    Girlvert posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    Hi guys I'm 31 F from Australia. I'm 5'6 and 125 kilos (275 pounds). I had my initial consultation for vertical gastric sleeve and will be getting it done on the 15th of March 2017. It's 12 weeks till surgery and my biggest concern is loose skin. I can't see any way to get around it. I've read/watched heaps of blogs/vlogs and every one that has had vertical gastric sleeve surgery has loose skin to some degree. I can already tell my problem areas will be my inner thigh, upper arms, lower stomach and breasts. After obsessively scouring the Internet I put together a list of things that might help get my skin in the best shape before my surgery date. Am I being delusional or is it worth a shot? - Adequate Water and healthy diet - Vitamins (Vitamin A/C/E, Biotin, collagen) - Bone broth - Dry brushing - Renu28/Bio Oil/Vitamin E cream/oil - Weight training - Swimming - Pilates - Compression garments Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
