Flaccid Skin

Flaccid skin can be caused by aging or disease, and in either cases can look unsightly. Intrusive treatments and surgeries are the only permanent ways to fix flaccid skin. Vitamins  can be used  to improve the texture and tone of your skin, making looseness less noticeable.

Vitamin A

Vitamin A in the form of tretinon, or Retina –A, has been used extensively as a topical treatment cream to tighten and firm sagging, loose skin. Although it is not medically proven that ingesting vitamin A will produce the same effect, Vitamin A is a necessary component in maintaining healthy skin. If you wish to avoid ingesting large amounts of vitamins in pill form, you can look to eggs, cheese, milk and fish oil to attain a proper level of Vitamin A. Vitamin A contains Beta carotene, which is optimal in the fight against flaccid skin. The best source of vitamin A, also called Retinol, is found in darker vegetables, such as kale, spinach and collard greens, as well as carrots—which carry one of the highest concentrations of this vitamin.

Vitamin B

Vitamin B  boosts the metabolism. An increase in the metabolism can greatly benefit flaccid skin, by reducing fat content and strengthening cardiovascular health for improved blood circulation. Vitamin B is also a natural regulator of oils produced by the skin, and can act as a healing agent for damaged and flaccid skin. Vitamin B works to keep the skin hydrated as well. Foods that a high level of vitamin B include: chicken , whole  grain bread, beef and seafood. Suggests eating hard-boiled eggs, low-fat yogurts, drinking a glass of milk or consuming raisin bran cereals to attain the proper amounts of vitamin B.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E can be supplemented to treat a variety of conditions in the body and is essential for your overall health. A  antioxidant, this vitamin promotes blood cell creation, which ensures enough oxygen gets to your brain and other areas of your body. By eating vitaminE- rich foods like nuts, you can prevent wrinkles and promote a smoother skin texture, making lose areas of skin less noticeable.
