Belly Skin after pregnancy

I'm noticing my belly skin has a drier texture than the skin around it from the stretch from the twins. It's like the elasticity is gone. Perhaps it's age- but this is depressing. I'm putting cocoa butter on it but I don't think it will snap back. Anyone out there have success and if so how? I can't get back to a gym yet so it's frustrating.

    My babies are almost 16 months old and my tummy still looks icky. I'm below my prePG weight, in prePG clothes. Its not dry, just soft and wrinkly. I hate it but I'm not sure what to do about it. I'm not much of a work out person anymore, having 3 LOs and all. I'm not even sure if working out would make it go back to normal.

    I'm only 4 weeks pp, but I noticed that my skin is a different texture and a little darker. I couldn' find anything online about it though. It's weird.
