quick dry brush and that Water retention is gone. I also use Himalayan sea salt scrubs 3x a week during my showers and it works wonders. Definitely think you should give it try Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app 1 Maggie1955 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Msdooloo 102 Posted December 9, 2017 It's a natural detox that also helps with skin tightening, cellulite and blood circulation. You use a soft but firm wooden hand brush. You start at your feet and work your way up to the heart. 2x a day and it works wonders for me. Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Msdooloo 102 Posted December 10, 2017 Nothing is on the brush. You just start from your feet and move the brush in circular motions up towards your heart. I do all of my legs, tummy, buttocks and then start at my finger tips and move towards the center of my chest.Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
