Loose skin is a common problem after weight loss, particularly in aging women who lose a significant amount of weight. Our team of caring providers decided to talk about loose skin after weight loss in this month’s blog, including why it happens and what you can do about it.
Loose skin is an issue that many people don’t think about when they start their weight loss journey. But it makes sense when you know why it happens.
Studies show that most women start gaining weight before menopause and throughout their 50s, at an average rate of 1.5 pounds per year. When you gain weight (something that usually happens gradually over months and years) your skin stretches to accommodate the new fat.
When you lose weight, your skin retracts and tightens again — that is, if you’re young and have a plentiful supply of natural proteins called collagen and elastin.
Unfortunately, with age, your natural stores of collagen and elastin decline significantly. After age 20, you start losing 1% of your collagen and additional elastin every year.
Because your skin can’t bounce back like it used to when you were younger, you’re more likely to have sagging skin after weight loss — and the more weight you lose, the more significant the problem becomes.
At Ovation Wellness, we focus on whole-woman health. Our goal is getting to the bottom of your weight difficulties, providing effective weight management solutions, and helping you fine-tune your results so you can love the skin you’re in.
