Try Gatineau, elemis (they have a marine cream that is £70)or Decleor. Good luck! |

Very good for scars in addition to skin tone. I find the most economical place to purchase is Costco. Leave your skin slightly damp after showering/bathing and rub in all over

Rep Power: 7 ![]() Diet: Slimming World Height: 5' 2" Start Date: 19/July/2011 Start Weight: 166lb Current Weight: 164lb Goal Weight: 136lb Goal Date: 15/June/2012 BMI Information: Start BMI: 30.4 Current BMI: 30 Goal BMI: 24.9 Statistics: Total Weight Loss: 2lb Weight to Lose: 28lb % Lost 1.2% | Im not sure about the firming bit about bio oil. People with saggy skin usually have lost a large amount of weight quickly, due pregnancy or weight gain and they usually have stretch marks too, so they vote for bio oil, however its not clinically proven to firm up the skin as far as im aware, but all means give it a go. There is no magic potion, the closest you can get to it with creams and the best i've found to firm up at a reasonable price is Nivea body firming lotion. I've noticed a difference in 6 weeks. You have to be patient and consistent though.. and then there's surgery.. Exercise will improve sagging, though not eliminate it completley.. the secret is to be consistant and persistant. |

A few years ago when I initially lost weight (I was 22 stone) I noticed my neck was looking saggy and old. I now use it on my neck for this purpose and the results are very good no more wrinkles or saggy skin, but I have been using it for years. I do also use it all over, and I am still very large but I do think it works as my skin is hydrated and elastic which is not bad for a 50 year old bird.

Rep Power: 17 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Diet: Bit of everything Height: 5' 10" | Exercising and lifting weights is supposed to help along with drinking water. Mositurising might [revent further stretchmarks but I doubt it would have any impact on loose skin once there. I think women are more prone to loose skin (we have more bits) but the treatments should be the same .
