How to Tighten Loose Skin After Pregnancy?

Are you dealing with loose skin after pregnancy and wondering how you can tighten it? From daily routines to spa days and cosmetic treatments, you can reclaim the tight skin you had before pregnancy. Keep reading to discover the best techniques for tightening your skin and rediscovering your confidence.



Develop Good Habits


The first step in treating postpartum loose skin is developing good habits. This includes regular cardio exercises to increase blood flow and oxygenation and a well-balanced diet you know you can stick with. That means you don't deprive yourself of the foods you love but stay mindful about the effect food has on your body.


Before starting new routines, always consult your doctor.


Choose Food Deliberately


To aid with skin tightening after pregnancy, focus on eating healthy fats and proteins. Both can help you build muscle, and the proteins can also produce collagen, which helps tighten your skin. High protein is also an essential part of breastfeeding.


Strength Train Routinely


To help recover from pregnancy and skin sagging, build muscle and tone your body with regular strength training. Building muscle in your core requires exercises like sit-ups and push-ups, and planks can tighten the skin around your hips and glutes. If you're working with a professional trainer, let them know you just had a baby so they can adjust the exercises accordingly.


Drink Water


One of the most important steps in treating loose skin after pregnancy is staying hydrated. Water improves skin elasticity, which helps with tightening, and it also helps burn fat and reduce how easily your abdomen retains water. Start by drinking at least eight cups of water a day.


Use Massage Oil


To treat loose belly skin postpartum, try applying a plant-based massage oil. These can help tighten skin through their anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. For example, one 2021 study by Inonu University showed that almond oil could reduce stretch marks.


Carrier oils like jojoba or coconut can also improve elasticity. A professional massage can also increase blood flow and oxygenation, which helps tighten skin. Consider visiting the spa for a monthly massage.


Apply Firming Products


Firming products can help with tightening loose skin after childbirth. You can find a variety of products, so choose one you like, but confirm they have the following important ingredients:


  • Collagen, a protein responsible for healthy skin and joints

  • Retinoids, which increase cell proliferation and can reduce wrinkles

  • Vitamin C, which boosts collagen products and protects against sun damage
