It depends upon the thickness or quality and age of the skin. If the weight has been lost slowly the skin has time to contract. Thicker or younger skin which have no stretch marks have a better chance of “tightening” or contracting. That being said, in most cases when a large amount of weight has been lost, the skin envelope is usually stretched and thinner and will need excision. Only an examination or at least a picture can tell you for sure what needs to be done. But in most cases body contouring surgery is necessary when 100 pounds has been lost. I applaud your discipline and tenacity in losing that amount of weight. Bravo!
