Looking for Biotin and Collegen

Hello Everyone,

I am about 3 weeks out of revision band to RNY.  Im concern about hair lost and lost of elasticity in the skin.  Can anyone suggest a chew-able Biotin and Collagen supplements?

Thanks

Save your money.  Nothing you do or take will stop the hair loss.  Here is a link to explain why it happens.  The hair loss is from the shock of surgeryn on the body and the rapid weight loss.  It is temporary.  The hair starts falling out at around 3 months out from surgery and usuaally stops at about 9 months.  Most of us just get a new, shorter hair cut and ride out the loss.

Wow...good to know. 

Biotin will help the new hair you grow to be healthy and strong...but it does absolutely ZERO to prevent hair loss.  The other side effect is that biotin can promote faster hair growth every where!  The hair on your legs, under your arms, on your chinny-*****hin...you get the picture 

  LOL!!!! I get the picture.  

Amen to that!! Shaving the legs every day this summer was a drag!!

no amount of collagen will replace the elasticity of morbidky obese skin. It has stretched past its elasticity and it can't be recovered. 

You would do better to save that money for skin removal. It is the only thing that works. 

Like already posted, nothing will stop telogen effluvium.  Just be braced for it around 3 mos post op and ride it out for 2-3 months until it stops.  For skin elasticity, you need more hydration, not collagen.  It takes a few months to get malnourished, not 3 weeks.
