Either after pregnancy, uncontrolled diet or lack of exercise, we can notice how our belly does not return to its original state and becomes flabby. One of the solutions is daily and disciplined exercise, but it is also important to take care of our diet.
Despite losing weight, we may find that the skin of the abdomen does not return to its natural state but acquires a state of flaccidity without any tension or smoothness. In addition, over the years, abdominal flaccidity worsens as the body loses its ability to generate collagen and elastin. For this reason, it is so common that from a mature age it is more difficult to get the abdomen back to its natural state.
Can it be prevented?
There are certain habits that we can incorporate in our daily life that will help us to preserve the skin tension and avoid abdominal flaccidity:
- Avoid sudden changes in weight. Avoid so-called miracle diets and opt for a complete and balanced diet.
- Take care of hydration.
- Apply moisturizing creams and lotions regularly.
- Avoid alcohol and tobacco intake.
- Exercise regularly.
- Avoid excessive exposure to the sun, as it accentuates skin aging.
- Avoid tight-fitting clothes that impede good circulation.
