How to deal with loose skin "down there"? Ladies only maybe



Recommended Posts

Was just wondering if there is anyone out there that has saggy, loose, flabby skin on their genitals (pubis) after loosing all the weight. My weight loss is slow going and whatnot, but I am still down over 100lbs. from my highest and am now noticing this. I was ready and expecting the loose saggy skin everywhere else...so I have no idea why I didn;t for this area?!? lol Is there even any exercises to do for this area...it's not like it's muscle under it or anything? Just flab....and is there anyone else out there dealing with this? Am I alone here? LOL

Thanks, Val

Yup, just like dust, fat gets in everywhere.

I doubt that there is any exercise for a sad vulva, but there is reconstructive surgery. The procedure is one of the many miracles that plastic & reconstructive surgeons perform. I've known of a couple of women who went that route after they'd been at goal for a while and were very happy with the results. I don't recall whether either combined the procedure with another or if it's advisable to do so. One reported that her down there looked like the down there of a teenager. Not too shabby, huh?

Per the testimonies of many who've had tummy tucks -- this can get fixed as part of that procedure.

ok, never even thought about it as a part of the plastic surgery add ons :) I already have my surgeon picked out for when the time comes...Thanks everyone! Any clue as to what the procedure is called?

I think it's just a pubis lift.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
