Loose skin after weight loss

[mdec85]

I have some mild loose skin under my chin/turkey neck. Rest of body is good, down about 75lbs. I'm 41 6-3 250lbs now. Will ghkcu injections help this issue? Any recommendations to help make this a little better? It's directly under my chin on my neck, it bothers me so much

I would say probably not much. I did it from jump and no loose skin after 110 down,

Get to <24 bmi and reassess. Can possibly get down to ~20.5 BMI or so, but maybe not needed that low. You can start taking GHK-Cu. It might help, probably not much.

RF microneedling, radiofrequency tightening, Ultherapy/HIFU, or CO2 laser if crepey texture might help once goal weight reached.

No, not really thats stretched skin, in that spot it doesnt tend to firm up if it hasn't already. There's endless posts on glp1 turkey necks here and on reddit. The only real fix is surgical.

Look at it as a badge of honor. You beat being overweight and that turkey neck is your trophy hotshot.

Headward makes very good points! You may learn to live with it and stay at it a while to keep the weight off. As you get older this might come back to some degree possibly. I had plastics 15 years ago, then gained 140lbs back. Then Tirz 3 years ago, helped me get that weight off and keep it off. I could have Plastics again, but not gonna spend that kinda money again unless I hit the lottery.

Yeah, it's really annoying. My older relatives always tell me, "It's incredible how much you look like your grandfather."

I'm thinking of trying some GHK Cu multi-pin locally if it doesn't get better in six months.

Consider taking higher dosages of 3mg/day. And microneedeling. But don't stay longer than one month on GHK-Cu, before pausing for another month.

Why?

 

[Kyli]

Why?

What exactly do you mean with Why? Why 3mg? Because 3 mg is considered a higher dose. It can restructure the tissue, that -at least after my research - can't be done effectively on a lower dose.

And why 1 month on, 1 month off? To get the body the chance to get rid of the Copper. Especially with such higher dosages.

FYI, a neck lift costs $12k-$30k in the US or $2k-$7k in South Korea, Thailand, Turkey, Mexico or Colombia.

Not really, but botox will help a little. I get a lot in my platysmal bands and under my chin for this very reason.

I don't know. I mean people get face lifts all the time (similar, but slightly different from neck lift). Hematoma risk needing intervention is ~1.8–2%, nerve injury <1%. And even these resolve themselves after treatment 6-12 months later 75-90% of the time. So if OP wants to try to get very lean like 20-22 BMI or less and it's still there and bothersome, then he can think about it, save money and weigh the risks.

I might get a face lift many years in the future just for wrinkles. Going to try GHK-Cu/microneeding/lasering, etc. sooner than that probably (GHK-Cu first because it's easy; the others if I feel like it later on).

Nope, my necks looks terrible - I continue to use klow hoping it may help a little but I haven't noticed any improvement. It bugs me a lot too but nothing short of surgery to really be done about it.

The gamble is going to thailand,mexico, turkey etc to save money of your face lift
not the facelift itself

Can confirm. Have lost 55lbs so far, but super loose skin under chin, on the neck. Went on GHK-Cu (2mg/daily) as well as microneedle/GHK-Cu cream. While it definitely improved the feel of my skin, the quality, and resiliency, it has not in fact fixed the loose skin on my neck, or at least not much.

Is it possible that glow70 could work better in this application. With the addition of the tb500 and bpc157 is there a chance this could help with the lose belly skin?

What helps with that loose belly skin is:
Fantastic genetics.

The longer you were fat the more stretched the skin is.
If you are younger its more apt to bounce back, but again that depends on genetics. Once the skin is very stretched. Any peptide fixes are like putting toothpaste back in the tube with a spoon.
On a time limit. With both eyes closed.

I'm telling myself to wait a year. My neck, where my ass used to be, my lower abdomen. I'm not judging ANY of them yet. I want to see what they do over time.

For reference, I started Klow in September at 165 lbs (start weight was 186 lbs) and have been cycling it at two months on, one month off, since then. Ghk-cu part of it is 2 mg per day, every day. It didn't save me. I don't know how much worse it would have been without it, though, which is why we'll all eventually have a freezer full of klow and no firm idea if it's doing anything.

There are exercises which really help with that especially at your age, if it is not too much. Must be well done a few times a day. I am 58 years old and doing the exercises since one month ago. Not completey dissappeared yet. But 2/3 is gone already. My best friend has recommended it. He has started it a few years ago and he doesn't have it anymore. He says that it takes a couple of months until you get rid of it. He still does the exercises once or twice a week. Just to keep it in good shape.

Some beauty clinics claim that two times lemon bottle injections solve that problem. I have ordered one kit 2 months ago. But did not use it. I don't thrust it. No risicos with exercises. Just give it a try.
