Hi, I'm in my 50s and thanks to a stiff exercise regime have lost weight over the last 1 year. This has resulted in loose skin, around my neck, and upper arm...
I'm facing a similar problem. Male, lost a bunch of weight, in late 50's. So far the only option that seems workable is surgery to have it physically removed....
I just had to shout for joy at the fact that I had my cath removed this morning and just a short time ago I was able to void! I am so relieved :-) I called...
Doesn't potassium help with skin elasticity? I have had similar problems, especially with my upper arms and have had little luck eliminating it. But, I have...
It will help if part of the problem is dehydration. My skin becomes very lax... face, body when I become hypothyroid. I have a intercellular body water scale...
Not to change the subject, but has anyone here had thigh lift? Is so, how did it turn out? A lot of improvement? Scarring? Etc. Sent from my Verizon Wireless...
... Hi Margaret, I am in London so, can't comment on the price. I almost had rhinoplasty done last June but got cold feet (as I am not that yooung!) just the...
Thanks everybody for your responses, I too, like many of you are confused about my options. Some websites say exercises do not help at all, but yes, its sure...
I can't tell you about a thigh life but I am just home two days after an extended abdominoplasty. If anyone has any advice how to live throught this, feel free...
Hi Jane, I had the same surgery than yours and i can tell you to wear an abdominal belt, something tight around your abdomen and hips. The tightness will help...
Thanks Nathalie. I have been wearing my binder. I can't have it too tight, or I can't breathe deep enough. The Lortab is making me see double, so today I am...

When are you allowed to resume intimacy after a tummy tuck. I guess I felt embarassed to ask my surgeon, and I am sure she dont care..... On a side note - this...
I am considering having my breasts lifted, but the pictures I see all look better with augmentation. Here's my question, is it possible to stay the same size...
When I had a C section, I had to wait 8 wks. I'm not sure if there's a similar wait time, but that seems like a logical # to me based on the incision (sp?)....
I have some questions some of u may have the answers to. 1. I'm looking for a major overhaul (mid-life crisis) and I keep reading about these out of the...
I had a lift and augmentation and was thrilled with the results. I also had no prob remaining a D cup. The lift will help the perkiness, but probably not in...
