No easy answer: Congratulations on your weight loss! Keep up the good work with a healthy diet and daily exercise to maintain it. Unfortunately, there is no easy answer for excess skin. Typically, the only solution is surgical in nature. I recommend waiting until you see that your weight is stable before undergoing surgery. Don't be discouraged by your skin. You've done something amazing for your health!

Hi there, continuous exercise is a great way to strengthen weakened muscles and keep the skin tight. For patients who cannot take this route for various reasons, such as after weight loss surgery, there are non-surgical and surgical procedures that can help you get your perfect skin. Contact a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area to learn about your options.
