Skin Firming Cream/lotions

Had anybody started using any skin firming creams or lotions? If so, has anybody had any success with them?

There is a system called It Works! I am going to try them once I'm at goal but I have heard a million great things about it!! I definitely need it for my arms and tummy!!

My daughter used Bio oil during her pregnancy and she has no stretch marks or flabby skin she was a 0 before her pregnancy 110 lbs she went up to 165 during and within 6 weeks was a size 2. Ill be trying the Bio oil as soon as my incisions heal

I use bio oil on my face and neck. It's supposed to help sagging skin but I'm honestly not sure it helps for me and I've been using it for two years. I will say I hardly ever have breakouts and it's great for flakey skin.

Nivea skin firming had good reviews so I bought that. For incision marks, a plastic surgeon I work with suggested HEB brand silicone sheets. I cut them up and use those. They do work.

Now where would one find silicone sheets?

In Texas we have a grocery store called HEB. I just got it in their band aid area. Check your local grocery in the same department. They look like a big band aid and I cut down according to the size of my incision site. I figured I would need Biooil or mederma for them but these work and are cheap. Mine were $9 for 28 sheets. I can cover all sites with almost 1 sheet
