For women over 40...wrinkles after weight-loss?

Depends on your skin. Looks like you're Asian, which means you've been blessed with more melanin (I think that's right) than those of us with Northern European ancestry. I'm mostly Irish, which means my skin is likely to age a lot more quickly than yours, independent of external factors like sun exposure, climate where you live, overall diet, etc.

That being said, I have NOT seen more wrinkles on my face with weight loss. My body, however, is a different story. I do have quite a bit of wrinkling on my arms (mostly at the elbows) and legs (knees and thighs), and my stomach looks sort of deflated when I bend over (though it looks good when I'm standing).

All in all, at 49 I'm mostly interested in looking good in clothes -- which I do -- so it doesn't freak me out too much. But I do hate what's happening to my skin. This aging thing is not all it's cracked up to be, is it? :ohwell:

I should say that I've tried every sort of cream out there. Q10, cocoa butter, vitamin E -- you name it. Haven't seen any difference. I've recently started taking fish oil, since it's good for me anyway, and am awaiting a huge transformation ... HA!

The younger you are the better your skin will look. Also the less you have to lose the better one's skin will look. It's all about elasticity. My skin was stretched way out and I'm in my fifties. My face is holding up well. Neck not so much and the world will never see me in a bikini. BUT I feel great. I look great in smaller clothes. I'm not worried about it. That might have something to do with my age too.

I was worried about this, but so far, I've been fine.

I think it also depends on how long you've been carrying the extra weight. I've noticed the last 20-30 pounds, my stomach is sagging and my neck skin is hanging. My arms are fit but the skin is so loose, it wobbles. I might have to get a lift for my arms, inner legs and tummy!

When you eat right and exercise, you just look better.

It depends on how you are going for the weight loss. Take proper diet and go for right exercise. Take proper vitamins this all will help you to lose weight and look beautiful.

it's going to depend on genetics and how fast you lose the weight

My family keeps telling me that they're worried if I lose too much weight I'll have more wrinkles...is this true?

ys its true weight loss can be a huge accomplishment for people who are overweight or trying to shed a few pounds, but dropping weight isn't all gravy. One of the biggest risks of weight loss is how it affects your skin.

If you don't take care of your skin when losing weight, serious consequences can result, including loose skin that can develop wrinkles and, ultimately, stretch marks. This can cause permanent scarring on your skin. Wrinkles can also age your skin's appearance in addition to acting as a precursor to stretch marks.

Can't remember who it was but I think it was an actress who said when you get older, you can either have a good face or a good body, but not both????

Kathleen Turner. But I believe she said something closer to, "As you age, you have to choose between your face and your *kitten*. I chose my face."

Catherine Deneuve said that she chose her face over her body. But I think it was only 10- 15 lbs that she was over and she was probably still within normal weight range for her age.

I choose all of them. And apply all the creams.

I lost 70 lbs recently and have wrinkly looking skin. I was told to get MSN and Biotin and it would help with the elasticy. I haven't gotten the Biotin yet, but have been taking MSN.
