How can you tighten loose skin after pregnancy?

Abdominoplasty: Tummy tuck or abdominoplasty is usually what is needed to tighten loose skin after pregnancy. Some of the skin will recoil in the first few months, but skin with a lot of stretch marks likely won't fully recoil. Visit a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss this further.

Tummy Tuck: Your tummy should be back to normal around 3 months after your delivery. A good diet and exercise program is the best way to reclaim your pre-pregnancy figure. If your skin stretched and has not shrunk back down you may be a candidate for a tummy tuck where the excess skin is removed and the abdominal muscles are tightened. I wait 6 months after a c-section to perform a tummy tuck.
