How to remove loose skin

Reduced tone and elasticity of the skin leads to the formation wrinkles, dryness and flabbiness of the skin. There can be many reasons for this. Atonic skin, as it is called in medicine, manifests itself when the connection between it and the muscles that it covers is lost.

Laxity can appear not only on the face, but also on the neck, abdomen, thighs, arms, etc. How to deal with this unpleasant phenomenon, and what are the reasons for its formation, we will tell you today.

Loose skin: what to do

Age-related changes on the skin are already noticeable after 25 years... At this age, the first wrinkles begin to appear, and various creams, massages and other anti-aging procedures help to prolong youth. At the age of 40, the skin loses its elasticity little by little, its turgor weakens and women notice the first signs of sagging. However, age-related changes do not always begin during this period. An important role is played by the hereditary factor, due to which they can begin much earlier. In addition, the main causes of sagging skin can be:

• Weak muscle tone, as it affects the blood supply to the epidermis and creates a flabby appearance.
• Birth of a child. During pregnancy, the body in the abdominal area is stretched and becomes flabby immediately after childbirth. But with proper care, it quickly returns to normal.
• A sudden drop in weight can lead to sagging of the canopy.
• Certain diseases and stresses that adversely affect the health of the body can cause the formation of atonic skin.

All these processes negatively affect the epidermis and lead to its dehydration, while the process of production of collagen and elastin, which are responsible for the turgor of the skin, slows down.

To avoid these troubles you must:

• Make tightening masks regularly, some of which are recipes below.
• Washing your face in the morning with cool water will help you avoid fine wrinkles.
• Apply tea bags to your eyes and treat your face with ice cubes from a herbal decoction prepared in advance. To do this, you can use the herb chamomile, dill, parsley and many other decoctions. At the same time, try not to freeze a lot of ice at once, since after 7-10 days of storage, the cubes lose most of their useful qualities.
• Do not forget about self-massage, this simple procedure can be done at home, but remember that before the session, you must definitely cleanse your skin or make a bath.
• Regular home exercise will help keep your body looking young for a long time.

Salon procedures aimed at increasing the elasticity of the epidermis show good results. But for this you need to complete the full course. To determine which procedure is right for you, it is better to consult with a specialist. Today, the following are very popular:

• Mesotherapy is a cold treatment in which nitrogen is injected to promote skin renewal.
• RF-lifting is a hardware effect on the body in order to increase its turgor.
• Fractional photothermolysis - treatment of laxity with a laser, a fairly effective and popular method.

If you decide to undergo a course of salon procedures, then you need to consult with a specialist, since despite the fact that the effect on the skin is superficial, there are still some restrictions that should be adhered to.

You can keep your face and décolleté youthful at home by doing the following exercises:

• Squeeze your cheeks with your fingers and try to smile without opening your mouth, first with one side, then with the other. Repeat the exercise several times.
• Tighten your chin and push it forward for a few seconds, then return to the starting position and repeat the movement forward 20-30 times.
• Close and tighten your lips, try to lift the lower lip up, while pressing the upper one against the lower one.

Exercise should be done before mild fatigue appears.

Loose skin on the abdomen

Flabbiness manifestation in the abdomen can occur for many reasons and often it is not related to age. Childbirth, drastic weight loss, unhealthy diet, lack of exercise and stress all lead to sagging skin. To achieve the ideal state of the skin, it is necessary not only to act locally on a certain part of the body, but also to additionally support the body with complex measures.

And remember, you cannot get rid of flabbiness in a day, for this you need to be patient. So, what needs to be done to increase the elasticity of the body.

First, it is proper nutrition. This is not about diets, but about a balanced diet. Try to keep your meals high in protein, fat and carbohydrates. Give preference to cooked foods, raw vegetables and fruits. Avoid excessive salt and sugar intake. Avoid baking. Switch to fractional meals.

Second, pay attention to the amount of water you drink. It is she who helps to remove harmful substances from the body and clean it. In addition, water stimulates the gastrointestinal tract and speeds up metabolic processes. Therefore, drink at least two liters of fluid throughout the day.

Third, remember to exercise. During the week, you need to carry out both fat burning and strength training. If the former will help get rid of subcutaneous fat, which gives the body a flabby look, the latter will activate muscle work and tone them. Fat-burning activities include cycling, skating, skiing, jogging in the park, jumping rope, or climbing stairs. But it is better to start strength training under the supervision of an experienced trainer who will teach you how to perform the exercises correctly so as not to accidentally injure yourself.

Fourth, massage. The procedure can be carried out both in the salon and at home. Honey and cupping massage well tighten the skin and stimulate internal processes, giving the body a firm look.

And yet, wraps help return the body to its ideal state. For the procedure, you can use honey, kelp, anti-cellulite drugs. Before the start of the session, the skin should be treated with a scrub. Then apply the prepared mixture, wrap in a film and cover with a warm blanket for 35 - 45 minutes. Finally, apply a moisturizer to your body.

And finally, we want to remind you about baths and saunas, visiting which will have a beneficial effect on the condition of the skin, since through the pores with perspiration, the removal of various toxins and toxins occurs much faster.

For body care at home, use the firming masks that we described above.
