Episode 3460: Dr. Neil explains why loose skin often occurs after significant weight loss, breaking down the roles of collagen, elastin, aging, and the speed of weight loss. He also explores why supplements, creams, and exercise usually don't provide meaningful skin tightening and discusses the medical options available for addressing excess skin. Quotes to ponder: "Collagen and elastin are just a couple of the proteins found in the skin and they help keep it elastic." "Weight loss that's a bit more gradual allows the skin to shrink back down as the weight is lost. With rapid weight loss the skin may not have as much time to catch up." "The most effective way to remove excess skin is through cosmetic surgery." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
