Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX, welcome again. Sorry for understanding question in different way. Picture which you have sent indicates gives me a clear idea of how to help you. It doesn't look like contact dermatitis so please don't use steroids.
The underlying causes could be related to aging, chronic smoking or chronic exposure to sun. Generally as we age the collagen fibers in the skin break up and skin tends to sag causing this problem. One good way to avoid that is to maintain a proper tone in the abdominal muscles. You need to gradual toning and not just abruptly start with toning exercises. Also eating good amount of antioxidant-rich food will help in good skin. If you are smoking, you need to stop it as soon as possible. It accelerates collagen breakdown.
However the instructions which I have given earlier will certainly help you except the steroid part. Do not use steroids for this.
