Coconut oil may contribute to the appearance of tighter skin by moisturizing and nourishing it, which can enhance elasticity.
According to one reference:
- To combat skin sagging, natural ingredients like coconut oil can be incorporated into your skincare routine. Coconut oil deeply moisturizes and nourishes your skin, enhancing its elasticity. Using it as a nightly face moisturizer is recommended.
Therefore, while not a direct "skin tightener" in the surgical sense, coconut oil can improve skin's suppleness and perceived firmness through hydration and nourishment.
