Just wondering how much one can expect to lose just from having all that skin gone.

I lost 5.5# from plastics. I had very little fat left so didn't need Lipo.< /p>

Good question! I'm interested in the responses as well. I'm hoping to qualify for plastics in March for excess stomach and arm skin. I would love it if with that I was able to lose the last 5-10 pounds I want to lose.

I just had skin removed from belly area two days ago.

I only lost 2.5lbs. Dr said there was no fat with the tissue removed.

Thankfully I'm not as sore as I had anticipated.
