Does anyone else worry about loose skin? Is there a way to stop it from happening?

    Yes I worry about it ive had 3 children and so I have a bit I moisturise exfoliate and use firming oil everyday as I do on all my skin to try and keep it to a minimum id also recommend losing weight slowly and keeping the skin hydrated but ultimately if its gonna happen not sure you can do much

    Dove has a really good body wash that helps with reducing cellulite. When you use it every day it really does make a difference, you just can't expect it to take off a lot, creams and lotions can only help so much.

    I always thought that if the weight is lost slowly over the course of months your body adapts and the skin has time to adapt as well i only ever see loose skin on people who lost an extreme amount of weight a very short time frame
