Can exercise tighten my skin without an abdominoplasty?
Unfortunately, exercise won’t tighten skin. It will certainly strengthen muscles and it might help tone and firm up your abdominal muscles so that they appear to be held in, but it won’t remove loose or hanging skin. If you do a lot of exercise and build up your muscles in a particular area, it might help fill out your skin somewhat in that area. But there’s no such thing as a spot exercise you can do to tighten loose or hanging skin. Only surgery can do that.
