So I recently lost 20 lbs randomly and now have these ripples on the inner sides of my boobs, they're not really stretch marks just ripples that I can feel more than see and im wondering what I can do to make them go away and if drinking lots of water will help firm my skin?

    Nope. That is from where your skin was stretched when you weighed more. After 1-2 years of maintenance, your skin will shrink back as much as it can. That may be nothing or may be a lot.

    I know since I have increased water intake, I noticed my face looks better and my hair is improving a lot, but that might be coincidental because my overall health has improved. Unfortunately, the loose skin and stretch marks are still there.

    Nope. There is a reason the term "tube sock boobs" exists. Boob job or suck it up and deal.

    Nope. Food. More of it. Unfortunately. Water will help your skin be and look healthier, but the ripples are from the loss of weight...and age has a lot to do with it, none of us are getting any younger :D

    No. Keep yourself healthy with good habits, see if it draws in naturally after 6-18 months, and if it doesn't either accept it or look into cosmetic options.

    Blame gravity. The cure for gravity is a place on the space station. Or Mars. There may be openings. Unfortunate side effects of a low gravity lifestyle include decreased bone density and atrophying muscles.

    It genuinely made me laugh that you would list the cons in case they were seriously considering it x)
