Loose Skin on Lower Stomach - Pls Help

[EnergizerBunni]

Hi all, i was wondering if someone could please give me some advice.

I am a 5'8 female, 61kg with about 17-18% body fat.
When i was younger i was overweight and as a result i have always had loose skin on my lower stomach - not very much, but enough to bother me. There is a little fat underneath it, but there was a time when i was severly underweight it was there even then.

I've tried everything, but regardless of what i do i can never seem to get my lower stomach to tighten up. The rest of my body is fine and i know that i can't spot reduce, so i wanted to know if anyone has any helpful info?

Thank you!!

nothing is going to make it tighten up. i too have loose skin on my lower stomach, due to having a 10lb baby, and i have had very low bodyfat and it doesnt go away. building up your core muscles will help a little bit, but i actually find that the lower my BF gets, the more pronounced the sagging is at the bottom of my stomach.

if you have the money, you could consider a tummy tuck, but its a very hard and expensive surgery and the road to recovery would be very long.

sorry, once the skin is stretched out, it can only tighten up so much
