Body mass index (BMI) is a commonly used measure of the relationship between weight and height in weight loss and obesity treatment, but it does not provide the full picture of your health.

How to reduce the risk of loose skin after weight loss

Weight loss can bring significant positive changes for both health and wellbeing. At the same time, many people experience loose skin after substantial weight loss, especially if the weight has decreased rapidly or if they have lived with overweight or obesity for a long time.

Loose skin is a natural result of changes in the skin’s elasticity as the body adjusts. By understanding how the skin is affected after weight loss and which factors influence its elasticity, you can give the skin better conditions to tighten and feel firmer again.
