Loose Skin & Any feedback on the "It Works" body wrap product?



Recommended Posts

Hi all. So I'm down over 110 lbs. so far and every additional pound at this point is a blessing. But we're heading into summer and my 46 yr. old legs look like they belong to an 80+ year old women (no offence) and I live in my bathing suit in the summertime. I'm a good year out from considering plastic surgery solutions and I work out six days a week. So......... does anyone out there have any feedback on the wrap product called "It Works"? I've seen lots of people promoting it on Facebook, seems like it's all the rage, but also seems like a pyramid program too. I'm told it is for firming and toning loose skin, but I'm wondering if it would make a noticeable difference for those of us that have lost over 100 lbs. Any feedback on this product or non-surgical ways to combat the loose skin on thighs would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for any insight

Loose skin can't be removed except by surgery. Muscle underneath the skin can be toned and for some people, a year or so after the fat has gone, there does seem to be a small amount of "pull back". But if skin has been very stretched, over many years, it's stretched.

Creams, wraps, treatments which promise more are misleading.

Have seen and used 20+ years ago if it is the same"Saran Wrap" product. Then a sauna. Had temporary results but alas, no long term help.

Best of luck... And wear your bathing suit proudly... You have lost a lot!

When I was in college, I discovered aquatards. I lost a ton of weight when I began training and running. I was very trim and fit, but i had really bad sagging thighs. (I now have ballooned and fill them out... but alas)

Aquatards are awesome because you can wear your swimsuit, have no chafing, its like compression for your thighs, and a black suit with a cute tank or shirt, makes a nice outfit during the summer. I LIVED in mine. I still wear one because when we ski and tube, it keeps me from mooning people. lol

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
