Hello everyone: Since my insurance will not cover body contouring procedures after weight loss surgery, do skin firming products actually work? If so, which ones should I try? Thank you.

No, they don't work. No lotion or exercise is going to remove excess skin. Save your money.

I'm female, buying expensive things that won't actually turn me into a glowing skinned goddess is what we do...

You can make yourself smell pretty though.

It rubs the lotion on its skin. It does this whenever it is told.

 

It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again.

Do you prefer your chanti at room temp or cold? Or with a little pâté ?

Actually I do prefer Amarone. They had to dumb it down to Chianti for the movie.  Sorry one of my favorite book series.  ;)

Nothing but plastic surgery will get rid of the sagginess or extra skin that is left after large amount of weight.  Men have the option of beefing up and filling up that space with muscle...where the fat once was.  But as women we would look awfully muscular if we tried the same.  

But hey I would rather have the lose skin than the big rolls of fat.

I am using a skin firming lotion, and while it is making my skin look better in general, I did notice an improvement on my thighs, but not my batwings after a month. (I took photos)... but that being said I am not talking miracles here, just some improvement...
