What Happens to my skin

hello: I am in process for lap band procedure I am probebly

2 or 3 months befor the operation. My question is what happens to your skin after you lose 70 or 100lbs does it need another operation to tuck it in or it shrinks back.

There are so many factors regarding skin after weight loss. Heredity, elasticity, age, how rapid weight loss is, can all effect whether or not your skin shrinks.

I have a 130 pounds to lose and have lost 30 so far. I don't know what to expect as far as my skin. I am preparing myself for at least a breast lift and possibly a TT.

Ill be honest and tell you that in my case i have a TON of loose skin. I have bat wing arms, major saggy thigh skin and a good bit of tummy flab and boobs that are deflated. Ive decided to wait till im at my goal and then decide if i want to correct any of it. The fact is (as told to me by my physician) with an EXTREME weight loss there is only so much exercise alone will do. I can hide all the loose skin under the new pretty cloths i can now wear, but there was no way i could hide weighing 359lbs. So im a happy camper loose skin and all.
