LMAO at people's misunderstanding of the meaning of "abuela", it means grandmother people. And I only know that because I live in Miami. But as far as your skin, try lotions and creams marketed as "firming" or "tightening". I'm afraid that won't have a miracle like result, and it won't be instant. I sell Mary Kay... they have some really good stuff for that. You can e-mail me if you're interested. I promise I won't be an uber-pushy salesperson.

The skin itself will not tighten, but the muscle under the skin can build to produce an apperance of tighter skin. I too have thin skin that has become a problem with every passing year. Sure you can try and be successful with plastic surgery, but will have to have it repeated every few years, too.
Work on muscle building exercises, dumbbells, resistance bands, things of that nature. It really makes a difference!

the best thing is to exercise to tighten-up ur muscles.
If ur muscles get tighten by default ur skin will get fixed with that muscles and u will get the tightened skin tooooo.
After that noone can call u as a rubber skinned man

What is abuela? I do know that skin once it loses its elasticity doesn't regain it, but you can perhaps help tone it up just by doing lots of light repetative exercises. Incidentally, have you lost weight? a lot of people claim their skin goes when they lose weight.

If your daughter's abuela feels rubbery, she should have it checked out. It might be cancerous.
