    Well , I know nobody wants to hear this unfortunately the only way to get rid of it is tummy tuck...

    I've been told, massage, plenty of water, moisturinsing, exercise and static stretching help. But it will depend on other factors too such ad age and genetics. Good luck.

    if anyone finds a magic cure, i'd love to hear about it ;)

    I have tried everything except tummy tuck.

    It has been 30 years since my last c-section and I have learned that is my badge for having 2 of the most wonderful men I know in my life. :-)

    Some women have accomplished this without surgery, but it's rare.

    No idea....but I don't mind having mine.....it's only noticeable when I'm down near my target weight so I look at it in a positive way.

    Genetics....

    If you are fit and toned and still have it, it is extra skin that no matter what you do it will not go away without surgery...genetsics plays a huge part in how your skin recovers after being stretched.
