Is there any way to get rid of extra skin around the abdomen short of abdominoplasty?

I have had three children, the last about 12 years ago. I am only 41, but I%26#039;m stuck with extra skin hanging on my abdomen. I am 5%26#039;9%26quot; and weigh about 130 pounds, but this extra skin is disgusting. Is there a particular exercise or diet regime - or even a cosmetic procedure that can reduce it without the major surgery of abdominoplasty?|||The unfortunate answer is probably not. You can buy skin firming treatments and creams that will work to firm up your abdomen, but if there are large flaps of skin, then these treatments probably won%26#039;t give you the results you want. Some excersizes can help to increase blood flow to your abs (jogging, aerobic ab excersizes) and that will rejuvenate your skin. You can also look at your current diet/lifestyle to see if there are any causes that are slowing your skin rejuvenation. Do you smoke? Do you drink alot? Smoking and drinking alcohol can change your skin tone. Tanning and other practices that cause skin damage could also be slowing your progress.





Loose skin is probably the hardest thing to fix because you cannot just work it off. It isnt fat and doesnt mean that you are physically unfit. Abdominoplasty procedures have made great progresses that reduce scaring and damage caused by the surgery. Also, recovery time is steadily decreasing due to improved techniques. Talk to a plastic surgeon on a consult. A consultation doesnt commit you to anything, but perhaps he/she can give you more insight into procedures that can help reduce loose skin. Who knows, maybe the doctor can suggest other remedies instead of surgery. Good luck!|||visit http://www.whyabdominoplasty.com to learn more about abdominoplasty. Report Abuse
|||Get cosmetic surgery in India. Cosmetic Surgery is very cheap in India. There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges cosmetic surgery for foreigners in India. They are called the Forerunners Healthcare. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories.





I have also read that they arrange financing for American and Canadian patients, as cosmetic surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. The cost savings are incredible. As a doctor I personally believe that your cosmetic surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available here is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.





My cousin got a couple of cosmetic surgery procedures in India like the breast reduction, tummy tuck and facelift through the forerunners healthcare. She is more than very happy with the results. She just paid 30% of the amount she was quoted in USA and is all praise for this forerunners healthcare company. I personally have seen the wonderful results and am particularly impressed with the kind of quality care she got from this company. I hope this helps.

I have been using Oil of Olay%26#039;s skin firming lotion and have noticed a significant improvement. It probably won%26#039;t do it all, but it has certainly made a big difference. One word of caution: This lotion contains caffeine. If you are caffeine sensitive -- use only in the morning...|||aerobics will tighten up those flabby places, just stay consistant with your workouts
