Can you tighten loose skin naturally? I believe yes! There are some circumstances, of course, that someone could be left with a large amount of loose skin that will shrink back, but very very slowly.
What causes this? Anyone who has weight loss surgery or looses weight quickly on a fad diet will find that their skin has a droopy appearance.
The cause of this is one of two things, the first one is that the person lost not only fat, but muscle tissue leaving the skin with little to hang on to.
The second reason why there seems to be excess skin is that there is body fat trapped under the skin.
Most plastic surgeons will tell anyone that loose skin can never shrink back.
This is a myth! If someone lost weight without exercise, or they still have body fat to lose then the skin can shrink back.
It is important to lose body fat and replace the fat with muscle while losing weight.
If you were somewhat overweight and lose less than 200 lbs, chances are your skin will shrink back.
Skin is an organ, that has the ability to expand and contract thanks for collagen.
Collagen breaks down over time and with age, but typically those who lose a lot of weight are not over 60 or 70 years of age unless for medical reasons.
What can you do about your loose skin? Strength train! You may still have body fat to burn, but it's important to start an exercise and strength training program.

Even if you're a women do not be afraid of gaining muscle, this will provide you with the sleek and flawless look you've always dreamed of.
Muscle will give you curves and a feminine shape.
