Hi. Thru taking medications on and off, and gaining weight quickly, then losing it quickly, I have a lot of excess skin in the inner thigh area.
It was only about 20lbs. I'm 44, never smoked.
I also have it on my face, the cheek area when you smile and downward from the eye. Not baggy wrinkles, but several new, long, wide wrinkles.
Are there any procedures at the dermatologist or not too drastic things at a plastic surgeon to get rid of this?
The derm. has mentioned a few,don't understand them exactly.
I don't want to go thru all of that if it doesn't really work, like trying tons of stuff over the counter that doesn't work.
I swim, but can't exercise a lot due to joint/back problems.
Some say you can't get rid of it, then I read you can improve it with massaging and squeezing it.
An online Dr said small amount of fat cells are trapped there, and if you massage these away the wrinkles with smooth out, and to drink a lot of water. Hasn't seemed to help a lot.
