Requires a consult: This involves multiple surgeries over a prolonged course. A full consultation with a plastic surgeon is warranted.

Probably!: Congrats on the weight loss! Most body lift patients are pleased with getting rid of the excess skin but your results will, of course, depend on the specifics of your case. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon who is experienced with weight loss patients.
