- Cucumbers. This vegetable has high levels of water, which help tone the skin.
How to use: Extract as much juice from it as possible, rub onto areas of your skin that seem loose to you and let it dry.
- Lemons. Their external use increases collagen production, which makes the skin smoother and more toned.
How to use: Apply lemon juice to your body and rub it on the affected areas.
- Aloe vera. Studies show that it works wonders on the skin, heals wounds and burns, and also serves as a moisturizer. So using aloe vera gel can greatly affect your loose skin and tighten it.
How to use: Break the leaf and extract the gel. Then apply it directly to the skin and leave it on for 15-20 minutes. Wash it off with water.
8. Consider radiofrequency procedures
Among the non-invasive procedures for treating skin wrinkles, radiofrequency is one of the most widely used. As studies show, it is a valuable procedure that can be used to tighten and rejuvenate photoaged skin and contour facial skin laxity. You may need several repeated treatments, but this procedure is quite safe.
9. Swim regularly
When we swim and move our arms, we perform resistance exercises, which, as a study suggests, are very effective for improving muscular strength. Strong muscles mean toned skin, and in this case, the underneath of the arm will be affected the most.
10. Pamper your skin
Be mindful of what kind of shampoo, soap, and dishwashing liquids you use. Many of them contain sulfates that can dry out and irritate your skin, making it less elastic. Too much sun exposure and chlorinated water can also affect the elasticity of your skin, so be careful with those too.
To protect your skin from becoming saggy, use scrubs to get rid of dead skin cells and increase circulation. Also, you should apply a lotion or cream to your skin daily. Make sure it contains ingredients like aloe vera and vitamins C, E, and A to hydrate your skin and increase collagen and elastin formation.
