Netizen: I have lost some weight. Unfortunately ... It gave me a wrinkled face. What happened? And what are some tips to tighten loose skin?
Response: Losing weight should be done gradually ... not overnight. When you lose some weight ... expect wrinkles especially if your weight before was abominably obese and bloated and your skin was stretched to its limits.
What happened? Well, the fat that cushioned your face has thinned and since the cushion is out the facial skin sags and looks droopy.
The more overweight you are, the more it affects your skin elasticity. Skin after weight loss is loose and the older you are collagen becomes less in your skin. As one dermatologist says, Collagen is what keeps our skin from sagging giving us that plump and youthful look.
Some helpful tips to have facial rejuvenation and tighten skin are eating a balanced diet, quitting smoking, staying hydrated, use of firming creams, exercising, use of collagen and food that helps firm the skin like bananas, aloe vera, and cucumber.
Others resort to body contouring surgery and other cosmetic surgeries. Natural remedies do not work when there has been significant weight loss. Surgical treatment is often necessary to deal with loose skin or excess skin after major or extreme weight loss.
